Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Improvement of Human Reason, Exhibited in the Life of Hayy Ibn Yakzan: Written in Arabic Above 600 Years Ago Reverend Sir. Hayy Ibn Yaqzan returns to you again, in a dress different from that which you sent him out in. Wherever he comes, he acknowledges you for his first and best master; and confesses that his being put in a capacity to travel through Europe is owing to your hand. I could not in equity send him to any other person, you being the sole proprietor. And as your learning enables you to do him justice, so your candor will incline you to pardon what is by me done amiss. Both which qualifications you enjoy, as a Paternal Inheritance, descending from the reverend and learned Dr. Pococke, the glory and ornament of our age and nation. Whose memory I much reverence, and how much I acknowledge myself indebted to him for his learned works, I thought I could no way express better than by taking some opportunity to pay my respects to you, Sir, the worthy son of so great a father. And no fitter bearer than Hayy Ibn Yaqzan, with whose character and language you are so well acquainted, and to whom you have long ago shown so great a respect that I have no reason to fear but he will be welcome.
