REF.35369

Year 1798

Paris; Chez H. J. Jansen, Biblioteca Imprimeur; In-8th of VIII 434 (2) pages and 3 prints; Illustrated; Bound

"Chef d´escadre de la République Batave; avec des observations sur la Navigation et le Commerce de ces Contrées, ainsi que sur le Caractère, les Moeurs et la Religion des Peuples qui les habítent. Traduit du Hollandois par H. J. Jansen. Orné de trois cartes." A travelogue written by Johan Splinter Stavorinus, a naval officer of the Batavian Republic, originally published in Dutch and translated into French by Hendrik Jansen in 1798. The work recounts an extensive maritime journey that began in the province of Zeeland in the Netherlands, passing the Cape of Good Hope, and continuing on to Batavia (present-day Jakarta), Bantam (in Indonesia), and Bengal (in India), between 1768 and 1771. Throughout the book, Stavorinus offers a rich description of the places he visited, addressing cultural, social, and economic aspects of the colonial regions under European rule and the local peoples. He carefully observes customs, religions, clothing, architecture, and trade practices, in addition to recounting significant historical events such as the siege of Chinsura, the famine in the kingdom of Bahar, and the earthquakes in Batavia. The author also describes daily life in the colonies, including details on food, diseases, punishments applied to slaves, and the administrative organization of the Dutch possessions. Illustrated with three fold-out maps that illustrate the voyage route. Written in a typical 18th-century style, the text combines personal observations with reflections on maritime trade, navigation, and colonial policy. The work is considered a valuable source for the study of the European presence in Asia during the modern period and offers a detailed perspective on the colonial world of the 18th century. This copy is bound in contemporary print and is in good overall condition.

LES ŒUVRES DE MONSIEUR DE CRÉBILLON

Prosper Jolyot de Crébillon

REF.36847

Year 1749

Paris; Chez Nyon, Fils, Quai des Augustins, à l'Occasion; In-12.º of 3 volumes; Bound.

Eighteenth-century edition of the dramatic works of Prosper Jolyot de Crébillon (1674–1762), known as Crébillon the Elder, one of the leading French tragic playwrights of the first half of the eighteenth century. An heir to the classical tradition of Corneille and Racine, he distinguished himself through intensely dramatic works exploring conflicts of power, violent passions, revenge and moral dilemmas. His best-known tragedies include Idoménée, Atrée et Thyeste, Électre, Rhadamiste et Zénobie and Pyrrhus.

Published in Paris in 1749, this three-volume edition reflects the contemporary reception of Crébillon's theatre during the author's lifetime. His dramatic writing, frequently associated with the taste for terror and pathos, occupies an important place in the development of eighteenth-century French tragedy, representing one of the most characteristic expressions of French tragic theatre before Voltaire's emergence as a dominant literary figure.

Copies in contemporary bindings showing slight signs of handling, with the contents in good condition. They bear ownership bookplates.

"...ET AUTRES ANCIENS MONUMENS. Depuis la Naissance de Notre-Seigneur, par le Moyen d´une table chronologique."

Paris; G. Desprez; Folio of XXVII(1) 934 (2) pages; Bound

A monumental work of historical scholarship, originally compiled by the Benedictines of the Congregation of Saint-Maur. Conceived as a vast working tool for historians, chronologists, and scholars of ancient documents, the book gathers and organizes a huge amount of dates, events, genealogies, diplomas, chronicles, and documentary references since the birth of Christ. Its main function is to allow the rigorous verification of the chronology of historical facts and the authentication of documents, offering tables, critical notes, and comparisons between different chronicle traditions. Over the centuries, the work has undergone multiple editions and expansions, becoming one of the pillars of modern historical criticism. From the 18th century onwards, several scholars continued and updated the original work, adding new volumes and extending the chronological coverage to more recent periods. Later editions, such as those by François Clément and those continued by Courcelles, maintained the meticulous spirit of the work, reinforcing its role as an indispensable reference for the study of European history and for the analysis of medieval and modern sources. Copy with contemporary binding with slight handling damage, clean interior in good condition, maintaining the sound of the paper.

5thEdition

Paris; P. Rouquette Éditeur; In-4º of XXII 755 (10) pages; Bound

A reference work for bibliophiles and scholars of 18th-century French illustrated editions. It is a critical and descriptive catalog that brings together information on hundreds of books adorned with engravings, highlighting rare editions, authors, illustrators, and engravers who marked the editorial production of the time. Henry Cohen, a renowned bibliography expert, organized the guide as a practical tool for collectors and antiquarians, offering detailed descriptions of the works, notes on the quality of the illustrations, data on print runs, and comments on the artistic and bibliographic value of each edition. The book quickly became an indispensable work for those dedicated to collecting illustrated books, as it systematized a field that was previously dispersed and little studied. Beyond its function as a catalog, it reflects the taste for and fascination with illustrated books in the 18th century, a period in which engraving established itself as an essential element of luxury publishing, combining text and image in a refined aesthetic. Today, it continues to be a fundamental source for researchers of book history and graphic art, serving as a starting point for identifying and evaluating illustrated works from that era. This fifth edition has been revised, corrected, and considerably expanded by Le Baron Roger Portalis. In short, it is a bibliographic and critical manual that consolidated the study of French illustrated books of the 18th century, becoming an essential reference for bibliophiles and historians of publishing. Copy with half-French binding signed by René Aussourd, in good general condition.

ELÉMENS DE MUSIQUE THÉORIQUE AT PRATIQUE, Suivant Les Principes de M. Rameau

Jean Le Rond D´ Alembert

REF.31942

Year 1766

Lyon; Chez Jean-Marie Bruyset; In-8th of XXXVI 235 (5) pages plus 10 prints; Bound

"Éclarcis, Développés et Simplifiés, Par M. D'Alembernt, de l'Académie Françoise."

Work illustrated with 10 musical stave prints. D'Alembert was exposed to musical theory in 1749, when he was called to revise a memoir submitted to the Academy by Jean-Philippe Rameau. This article, written in collaboration with Diderot, would later form the basis of Rameau's 1750 treatise Demonstration of the Principle of Harmony. D'Alembert wrote a review, praising the author's deductive character as an ideal scientific model. He saw in Rameau's musical theories a support for his own ideas, a fully systematic method with a strongly deductive synthetic structure. Two years later, in 1752, d'Alembert carried out a complete study of Rameau's works in their elements of theoretical and practical music, following the principles of M. Rameau. Emphasizing Rameau's main claim that music was a mathematical science and that it possessed a single principle from which all the elements and rules of musical practice could be deduced, d'Alembert contributed to popularizing the composer's work and publicizing his own theories. He claims to have "clarified, developed and simplified" Rameau's principles, arguing that the idea of a sound body alone was not sufficient to derive the totality of music. Copy with contemporary binding with slight signs of handling, clean core and maintaining the sound of the paper.

He was arrested on March 25 and in 1676, he was sentenced to life imprisonment after trial and confiscation of his property. It was in prison that he wrote these memoirs about diplomats, ministers, ambassadors and law in Europe. Wicquefort escaped from prison in 1679. He signed this work with the initials L.M.P.
