The Concept of Freedom; An Interpretation of the Fall in terms of Self-Consciousness. A Thesis presented for the degree of Doctor of Divinity by Philip Austin Louis Meldrum of St. John's College, Durham University, 1960

An original typescript thesis for a Doctor of Divinity Degree at Durham University. Almost certainly a unique document of considerable depth in terms of content, and of substantial physical size - being of large folio size.

The Concept of Freedom; An Interpretation of the Fall in terms of Self-Consciousness. A Thesis presented for the degree of Doctor of Divinity by Philip Austin Louis Meldrum of St. John's College, Durham, to The University, Durham, In the Year of Grace One Thousand Nineteen Hundred and Sixty.

Overall in good condition, although the binding has considerable wear. The outer cover has leather spine and corners with marbled paper over boards. A large part of the leather spine is missing, and outer joints are weak - particularly the front cover which is almost detached. Covers are bumped, rubbed and with losses to covering.

The contents are in fact very good - the text is bright and clean throughout. The text contains numerous hand-drawn diagrams, as well as tipped in images. Included is a separate folded large chart about Philosophy.

An impressive work from a dedicated theology scholar. There is a presentation inscription at the front which indicates this book was presented as a gift to John David Philip Meldrum in 1978, from his father (the author) and mother.
