Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Euthanasia: A Poem in Four Cantos of Spenserian Meter on the Discovery of the Northwest Passage by Sir John Franklin is a literary work written by Erasmus Henry Brodie and published in 1866. The poem is structured into four cantos, each written in Spenserian meter, a poetic form popularized by the English poet Edmund Spenser. The poem is centered around the discovery of the Northwest Passage by Sir John Franklin, a British explorer who led an expedition to find a sea route connecting the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans through the Arctic. The expedition famously ended in disaster, with Franklin and his crew perishing in the harsh Arctic environment. Brodie uses the poem to explore themes of death, mortality, and the ethics of euthanasia. The title, Euthanasia, refers to the practice of intentionally ending a person's life to relieve their suffering. Brodie raises questions about whether euthanasia would have been a humane option for Franklin and his crew as they faced starvation, disease, and extreme cold. The poem is a reflection on the human condition and the limits of our mortality. Brodie's use of Spenserian meter gives the poem a lyrical quality, while the subject matter adds a somber and contemplative tone. Overall, Euthanasia is a thought-provoking work of literature that explores complex ethical and philosophical questions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

6pp., 12mo. In good condition, on lightly aged paper. Brodie's hand is not easy to decipher, but the letter is fulsome in its praise of Brougham and his latest work. Brodie begins by acknowledging the receipt of 'the last volume of Lord Brougham's Works published by you', a copy of which he had 'previously got as a subscriber'. He continues: 'In my poor apprehension it is even, if possible, superior to its predecessor, & more than justifies the character I formerly ventured to sketch of that illustrious individual', He continues in his praise, with reference to 'Dean Swift', 'Captn. Macheath and his associates' and 'Peachum'. In his view, never did a Lord Chancellor 'enjoy such popularity. But times are altered. The power of conferring favours is in other hands & all who expect patronage here, trouble at his resuming the vantage ground so greatly his due'. He continues with a discussion of the position of the press in the matter of Brougham's reputation. He concludes: 'Why do I trouble you with all this: - It is simply as an introduction to a statement that, did I know how to get it published, I should be proud & happy to down a notice or review of this volume.' In a postscript he claims to 'know the author of the article [reviewing the volume] in the N[orth]. British Review. It discloses of the spirit I have alluded to'.…

2pp, 12mo. Bifolium on grey paper. In good condition, lightly aged, with thin strip of paper from mount adhering to blank reverse of second leaf. The year has been noted in another hand. The recipient is not identified. The letter begins: 'My dear sir, | I have made arrangements with my excellent friend Mr. Jowett of Baliol Coll. that he should offer to you rooms in Balliol. You will be there with our common friend Brodie, and will I am quite sure find nothing that will not add to your comfort and enjoyment in the Meeting'. He ends in the hope that the recipient will 'find this plan consonant to your wishes'. The letter relates to the meeting at Oxford on 23 June 1847 of the British Association for the Advancement of Science. 'Mr. Jowett' is Benjamin Jowett (1817-1893), later Master of Balliol; and 'Brodie' is the celebrated surgeon Sir Benjamin Collins Brodie (1783-1862). From the distinguished autograph collection of the psychiatrist Richard Alfred Hunter (1923-1981), whose collection of 7000 works relating to psychiatry is now in Cambridge University Library. Hunter and his mother Ida Macalpine had a particular interest in the illness of King George III, and their book 'George III and the Mad Business' (1969) suggested the diagnosis of porphyria popularised by Alan Bennett in his play 'The Madness of# George III'.…
