Original cloth. Zustand: Sehr gut. VI, 303 p. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Some staining on binding, otherwise very good and clean. / Etwas angeschmutzter Einband, sonst sehr gut und sauber. - English prose of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries has no "Casebook" or "Critical Heritage," and there is no general account of the critical reception of the subject. But if the term Renaissance remains serviceable as a description of a literary period, then Sidney's Arcadia, Burton's Anatomy of Melancholy, the writings of Bacon, Milton, and Browne, and above all the development of the English Bible, are clearly part of that cultural phenomenon. There are, of course, many studies of Renaissance prose written by and for specialist scholars, but little that can be offered to the student as a way into reading these rich but often challenging texts. So the present volume is designed principally to act as an introduction to some of the major figures and works in the field, though some of the essays will undoubtedly also be of interest to the specialist.

Roverella, because it bears a title of pleasure and health. But since the force and keenness of your intellect, the consistency of your character and honorable life, and your greatness in teaching and learning are truly obvious to me and all learned men, I have preferred to make you, rather than anyone else, the patron of the work of my sleepless nights, the judge of whether anything written here was done wrongly. -- I know well enough that the spiteful will speak out vehemently that I ought not to have written about pleasure for the best and most continent of men, but let those voluptuaries who pretend to be Stoics (who make judgments with upraised eyebrows, not about human experience but only about the sounds of words) say what evil well-considered pleasure has in it, for the term is neutral, neither good nor bad, as is health. Far be it from Platina to write to the holiest of men about the pleasure which the intemperate and libidinous derive from self-indulgence and a variety of foods and from the titillations of sexual interests. I speak about that pleasure which derives from continence in food and those things which human nature seeks, for up to this time I have seen no one so libidinous and incontinent that he was not touched by some pleasure if he had ever drawn back from coveted pursuits which were more than sufficient. -- As I see it, the authority of Cicero holds sway among these men. As Aristotle makes Plato, Pythagoras, Zeno, Democritus, Chrysippus, Parmenides, and Heraclitus the basis and substance of his learning and teaching, so does he use Epicurus, for Cicero had no one with whom he could dispute more safely than with the dead Epicurus. Also important to me will be the authority of Seneca, Lucretius, and Laertius, who extoll Epicurus with wonderful praises as the best and holiest of men. They say, however, that it is not fitting for a wise man to be consumed with sorrow, since the absence of trouble and pain makes pleasure lasting. What evil, nay what that is not good, does pleasure have in it? For pleasure that arises from right action leads to happiness as a doctor's skill leads a sick man to health.
