    Description

    Leather Binding

    John Locke (1632-1704) was an English philosopher known as one of the most important figures of the Enlightenment and as the 'father of Liberalism'. Following in the footsteps of Sir Francis Bacon as an early empiricist, his theory of mind is seen as an originator of identity and self. His major works covered politics, education, human understanding, Christianity and toleration.

    The eleventh edition of this work.

    Complete in ten volumes, each bound in contemporary leather with marbled boards.

    Volume I is illustrated with a frontispiece and a folding table.

    A fascinating collection of philosophical writings by one of the most important figures of the British Enlightenment.

    Condition

    In a half calf binding. Externally generally smart, with noticeable loss to the head of volumes I, VIII and X. Spines are otherwise slightly rubbed in places, and boards and extremities similarly have a little wear. Offsetting from a contemporary ownership bookplate, which has since been removed, to the front pastedown of each volume. Internally, binding is generally firm. Pages are generally bright and clean, with the odd spot. Front endpaper of volume III is slightly loose but still bound.
