Description
Boston University: Dean Howard Thurman, 1962. Limited Edition. Cloth. Very good. Signed limited edition of Temptations of Jesus, a series of five sermons by Dean Howard Thurman in Marsh Chapel at Boston University in 1962.. Large octavo, 62pp. Solid text block, wear along spine, faint ring mark to front cover. Previous ownership bookplate to front free endpaper, occasional passages highlighted in yellow. Hand-numbered by the author on the title page, this copy labeled "Number 391." Signed by the author above the limitation. An incredibly scarce example. Howard Thurman (1899-1981) was a prominent minister, academic, and civil rights leader of the 20th century. He served as dean of Rankin Chapel at Howard University from 1932-1944, then as dean of Marsh Chapel at Boston University from 1953-1965, where he delivered the sermons published here. Thurman's dedication to sharing the theology of radical nonviolence influenced many civil rights movement leaders, including Martin Luther King, Jr., who was mentored by Thurman while attending Boston University.

Description
Paris: Chez la Veuve Savoye, 1775 Nouvelle edition. Contemporary mottled calf, gilt. Lightly browned, occasional faint spotting, otherwise a very good, tight copy. 12mo., xlviii, 430 pages. Although Arnauld and Nicole were strongly Cartesian in their emphasis on method rather than the theory of pure logic, their work forged a revolution in the study of logic, leaving behind both inadequate scholastic and outmoded Ramesian approaches. The most famous logic text of the seventeenth century, known as the Port-Royal Logic, it set the form of manuals of logic for the next two hundred years and every edition is distinct as changes and additions were incorporated constantly. Not in Brunet.
