Book Kent Town Guides  1763 1900

Download or read book Kent Town Guides 1763 1900 written by R. J. Goulden and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Kent from the late-18th century many principle booksellers sold guides to the sights of their own towns and neighbourhoods. The printing and sale of such guidebooks, often illustrated with extra maps and engravings, were important elements in the work of provincial printers and booksellers, bringing a regular income from visitors. In larger places, such as Canterbury, there was strong competition between rival booksellers. Equally, these guides often carried advertisements for local businesses, which makes this category of publication an important source of information for researchers. However, because many publishers preferred not to print the date of publication for fear that their guide would quickly seem out of date, it has been difficult for bibliographers to provide definitive lists of what was published when, and by whom.

Book   Remov d from human eyes    Madness and Poetry 1676 1774

Download or read book Remov d from human eyes Madness and Poetry 1676 1774 written by Natali, Ilaria and published by Firenze University Press. This book was released on 2016-08-30 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The years 1676 and 1774 marked two turning points in the social and legal treatment of madness in England. In 1676, London’s Bethlehem Hospital expanded in grand new premises, and in 1774 the Madhouses Act attempted to limit confinement of the insane. This study explores almost a century of the English history of madness through the texts of five poets who were considered mentally troubled according to contemporary standards: James Carkesse, Anne Finch, William Collins, Christopher Smart and William Cowper were hospitalized, sequestered or exiled from society. Their works cope with representations of insanity, medical definitions or practices, imputed illness, and the judging eye of the ‘sane other’, shedding new light on the dis/continuities in the notion of madness of this period.

Book Berkeley s Philosophy of Mathematics

Download or read book Berkeley s Philosophy of Mathematics written by Douglas M. Jesseph and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1993-09-15 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this first modern, critical assessment of the place of mathematics in Berkeley's philosophy and Berkeley's place in the history of mathematics, Douglas M. Jesseph provides a bold reinterpretation of Berkeley's work. Jesseph challenges the prevailing view that Berkeley's mathematical writings are peripheral to his philosophy and argues that mathematics is in fact central to his thought, developing out of his critique of abstraction. Jesseph's argument situates Berkeley's ideas within the larger historical and intellectual context of the Scientific Revolution. Jesseph begins with Berkeley's radical opposition to the received view of mathematics in the philosophy of the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries, when mathematics was considered a "science of abstractions." Since this view seriously conflicted with Berkeley's critique of abstract ideas, Jesseph contends that he was forced to come up with a nonabstract philosophy of mathematics. Jesseph examines Berkeley's unique treatments of geometry and arithmetic and his famous critique of the calculus in The Analyst. By putting Berkeley's mathematical writings in the perspective of his larger philosophical project and examining their impact on eighteenth-century British mathematics, Jesseph makes a major contribution to philosophy and to the history and philosophy of science.
