Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is one of the earliest attempts to systematically examine the attributes assumed by the gods in ancient philosophy. The author, a philosopher himself, presents the arguments of several schools of thought in turn, using a series of dialogues between supporters of different viewpoints. With each philosopher presenting their case and then having it questioned by the others, this book is an excellent way to get to grips with classical metaphysics. The author's decision to focus on the nature of the gods works well, as it allows us to see the same problems being tackled with a variety of different approaches, which many readers will find useful for their own studies or as a foundation for further reading. The work of this philosopher ultimately went on to form a major influence on Christian theology, so this book provides insights into the roots of that system of belief as well.

Hardcover. Condizione: Near fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: very good +. Rackham, Arthur (illustratore). First Edition. First trade edition with additional Rackham illustrations on enlarged paper, quarto size, 568 pp., in original dust jacket. This book was first published in 1898 with only twelve illustrations, this being the first trade edition of the newly enlarged version of 1907, which had many new illustrations. British illustrator Arthur Rackham (1867-1939) is credited with renewing interest in book illustration at a vital moment of advances in printing technology. The subtle colours and thin feral lines were unlike anything that had come before, as if plucked from the fog of a wild imagination, breathing new life into the whole of children's book illustration. The somewhat grotesque quality of Rackham's figures are perfectly suited for the metrical myths, legends, and ghost stories written by Richard Harris Barham (1788-1845), an English clergyman who is best known by his pen name Thomas Ingoldsby. ___DESCRIPTION: Publisher's olive-green buckram with gilt pictorial stamping and lettering to the front and spine, top-edge gilt, fore- and tail-edges uncut, illustrated olive endpapers, title in red and olive-green within pictorial border, richly illustrated with twenty-four colour plates mounted on heavy olive paper with captioned tissue guards, twelve full-page tinted illustrations, and sixty-six drawings within the text; quarto size (10 1/8" by 7 7/8"), pagination: [i-viii] ix-xix 1-549, reprint of the 1898 edition on enlarged paper with additional illustrations, first trade thus.

Anning Bell and two others, both flaps blank. ___CONDITION: A near fine copy, the cloth binding clean, the gilt on both front and spine bright and unrubbed, the corners straight with a faint hint of rubbing, a strong, square text block with solid hinges, internally bright and free of prior owner markings, the plates all present as called for; foxing limited to a couple of faint spots on the title-page, minor slight shelf wear at edges (none so much as to cause fraying to the cloth), overall a near fine copy. The dust jacket is quite uncommon and suffers only from some minor chipping to joints and corners (with old prior owner tape repair to these on verso), none obscuring the text, overall very bright and clean; very good. ___CITATION: Latimore and Haskell, p. 30; Riall, p. 83. ___POSTAGE: International customers, please note that additional postage may apply as the standard does not always cover costs; please inquire for details. ___Swan's Fine Books is pleased to be a member of the ABAA, ILAB, and IOBA and we stand behind every book we sell.
