Présentation de l'éditeur

The proper study of mankind is Man. At the beginning of European Philosophy, (whether we start from the seven sages, or from Pythagoras,) Know thyself was the precept first given in charge to man ;and, from that day to this, the injunction has been ever reiterated, and its wisdom has always been admitted. Has the precept been obeyed? In aspiration it has, if not in realization; for every struggle of philosophy has been to obtain a more distinct conception of human nature and destiny.
