Ptolemy's Almagest by Ptolemy Pdf
Ptolemy's Almagest is one of the most influential scientific works in history. A masterpiece of technical exposition, it was the basic textbook of astronomy for more than a thousand years, and still is the main source for our knowledge of ancient astronomy. This translation, based on the standard Greek text of Heiberg, makes the work accessible to English readers in an intelligible and reliable form. It contains numerous corrections derived from medieval Arabic translations and extensive footnotes that take account of the great progress in understanding the work made in this century, due to the discovery of Babylonian records and other researches. It is designed to stand by itself as an interpretation of the original, but it will also be useful as an aid to reading the Greek text.

Absalom and Achitophel by John Dryden Pdf
"Absalom and Achitophel" is a profound political allegory crafted by John Dryden, a distinguished English poet and playwright during the 17th century. Published in 1681, the poem ingeniously employs biblical characters, particularly Absalom's rebellion against King David, to allegorically mirror the contemporary political tumult of the Monmouth Rebellion and the Exclusion Crisis in England. Dryden's satirical brilliance illuminates the narrative, offering a sharp critique of the political figures involved, with Absalom symbolizing James Scott (Duke of Monmouth) and Achitophel representing the Earl of Shaftesbury. The use of heroic couplets, a rhyming couplet form, adds to the poem's literary significance, creating a rhythmic and engaging narrative. "Absalom and Achitophel" stands not only as a poetic masterpiece but also as a historical commentary, providing a window into the intricate political and social dynamics of the late 17th century. Readers interested in the intersection of political allegory, satire, and historical events will find this work to be a captivating exploration within the rich tapestry of English literature. Copies of this influential poem can be explored in collections of classic literature, libraries, and online platforms dedicated to preserving literary heritage.

An Historical Syntax of the English Language by Fredericus Theodorus Visser Pdf
The aim of this study is to provide an outline of the development, from the earliest times to the present day, of all the English syntatical constructions with a verbal form as their nucleus. Professor Visser's description is based on a very extensive collection of documentary material covering every kind of writing in prose and poetry in the Old, Middle and Modern periods, drawing on quotations illustrating syntactical phenomena in Bosworth & Toller, O.E.D., M.M.E.D., E.D.D., and D.O.S.T., but also making reference to obsolete usages not found in any grammar, and to the views of English and American grammarians of the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries on the various syntactical constructions. The volumes of this work originally appeared in the early sixties and seventies and were well received by readers and reviewers. Volumes 1 and 2 underwent correction in the light of these early reactions. We should like to think that this work will continue to be available to the scholarly world without great increases in the price. We are however only reprinting the individual volumes in small numbers, and so we have decided that in order to guarantee a consistent reprint and pricing policy for the future, the work should be available henceforth only as a set of four volumes.
