Synopsis
The Present State Of The Republick Of Letters is a mid-18th-century scholarly periodical that surveys recent books and critical debates across history, theology, philology, and science. The September 1731 issue (Part 2 of 4) and its December 1731–January 1732 counterpart present bibliographic notices, reviews, and extracts that map a Europe-wide network of learning in London, Leipzig, and beyond. The core articles discuss Samuel Shuckford’s Sacred and Prophetic History of the World, Vol. II, including seven objections to Newtonian chronology and the argument that sacred writers did not intend an exhaustive history of antiquity. Reports on Theodore Arnold’s High German translation and on the collaboration with Christoph Wolle illustrate concerns with fidelity and editorial practice. Other items praise Samuel Clarke’s sermons, summarize a beginner-friendly edition of Demosthenes by Mounteney, and cover medical treatises on smallpox and lithotomy. The miscellany spans ecclesiastical controversy, genealogies of rulers, Euclid’s Elements, and the Royal Society’s experiments, highlighting a shared commitment to reasoned argument, cross-reference, and defense of Christian orthodoxy through informed discourse.
