Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - sehr guter Zustand / very good condition - Thomas Reids Inquiry has long been recognised as a classic text in the philosophy of mind. Since its first publication in 1764 there have followed no fewer than forty editions. Yet Reid scholars have been acutely aware of proceeding without the full textual evidence. There exist thousands of unpublished manuscript pages in Reids hand, many of which relate directly to the composition of the Inquiry. Furthermore, no account has been taken of the successive alterations made to the four editions published in Reids lifetime. The present edition, therefore, presents a complete, critically edited text of the Inquiry, accompanied by a judicious selection of manuscript evidence relating to its composition. -- The volume contains the editors preface presenting the raison d'etre for the edition followed by an introduction giving the central argument of the Inquiry by means of an historical and philosophical account of its formation; an account which also indicates the significance of the MSS in the section containing related documents. The critical text is based on the fourth life-time edition (1785), while the textual notes include bibliographical details and allusions, translations, references to secondary literature and selected passages from Reids MSS.
