Sinopsis

Excerpt from Two Discourses of the Objects, Pleasures, and Advantages: I. Of Science; II. Of Political Science

IN order fully to understand the advantages and the pleasures which are derived from an acquaint ance with any Science, it is necessary to become acquainted with that Science and it would there fore be impossible to convey a complete knowledge of the benefits conferred by a. Study of the various Sciences which have hitherto been cultivated by philosophers, without teaching all the branches of them. But a very distinct idea may be given of those benefits, by explaining the nature and objects of the different Sciences it may be shown, by ex amples, how much use and gratification there is in learning a part of any one branch of knowledge; and it may thence be inferred, how great reason there is to learn the whole.
