Thomasius. Luden, p. 162.
[1256] Schmid, pp. 488-92, gives a sketch of some of the contents.
[1257] Pusey, p. 86, note. It is surprising that Pusey does not make
more account of Thomasius's naturalistic treatment of polygamy and
suicide, which he showed to be not criminal in terms of natural law.
[1258] Compare Weber, Gesch. der deutschen Lit. § 81 (ed. 1880,
pp. 90-91); Pusey, as cited, p. 114. note; Enfield's Hist. of
Philos. (abst. of Brucker's Hist. crit. philos.), 1840. pp. 610-612;
Ueberweg, ii, 115; and Schlegel's note in Reid's Mosheim, p. 790,
with Karl Hillebrand, Six Lect. on the Hist. of German Thought, 1880,
pp. 64-65. There is a modern monograph by A. Nicoladoni, Christian
Thomasius; ein Beitrag zur Geschichte der Aufklärung, 1888.
