A treatise on miracles
€ 250,00
A treatise on miracles by Jacques Serces, minister of King's Chapel of St. James, London, inspired by Samuel Clark, who held that miracles could be used as evidence for the claim that Christianity is the true religion.
Interestingly, Baron d'Holbach, famous French champion of the Radical Enlightenment, owned a copy, as is evident from the 1789 Catalogue des livres de la bibliotheque de feu M. le baron d'Holbach, which lists a copy under 213.
Title
Jaques Serces. Traité sur les miracles. Dans lequel on prouve que le diable n'en sauroit faire pour confirmer l'erreur; ou l'on fait voir, par plusieurs Exemples tirez de l'histoire Sainte & Profane, que ceux qu'on attribue ne sont qu'un effet de l'imposture ou de l'adresse des Hommes; Et ou l'on examine le Systême opposé, tel que l'a établi le Dr. Samuel Clarke, dans le Chap. XIX du II. vol. de son Traité sur la Religion Naturelle & Chretienne.
Amsterdam, Chez Pierre Humbert, 1729.
Physical Description
8vo (15,8 x 9,4 cm). [44], 371, [1 blank] pp. With some headpieces built up from cast fleurons. Modern half calf, marbled sides, red sprinkled edges. In very good condition.
