Logic: XXV.44a




Source: Nachl. Johann Gottfried Herder XXV.44a (4°, 8 pp., Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin – Preußischer Kulturbesitz). Pages 1.


1 p. (16.5 x 20.5 cm), stemming from an 8 pp. signature. Text: ink. The first three pages are filled with notes on physical geography (Oceans); the fourth page has four lines on logic; pp. 5-7 are blank; p. 8 consists of a list of names and amounts of money written next to each (perhaps Herder’s students at the Collegium Fridericianum). The physical geography notes are a fragment, separate from Herder’s longer sets of notes on physical geography.

Previous transcriptions: none.
