Joseph Priestley on Judaism & Hinduism, 1799

Item Details

Description

Heading:
Author: Priestley, Joseph
Title: A Comparison of the Institutions of Moses with Those of the Hindoos and other Ancient Nations; with Remarks on Mr Dupui's Origin of all Religions...
Place Published: Northumberland
Publisher:Printed for the author by A. Kennedy
Date Published: 1799
Description:

xxvii, 428, [4] pp. (8vo) 21.2x12.7 cm (8¼x5"), full period calf, morocco spine label, lettering and rule in gilt. First Edition.

A work of comparative theology. The title continues: "The Laws and Institutions of Moses Methodized, an Address to the Jews on the present state of the World and the Prophecies relating to it. Bookplate of one Abner Phelps, M.D. on pastedown.

Joseph Priestley (1733-1804) was a British natural philosopher, dissenting clergyman, political theorist, theologian, and educator. Today he is best remembered for his isolation of "dephlogisticated air" (oxygen), but his determination to defend phlogiston theory left him isolated within the scientific community. His outspoken support of the French Revolution aroused public and governmental suspicion; he was eventually forced to flee in 1791, first to London and then to the United States after a mob burned down his home and church. He spent the last ten years of his life living in Northumberland County, Pennsylvania.

Condition

Light wear and scuffing to calf; pages age-toned, with scattered soiling and foxing throughout; very good.
