Sir Thomas Browne's Hydriotaphia and The Garden of Cyrus is a collection of two essays written by the English author and physician in the 17th century. The first essay, Hydriotaphia, is a reflection on burial customs and the meaning behind the various ways that people have buried their dead throughout history. Browne explores the symbolism and significance of different burial practices, from simple interment to elaborate tombs and mausoleums. He also considers the philosophical and religious implications of death and the afterlife.The second essay, The Garden of Cyrus, is a more playful and imaginative work that explores the symbolism of the number five and the shape of the quincunx in nature and art. Browne draws on a wide range of sources, including classical mythology, biblical stories, and scientific observations, to explore the various ways in which this pattern appears in the world around us.Together, these two essays offer a fascinating insight into the mind of one of the most original and creative thinkers of the 17th century. Browne's prose is rich and evocative, blending scientific observation with poetic imagery to create a unique and compelling vision of the natural world and our place within it. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of ideas, philosophy, or the art of creative nonfiction.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1896 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Religio MediciThe Religion of a DoctorSir Thomas BrowneTHE COMPLETE CLASSICReligio Medici (The Religion of a Doctor) by Sir Thomas Browne is a spiritual testament and an early psychological self-portrait. Published in 1643 after an unauthorized version was distributed the previous year, it became a European best-seller which brought its author fame at home and abroad.Structured upon the Christian virtues of Faith and Hope (part 1) and Charity (part 2), Browne expresses his beliefs in the doctrine of sola fide, the existence of hell, the Last Judgment, the resurrection and other tenets of Protestantism.Throughout Religio Medici Browne uses scientific imagery to illustrate religious truths as part of his discussion on the relationship of science to religion, a topic which has lost none of its contemporary relevance.

Penned during a relaxation of licences for printing-presses and State censorship thus catering for the psychological uncertainties, social debate and millenarian expectations engendered during the Protectorate of Cromwell; The Garden of Cyrus is Browne's contribution to what was a 'boom period' and the single-most decade of interest in esoterica England has ever witnessed. Browne's Neoplatonic and Neopythagorean vision of the interconnection of art and nature via various symbols, primarily the number five and the quincunx pattern, along with their variants, the figure X and lattice design, caused little stir when first published, however, its slender, but highly-compressed pages of imagery, symbolism and associative thought are exemplary of a fundamental quest of alchemist and Hermetic philosopher alike, namely, proof of the wisdom of God, and demonstrable evidence of intelligent design. The Discourse also includes early recorded usage of the words 'prototype' and 'archetype' in the English language.
