Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Justus Lipsius' De Constantia (1584) is one of the most important
and interesting of sixteenth century Humanist texts. A dialogue in
two books, conceived as a philosophical consolation for those
suffering through contemporary religious wars, De Constantia proved
immensely popular in its day and formed the inspiration for what
has become known as 'Neo-stoicism'. This movement advocated the
revival of Stoic ethics in a form that would be palatable to a
Christian audience. In De Constantia Lipsius deploys Stoic
arguments concerning appropriate attitudes towards emotions and
external events. He also makes clear which parts of stoic
philosophy must be rejected, including its materialism and its
determinism. De Constantia was translated into a number of
vernacular languages soon after its original publication in Latin.
Of the English translations that were made, that by Sir John
Stradling (1595) became a classic; it was last reprinted in 1939.
The present edition offers a lightly revised version of Stradling's
translation, updated for modern readers, along with a new
introduction, notes and bibliography.

The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly
growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by
advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve
the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own:
digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works
in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these
high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts
are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries,
undergraduate students, and independent scholars.Delve into what it
was like to live during the eighteenth century by reading the
first-hand accounts of everyday people, including city dwellers and
farmers, businessmen and bankers, artisans and merchants, artists
and their patrons, politicians and their constituents. Original
texts make the American, French, and Industrial revolutions vividly
contemporary.++++The below data was compiled from various
