Seller's Description:
Good Condition. Cover and pages a little bent. Annotations and text underlined in a few places. Sound overall. Publisher's note: "This is the first edition of A Country Not Named, a utopian work written by Francis Lodwick, merchant, language planner, and F.R.S. This remarkable text survives in a sole manuscript and has remained virtually unknown until now. Lodwick, who also attempted the creation of an artificial language, is usually discussed as a figures in the history of linguistics, but this work, as well as his other manuscripts, reveals his wider interests. Lodwick was theologically heterodox, and his utopia embodies his ideas on the vast age of the world and the nature and origin of religion."--book jacket Size: 22.9 x 15.2 x 1.3 cm. xii, 148 pp. Shipped Weight: Under 500 grams.
