The son of a London mercer, Thomas Browne pursued a career as
doctor and scholar; after extensive travels in Europe he settled
down in Yorkshire and wrote, over time, the series of reflections
now known as Religio Medici. As a self-portrait of a mind and soul
and a prominent landmark in the history of ideas, Religio Medici
proved a document of inexhaustible interest and persisting value;
and ever since its first publication in 1642 it has exerted a
powerful influence on its readers. This classic edition, first
published in 1953, offers a carefully edited version of the
'authorised' edition of 1643, including readings preserved in
extant manuscript copies of the work.
