Complete second edition of the second German translation of Ricardo’s Principles, based on the third English edition of 1821. The first edition of this translation was published in 1837, based on the second English edition (1819) as the translator was unable to obtain a copy of the third; a companion volume of commentary by the translator followed in 1838. This second edition was in fact issued without the commentary, the latter being reissued in 1905 as a separate work (although in an entirely revised, i.e. rewritten form by Karl Diehl (1864–1943), professor at Königsberg and, later, at Freiburg, who dedicates his labour to the 70-year-old Adolf Wagner), but is offered here to complete the set.Sraffa X, 377; cf. Carpenter XXXVII (11) for the first edition of this translation.
