Excerpt from Cosmography or Philosophical Views of the Universe In presenting this little book to the world, Ir did not intend to make any prefatory remarks, inasmuch as I had expressed a word here and there in its pages by way of apology for what may be considered innovation or presumption. But, since the work has passed the press, I have felt more than ever the necessity of great accuracy in the pursuit of its important inquiries; and, though my convictions of the correctness of its main features are continually strengthened, I would have my ideas expressed with such precision, that there should appear nothing like error in the facts stated, or in the philosophy set forth.

`Therefore this terror and darkness of the mind Not by the sun's rays, nor the bright shafts of day, Must be dispersed, as is most necessary, But by the face of nature and her laws.' Lucretius' poem On the Nature of the Universe combines a scientific and philosophical treatise with some of the greatest poetry ever written. With intense moral fervour Lucretius demonstrates to humanity that in death there is nothing to fear since the soul is mortal, and the world and everything in it is governed not by the gods, but by the mechanical laws of nature. By believing this, men can live in peace of mind and happiness. Lucretius bases his argument on the atomic theory expounded by the Greek philosopher Epicurus. His poem explores sensation, sex, cosmology, meteorology, and geology through acute observation of the beauties of the natural world and with moving sympathy for man's place in it. Sir Ronald Melville's accessible and accurate verse translation is complemented by an introduction and notes situating Lucretius' scientific theories within the thought of 1st century BCE Rome and discussing the Epicurean philosophy that was his inspiration and why the issues Lucretius' poem raisies about the scientific and poetical views of the world continue to be important. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

Excerpt from A Pantheistic View of the Universe There are many things about this mysterious Universe Of ours which we should all like to know. Our concern is not so much with the facts about the Universe supplied to us by science as with the significance Of these facts. We want to know not only what the Universe is but why it is what it is.

Excerpt from Studies in Hegelian Cosmology Chapters V and VI of this book appeared, nearly in their present form, in the International Journal of Ethics. (July 1896, and July 1897.) The other chapters have not been previously published. In referring to Hegel's works I have used the Collected Edition, the publication of which began in 1832. For purposes of quotation I have generally availed myself of Wallace's translation of the Encyclopaedia, of Dyde's translation of the Philosophy of Law, and of Spiers' and Sanderson's translation of the Philosophy of Religion. I am much indebted to Mr G. L. Dickinson, of King's College in Cambridge, and to my wife, for their kindness in reading this book before its publication, and assisting me with many valuable suggestions. The changes in the second edition are not numerous. When they are more than verbal, I have called attention to them in notes.

Excerpt from A Theory of the Universe A geological truth must command our assent as powerfully as that of the existence of our own minds. President Hitchcock says: Geology is not indeed insensible to the displays of the divine character which are exhibited on the present theatre of the world. Indeed, she distinctly recognizes the act which is now passing as the most perfect of all. Yet this scene of the great drama she regards as only one of the units of a similar series of changes that have gone by, or will hereafter come; the chain stretches so far into the eternity that is past and the eternity that is to come, that the extremities are lost to mortal Vision.
