Fifth edition, with "Künrath" in the title imprint, page 192 misnumbered 92, and errata omitted. First published in 1670, " . . . an extension to political thought of his ethical views . . . the Tractatus contains the first clear statement of the independence of each other of philosophy and religion, in that speculation and precepts of conduct cannot collide" (PMM). The date of 1670 was retained in editions subsequent to the first, "since a new edition would provide new ammunition for the groups clamoring for the ban of the book" (Bamberger). Bamberger T.5; Printing and the Mind of Man 153; Van der Linde 3.
