Nova Solyma The Ideal City Or Jerusalem Regained PDF Download

Excerpt from Nova Solyma, Vol. 1: The Ideal City; Or Jerusalem Regained The critics seem to have been both blind and deaf. They gave no encouraging praise, and no disheartening condemnation. They simply took no notice. And so this great work of seventeenth-century art vanished from the sight of men. A few copies were put away in college libraries, Where they rested for years undisturbed and dust covered in their original positions, and have so continued to rest for two centuries and a half, lost to the world. It was a real loss in any case, for in this book, Nova Solyma, we get the intimate personal philosophy of a great and independent mind living in the stirring times just before the Commonwealth.
