PITCAIRNE, ARCHIBALD

The Latin Poems. Edited and translated by John & Winifred Macqueen. (Bibliotheca Latinitatis Novae) ISBN 9789023245995

Assen, Royal van Gorcum, 2009. XVI, 484 pp. As new. Orig. cloth. English translation. The Latin verse of the Scottish physician and surgeon Archibald Pitcairne (1652-1713) was once well-known for its quality and for its support of the exiled British royal family of Stuart. Almost paradoxically, it also reflects the new world of Newtonian science. All his poetry is occasional, with a distinctive, often sardonic, turn of phrase. Selections were published in the eighteenth century, one afterwards included as an appendix to his collected medical writings. This is the first complete, critical edition and includes some recent discoveries. The editors have used all surviving texts, MS and printed. Neo-Latin texts and translations. ISBN: 9789023245995

[SPINOZA]

Tractatus Theologico-Politicus Continens dissertationes aliquot, quibus ostenditur libertatem philosophandi non tantum salva pietate, & reipublica pace posse concedi: sed eandem nisi cum pace reipublicae, ipsaque pietate tolli non posse.

Hamburgi [= Amsterdam], apud Henricum Künrath [= Jan Rieuwertsz], 1670, (after 1677). 4to. [2 blanks, 12], 233, [1, blank] pp. A few leaves very slightly foxed. Traces of ticket on first free endpaper. Shelf number in pen on upper pastedown. Exceptionally well preserved, completely in original state. Fine copy. Contemp. vellum. 2 slight dents in frontboard. Binding very slightly warped. Kingma-Offenberg 7 (T5). Bamberger 684. "The purpose of the State is freedom". This is a central theme of the Tractatus Theologico-Politicus. Spinoza's second publication is a passionate appeal for freedom of thought and self-expression. The conditions for a secular, democratic states are formulated in a superior way. With the publication, Spinoza clearly takes position in the ongoing power struggle in the republic, risking his scientific carreer and his life. The book appeared anonymously, under fictitious imprint, but to many it was no secret that the author was `the atheist Jew from Voorburg'. From the beginning the book was under constant attack of the clergy. Spinoza's allies in high places could not prevent the book from being banned, but for a long time they managed to avoid effective measures against it. First edition, fifth issue. Probably printed after 1677. Kingma/ Offenberg, in their introduction to the complicated printing history of the book, argue that in spite of all the research the problem of the sequence of the 1670-dated issues is not yet definitively solved.
