Hard Cover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. Boards lightly soiled and stained. 1748 Hard Cover. [xvi], 608, [13] pp. 8vo. Vellum binding, hand lettered spine, sprinkled edges. An extensive history of philosophy, by the author whose five-volume Historia Critica Philosophiae formed the basis of William Enfield's The History of Philosophy, the first English language history of philosophy to treat thinkers beyond ancient history (Locke, Newton, Hobbes, Leibniz, Descartes, etc.). Brucker is known primarily for his massive Historia Critica Philosophiae (5 volumes, 1742-44 with an Appendix, 1767). Passmore calls that work "the standard history of philosophy [in the 18th century], to which both Kant and the Encyclopaedists, for example, were very considerably indebted." ('The Idea of a History of Philosophy' in The Historiography of the History of Philosophy ('S-Gravenhage 1965). The present work contains 28 papers, divided into three sections: Historico-Philosophica (pp. 1-257); Historico-Literaria (pp. 258-552); and Philologico-Critica (pp. 553-608). The nine "observations" of the first part deal mainly with ancient philosophy, with papers on: "number" in Plato and Pythagorian philosophy (Brucker's dissertation); Pyrrhonism; Stoicism; the Alexandrian School, et al.; as well as "Supplementa ad historiam de ideis exhibens" (pp. 110-147), a supplement to Brucker's first book (1723). The second part opens (pp. 258-290) with a paper that contains the first printing of six letters from Leibniz to Spizel (Ravier 435). This section, many of whose subjects appear to have connections with Augsburg, also includes observations on Melanchthon's Hypotyposes theologicae (1521), sketches of the lives of Brucker's mentor, Philipp Jakob Crophius, the humanist Hieronymous Wolf, and his student David Hoeschel, as well as biographical sketches of several physicians. Osler 6614: "B[ough]t 29.X.18 for the 3 medical lives [i.e. J. Martius, A.P. Gasser, and L. Schroeck]." To these three one might add a fourth, "De Vita Matthiae Schenckii" (pp. 334-351).

Brucker was born at Augsburg in 1696. By the age of 22, he had taken his degree at the University of Jena and the following year, 1719, he published his dissertation, Tentamen Introdctionis in Historiam Doctinæ de Ideis - the work that he substantially amplified and published as the present work in 1723. Brucker broke significant new ground with this book by proposing that a "history of philosophy" was something that could even be written. He was joined in this pursuit by Giambattista Vico who similarly called for a "history of human ideas." Brucker traced the progress of human understanding from Thales right up until John Locke and Leibniz.Eighteen years after this first attempt at a comprehensive presentation of the history of human ideas, the first volume of his great work, Historia Critica Philsophiæ, a mundi incunabulis ad norstram usque ætatem deducta (A Critical History of Philosophy from the beginning of the world all the way up to our own lesser age), was published in Leipzig. Four other weighty quartos followed in 1744, completing the first edition of his elaborate history.Such was the success of this publication that the entire first printing - consisting of four thousand copies - was sold in twenty-three years. Given the obvious need, a new and more perfect edition - the consummation of a half century of Brucker's labors devoted to the history of philosophy - was released in 1767 in six volumes. The sixth volume of that set, consisting entirely of supplement and corrections, was applicable to the first as well as to the second edition. Contemporary full calf with five raised bands on the spine. Original spine label (black on tan) partly chipped away. The top and bottom of the spine are also chipped. With the bookplate of a former owner to J. H. Anderhub) along with small purple stamp for same owner to front free endpaper. Four lines of contemporary ink text to verso of first blank. Top of title page has a contemporary ink inscription reading: "Monast. Benedictoburam(?)". Pencil marginalia lines down the sides of some paragraphs in text. Overall, a worn and unsophisticated (but charming) copy of this important, interesting and well-indexed work by the first writer to bring his critical judgement to bear on the history of human ideas.
