| Description: |
The correspondence between the philosopher George Berkeley (1685-1753) and Sir John Percival (1711-70), later Earl of Egmont. |
| Synopsis: |
First published in 1914, this book contains the correspondence between the philosopher George Berkeley (1685-1753), afterwards Bishop of Cloyne, and Sir John Percival (1711-70), later Earl of Egmont, from 1709 until Berkeley's death. The letters reflect the growing affection between these two important figures in Anglo-Irish history, and give intimate first-person accounts of the events of each man's life and career. Extracts from Percival's journal and a biographical note on the lives, careers and friendship of both men are also included. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in eighteenth-century Anglo-Irish politics. |
