Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Works of Sir William Temple, Bart Complete, Vol. 1 of 4 In this new edition of the celebrated Sir William Temple´s Works his Political Tracts are printed according to the order of time in which they were written; with this exception, that as the essay On the original and nature of government, and the Observations on the United Netherlands, will give the reader a just idea of government in general, and in particular of the constitution, revenue, and forces of that country which was the scene of the author´s important negotiations, these are placed first, as the best introduction to the subsequent tracts. The Author, unhappily for posterity, committed to the flames the First Part of the Memoirs of his negotiations, for reasons which are guessed at by Dr. Swift (see vol. ii. p. 500.); but to supply that loss he permitted the publication of the Letters he wrote during the period which made the subject of that part: those Letters are therefore, in this edition, prefixed to the Second Part of his Memoirs.
