This is the second volume of the Clarendon edition of Robert
Burton's The Anatomy of Melancholy, containing the text and textual
apparatus for `The Second Partition'. A third volume of text and
two volumes of commentary will follow. In `The Second Partition',
Burton treats the spectrum of cures for melancholy, generally
following the organization and analysis of symptoms and causes of
the disorder as presented in `The First Partition'. Here is found
Burton's remarkable synthesis of cultural geography and climatic
influences on temperament in the `Digression of the Ayre' and his
long excursion in the consolatio tradition. The final two sections
of the partition present remedies from physics and surgery.
