First Collected Edition. Printed under the supervision of Archbishop Tenison and published four years after Browne's death, it contains all of the principal works published during his lifetime as well as Certain Miscellany Tracts. "Browne is widely considered one of the most original writers in the English language.

He has a paradoxical and ambiguous place in the history of ideas, as equally, a devout Christian, a promoter of the new inductive science, and an adherent of ancient esoteric learning. For these reasons, one literary critic succinctly assessed him as "an instance of scientific reason lit up by mysticism in the Church of England"." (Wikipedia) Bib. Osleriana 4522.
