Thora Ilin Bayer and Donald Phillip Verene have collected a series of texts that help us to understand the progress of Vico's thinking, culminating in the definitive version of the \u003ci\u003eNew Science\u003c\/i\u003e, which was published in 1744.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBayer and Verene provide useful introductions both to the collection as a whole and to the individual writings. What emerges is a clear picture of the decades-long process through which Vico elaborated his revolutionary theory of history and culture. Of particular interest are the first sketch of the new science from his earlier work, the \u003ci\u003eUniversal Law\u003c\/i\u003e, and Vico's response to the false book notice regarding the first version of his New Science.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe volume also includes additions to the 1744 edition that Vico had written out but that do not appear in the English translations--including his brief chapter on the \"Reprehension of the Metaphysics of Descartes, Spinoza, and Locke\"--and a bibliography of all of Vico's writings that have appeared in English. \u003ci\u003eGiambattista Vico: Keys to the \"New Science\"\u003c\/i\u003e is a unique and vital companion for anyone reading or rereading this landmark of Western intellectual history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThora Ilin Bayer is RosaMary Foundation Professor of Liberal Arts at Xavier University of Louisiana.
