Memoir of James Harris is a biographical account of the life and achievements of James Harris, a prominent English philosopher and politician of the 18th century. The book is written by Thomas Norton Harper, an American author and historian, and was first published in 1884. The memoir details Harris's early life and education, his career as a diplomat in Europe, and his involvement in politics as a Member of Parliament. It also explores Harris's contributions to the field of philosophy, particularly his work on aesthetics and his influence on the development of the British school of philosophy.Harper's account draws on Harris's personal papers, letters, and other primary sources to provide a vivid portrayal of the man and his times. The book offers insights into the intellectual and political climate of 18th-century England, as well as the personal struggles and triumphs of one of its most influential figures.Overall, Memoir of James Harris is a valuable resource for scholars and students of philosophy, politics, and history, as well as anyone interested in the life and legacy of this important figure in British intellectual history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
