Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Of the Conduct of the Understanding: With Biography, Critical Opinions, and Explanatory Notes Locke´s or rather chapter ´Of the Conduct of the Understanding´ though often praised, and occasionally republished in a separate form, has never been edited with notes. It is thought that such assistance as is offered to the student in this edition may cause it to be more widely read and more generally useful. The testimony accorded to this book by Hallam, in his Introduction to the Literature of Europe, may fittingly occupy a position in its editor´s preface: - ´I cannot think any parent or instructor justified in neglecting to put this little treatise in the hands of a boy about the time when the reasoning faculties become developed. It will give him a sober and serious, not flippant or self-conceited, independency of thinking; and, while it teaches how to distrust ourselves and to watch those prejudices which necessarily grow up from one cause or another, will inspire a reasonable confidence in what he has well considered, by taking off a little of that deference to authority which is the more to be regretted in its excess that, like its cousin-german, party-spirit, it is frequently united to loyalty of heart and the generous enthusiasm of youth.´ About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
