E-Catalogue #8: Enlightened Times

E-Catalogue #8: Enlightened Times

Now that the nights are growing longer, we are pleased to announce our latest e-catalogue, Enlightened Times.  Combat winter doldrums and general taedium vitae with these sparkling 18th-century offerings.  The Age of Reason is well-represented across a variety of genres and languages, from figurative leading lights like Johnson, Swift, and Pascal to literal electricity (with bonus Jansenism vs. Jesuitry!).

 

“Truth is so obscure in these times, and falsehood so established, that, unless we love the truth, we cannot know it.” - Blaise Pascal, Pensées

E-Catalogue #4: Medical Motley

Sometimes jaw-dropping, always eye-opening! Our latest catalogue features an assortment of medical perspectives from the late 1700’s to the present, and the images are a surrealistic delight.  A fine sampling of both quackery and brilliant medical insight!
