Erstausgabe
8vo, pp. [vi], 477; contemporary panelled calf, rebacked; early MS notes preserved on endpaper. First edition of this major work by the Irish cleric Peter Browne (d. 1735), provost of Trinity College Dublin and then Bishop of Cork and Ross. Browne sought to extend thinking about human understanding, drawing on Locke and William King, and to confute the deists such as Toland, against whom he had already written. His pupil George Berkeley, however, dismissed his arguments as ineffective.

Hardcover. Zustand: g- to vg. Octavo (8 x 5 1/4"). [6], 477pp (Text), [3]pp (Publisher's advertisement). 19th-century black- and blind-stamped full calf, with gold lettering to spine. Raised bands. "Peter Browne (1665-1735), Bishop of Cork, became known as a writer for his attack upon Toland's "Christianity Not Mysterious." The present work attacks John Locke in his "Essay on Human Understanding" for what Browne termed "sensationalism. "The doctrine of analogy is applied here also. Deals as well with the thinking matter controversy, with our knowledge of body, and our knowledge of self. Browne develops a conception of notions for what he earlier called 'mediate ideas'" (see: Yolton, John Locke: A Reference Guide, p. 20). Binding rubbed along edges, with some abrasion to leather on spine. Closed tears along joints, but covers still firmly attached. Stamp of the University of California Riverside on inside of front cover, and at top and bottom edge. Binding in overall good-, interior in very good condition. Second Edition with Corrections and Amendments.

8vo, pp. [iv], 554; a little browned, but otherwise a good solid copy, rebound in modern brown cloth. First and only edition: this is a work by Bishop Peter Browne (d. 1735), Bishop of Cork and Ross, but formerly Provost of Trinity Dublin, where he had taught George Berkeley. This book was in part intended as a refutation of Berkeley, in particular of Alciphron, published the previous year; but Berkeley himself took little notice of it, claiming that it had been almost ignored in Ireland.

Erstausgabe
First edition of the author's systematic, anonymous analysis of human epistemology, his "first major contribution to philosophical theology" (Winnett, p. 102), and a challenge to John Locke's theory of ideas. In 1696, John Toland published Christianity not Mysterious, in which he adapts John Locke's theories of knowledge to contend that all Christian doctrines had to be comprehensible by human reason and not rooted simply in faith. As this argument could be construed to suggest that the mystery of the Trinity should be rejected, Toland's tract sparked a considerable Deist controversy. In Human Understanding, Peter Browne (c.1665-1735), Bishop of Cork and Ross, responds to the arguments of Toland and Locke by arguing that Christian mysteries are, indeed, rationally comprehensible. By so doing, Browne refines his famous argument that knowledge of God was essentially possible by rational analogy. The work provoked an attack on Browne by George Berkeley, his one-time pupil, who drew on the Human Understanding to question Browne's religious orthodoxy. Arthur Robert Winnett, Peter Browne: provost, bishop, metaphysician, 1974. Octavo (196 x 116 mm). Contemporary sprinkled calf, spine with raised bands forming six compartments, ruled and decorated in gilt, shadow of lost label, covers panelled in gilt with crown cornerpieces, edges sprinkled red. Woodcut tailpieces. Joints and extremities neatly restored. Lightly bumped and scuffed, minor browning and cosmetic splits to endpapers, slight foxing to endpapers and contents, faint offsetting to contents: a very good copy.
