In den Warenkorb8vo (22.5 x 14 cm); a little toned; modern green morocco, covers ruled in gilt, spine lettered in gilt, very good; xv, [1], 233, [1]pp. An early reprint edition of John Digby's English-language translation of the Greek philosopher Epicurus' (341-270 BC) moral teachings, comprising his 'Wise Man' sayings, Letter to Menoeceus, and excerpts from his maxims, his biography, and Isocrates' Advice to Demonicus. The major source for Epicurean doctrine, and Digby's translation, is Diogenes Laertius' Lives and Opinions of Eminent Philosophers, which was written roughly 600 years after the events it describes. Epicurus taught that philosophy's purpose is to obtain ultimate happiness (eudaimonia) free from physical pain and mental distress. As such, Epicureanism was condemned as a form of hedonism in the middle ages, and Epicurus considered a patron of gluttony, drunkenness and vice. A renewed interest in his teachings emerged in the seventeenth century, where his atomist description of nature gained credence in Royal Society circles, and was soon considered the best model for explaining the physical world. This 1818 printing was edited by one Joseph Tela, perhaps a pseudonym for Joseph Webb, editor of The Philosophical Library. …

The Morals of Confucius, originally published in 1691, was the first work in English to introduce readers to the teachings of the Chinese philosopher, who lived during the 'Spring and Autumn' period of the fifth and sixth centuries BC. His teachings grew into a defined ideology that emphasised self-cultivation of virtue, family responsibility, and ethical governance. The text is translated from Pierre Savouret's French-language La Morale de Confucius published in 1688, itself translated and abridged from the Latin compendiums of Confucius' teachings compiled by the Jesuit missionaries Prospero Intorcetta (1625-1696) and Philippe Couplet (1623-1693), who reached the Qing Empire in the 1650s. This 1818 printing was edited by one Joseph Tela, perhaps a pseudonym for Joseph Webb, editor of The Philosophical Library. …
