Documentation for Template:RQ:More Philosophical Writings. [edit]
This page contains usage information, categories, interwiki links and other content describing the template.

Usage

[edit]

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote from a collection of Henry More's works entitled A Collection of Several Philosophical Writings of Dr Henry More (2nd edition, 1662); the 1st edition (imprint unavailable) is not currently available online. It can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at the Internet Archive.

Parameters

[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |1= or |title=mandatory: the name of the title quoted from, as indicated in the first column of the following table:
A Collection of Several Philosophical Writings of Dr Henry More
Parameter value Result First page number
Antidote An Antidote against Atheism: or, An Appeal to the Natural Faculties of the Mind of Man, whether there Be Not a God. [...] The Third Edition [] (1662) unnumbered page
Antidote Appendix An Appendix to the foregoing Antidote against Atheism (1662) page 145
Conjectura Cabbalistica Conjectura Cabbalistica. Or, A Conjectural Essay of Interpreting the Mind of Moses, in the Three First Chapters of Genesis, According to a Threefold Cabbala: Viz. Literal, Philosophical, Mystical, or, Divinely Moral. (1653) unnumbered page
Defence The Defence of the Threefold Cabbala. (1653) page 41
Enthusiasm Enthusiasmus Triumphatus; or, A Brief Discourse of the Nature, Causes, Kinds, and Cure of Enthusiasm (1662) unnumbered page
Epistolae Henrici Mori Epistolæ Quatuor ad Renatum Des-cartes: [] (1662) unnumbered page
Immortality The Immortality of the Soul, so Farre forth as It is Demonstrable from the Knowledge of Nature and the Light of Reason (1659) unnumbered page
Preface The Preface General page iii
  • |chapter= and |chaptername= – if a title is divided into chapters, use |chapter= to specify the chapter number (if any) in uppercase Roman numerals, and |chaptername= the name of the chapter. If quoting from one of the chapters indicated in the second column of the following table, give |chaptername= the value indicated in the first column:
Parameter value Result
Antidote Epistle Dedicatory To the Right Honorable, the Lady Anne, Viscountess Conway and Kilulta
Conjectura Epistle Dedicatory To the Eminently Learned and Truly Religious Dr [Ralph] Cudworth, Master of Christ’s Colledge, and Hebrew Professor in the University of Cambridge
Immortality Epistle Dedicatory To the Right Honourable, Edward, Lord Viscount Conway and Kilulta
As the above chapters are unpaginated, use |2= or |page= to specify the "page number" assigned by the Internet Archive to the URL of the webpage to be linked to. For example, if the URL is https://archive.org/details/collectionofseve00more/page/n38/mode/1up, specify |page=38.
  • |section= and |sectionname=Enthusiasmus Triumphatus is divided into sections rather than chapters. Use |section= to specify the section number in uppercase Roman numerals, and |sectionname= the name of the section.
  • |para= or |paragraph= – a paragraph number quoted from in Arabic numerals.
  • |date= – if quoting from one of the letters exchanged between More and René Descartes in Henrici Mori Epistolæ Quatuor ad Renatum Des-cartes, the date of the letter. The date will be converted from the Julian to the Gregorian calendar.
  • |2= or |page=, or |pages=mandatory in some cases: the page number(s) quoted from. When quoting a range of pages, note the following:
    • Separate the first and last pages of the range with an en dash, like this: |pages=10–11.
    • You must also use |pageref= to specify the page number that the template should link to (usually the page on which the Wiktionary entry appears).
This parameter must be specified to have the template determine, in some cases, the book number (I–III) or part of the title quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.

The page number starts from 1 in An Antidote against Atheism, Enthusiasmus Triumphatus, The Immortality of the Soul, and Conjectura Cabbalistica.

  • |3=, |text=, or |passage= – the passage to be quoted.
  • |footer= – a comment about the passage quoted.
  • |brackets= – use |brackets=on to surround a quotation with brackets. This indicates that the quotation either contains a mere mention of a term (for example, "some people find the word manoeuvre hard to spell") rather than an actual use of it (for example, "we need to manoeuvre carefully to avoid causing upset"), or does not provide an actual instance of a term but provides information about related terms.
  • |termlang= – as the letters in Henrici Mori Epistolæ Quatuor ad Renatum Des-cartes are in Latin, if any of the letters is quoted from, by default the template categorizes entries on which it is placed into Category:Latin terms with quotations. To have the template categorize an entry into Category:English terms with quotations instead, specify |termlang=en.
