Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Abridgment of Mr. Locke´s Essay: Concerning Human Understanding Honoured Sir, I send you this imperfect draught of your excellent Essay concerning Human Understanding; which, I must confess, falls as much short of the Perfection, as it does of the length of the original. Nevertheless, as I lately intimated to you (and you were pleased to think, that what I propos´d in reference to this Design, would not be wholly lost Labour) I am not without Hopes, that it may in this contracted Form, prove in some Measure serviceable to that noble End, which you have so successfully aimed at in it, viz. The Advancement of Real and useful Knowledge. The Inducement which moved me to think of abridging it, was a Consideration purely extrinsical to the Work itself; and in effect no other than this; that it would be better suited to the Ease and Convenience of some sort of Readers, when reduced into this narrow Compass.
