Collection of 52 Volumes Encyclopedia Brittanica Great Books of the Western World 1952 First Edition
Collection
of 52 Volumes Encyclopedia Brittanica Great Books of the Western World 1952 First
Edition 19th Printing 1971
FOR SALE IS A 52 VOLUME COLLECTION OF THE GREAT BOOKS OF
THE WESTERN WORLD. PUBLISHED BY WILLIAM BENTON IT IS THE 1971 NINETEENTH
PRINTING OF THE 1952 FIRST EDITION. TWO VOLUMES NO 23 (MACHIAVELLI/HOBBS) AND 24
(RABELAIS) ARE MISSING FROM THIS SET.
The Great Books of the Western World is a landmark
54-volume collection published by Encyclopædia Britannica (founded in 1768 in
Edinburgh, Scotland) in 1952, designed to make the core canon of Western
thought accessible to the general public. Great Books of the Western World
contains 517 works from 130 of the most renowned minds throughout history. The
complete set is 54 volumes, most of which contain multiple books. Edited by
Mortimer Adler and Robert Hutchins, it features influential works across
philosophy, science, literature, and politics.
The project originated from a desire
for a "core curriculum" of foundational texts, initiated by faculty
at Columbia University and later championed by the University of Chicago in the
1920s-1940s.The first edition was published in 1952 in 54 volumes, with a
heavily revised and expanded second edition released in 1990.
The Syntopicon was a key feature, this
two-volume index (Volume 1 and 2 organized by Adler) categorized the books into
102 "Great Ideas," such as "Angel," "God,"
"Man," and "State," allowing readers to trace these ideas
across centuries.
The set includes a wide range of
thinkers from Aristotle, Homer and Plato to Darwin and Freud, often featuring
complete, unabridged works

William Philip Schreiner (1857-1919) 'was [the first South African-born] prime minister of Cape Colony [1898-1900] at the outbreak of the South African War (1899-1902); he was the younger brother of author and political activist Olive Schreiner. A moderate politician, he tried to prevent the war and later was a champion of African civil rights' ('Encyclopaedia Britannica' online). Loosely inserted is a vintage cabinet card photograph (image size 150 × 105 mm, on the printed mount of the photographer James Bruton, Cape Town) of Schreiner and his wife, Frances Hester, née Reitz. The ink inscription on the verso, 'Fan [sic] & Will, Jan 1884', would appear to be in Schreiner's hand. The mount has been unevenly trimmed along the bottom edge (well clear of the image itself), and there is a small tape stain near the top edge of the photograph and at the head of the title leaf, where the cabinet card had originally been attached. The sepia-toned photograph has a few light surface marks visible in a raking light, but overall it is in very good condition.
