Corners lightly bumped, small tear to top front cover, otherwise fine. $150. * Fourth English edition of De Jure Naturae et Gentium. In 1662 Samuel Pufendorf [1632-1694] was appointed to the first modern professorship in natural law (at the University of Heidelberg). In 1670 he became professor of natural law at the University of Lund in Sweden. First published in 1672, this is his principal work and a landmark in the history of natural and international law. It proposed a thorough system of private, public, and international law based on natural law. Beginning with a consideration of fundamental legal ideas and their various divisions, Pufendorf proceeded to a discussion of the validity of customs, the doctrines of necessity and innate human reason. The work is significant in part because it developed principles introduced by Grotius and Hobbes. Unlike Hobbes, Pufendorf argued that peace, not war, was the state of nature, and he proposed that international law was not restricted to Christendom.

Softcover. Etat : New. Reprint. Language: English. Approximately 322 pages. English: Print-on-demand reprint. Original edition : 1893. Text in English. This scholarly work compiles thoughtful essays on religion, philosophy, and related subjects, reflecting the intellectual currents of the late 19th century. The volume includes contributions from two distinct authors: Monsieur Pascal and Basil Kennet. Pascal's sections likely explore themes of faith, reason, and the human condition, while Kennet's writings may address theological debates, moral philosophy, or historical perspectives on religious thought.
