In his original Latin text Descartes expresses himself with great lucidity and elegance, and there is enormous interest, even for those who are not fluent in Latin, in seeing how the famous concepts and arguments of his great masterpiece unfold in the original language. John Cottingham's acclaimed English translation of the work is presented here in a facing-page edition alongside the original Latin text. Students of classical philosophy have long had the benefit of dual-language editions, and the availability of such a resource for the canonical works of the early-modern period is long overdue. This volume now makes available, in an invaluable dual-language format, one of the most seminal texts of Western philosophy. 0aFirst philosophy 0aMethodology 0aKnowledge, Theory of1 aCottingham, John,eeditor of compilation.08iPrint version: z978052119138840uhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1017/CBO9781139042895 c228686d228686
