Perrault C.
Memoire pour servir � l'histoire naturelle du lion de la lionne du cam�l�on de l'ours de la gazelle du chat-pard du renard marin du loup-cervier de la loutre de la civette de l'�lan du veau marin & du chamois; par Charles Perrault avec douze figures grav�es d'apr�s S�b. Leclerc par de bons artistes.
Paris l'Imprimerie du Louvre 1700. Folio 42.2 x 28.0 cm. Half-title title page with engraved vignette 124 pp.; 20 large finely engraved plates. Contemporary full calf. Spine with six raised bands compartments with gilt ornaments. Marbled endpapers. Edges speckled red. Perhaps unique copy of this early and influential work on comparative zoology morphology and anatomy by the French zoologist Latinist architect and founding member of the Acad�mie de Sciences Claude Perrault 1613-1688. According to a note written below the advice to the binder this is the 1688 edition augmented with eight additional plates. Indeed apart from the animals mentioned in the title lion lioness chameleon bear gazelle leopard shark lynx otter civet eland sea cow actually a seal and chamois there are images of a pangolin caracal hog-like animal two species of stork spoonbill ostrich gazelle hedgehog and porcupine the latter two on one plate. Only the gazelle has an additional description whereas on pp. 119-123 there is an extensive description of the cormoran cormorant and on p. 124 a one-page description of the cocq-indien curassow which however are not figured. There is only one copy mentioned in an antiquarian catalogue during the last 40 years and one copy in a French library however with 12 plates and 118 pages only. Brunet states that the 1688 edition has four not eight additional plates and 124 text pages and the 1700 title edition had only 16 plates and 118 text pages that is: the same as the one copy on record in a French library. On the title page the author is named Charles P�rault a double error for Claude Perrault. Perrault had died more than a decade before and apparently nobody cared to check his name. Charles was the name of Claude's younger brother who was best known for creating a new literary genre: the fairy tale. The "Memoire" in the title is a small error for M�moires but apart from these peculiarities this edition is carefully executed. Boards and spine rubbed and a bit dry spine label absent small wormhole through several text and plate leaves inscribed by former owner in the half-title top margin old annotation in the margin of the front flyleaf verso some scattered marginal foxing or light soiling but internally still a good clean copy. Exceedingly rare. Adler III pp. 18-20; Brunet IV p. 507; Nissen ZBI 3122 for the smaller and shorter 1669 edition. hardcover

PERRAULT Claude 1613 1688 HISTORY OF ACADEMIE ROYALE DES SCIENCES Royal Academy of Sciences
Memoires de l'Academie Royale des Sciences: Memoires pour servir a l'histoire naturelle des Animaux
Paris: Par La Compagnie des Libraires 1734. Hardcover. Very Good. Three volumes comprising Vol. III parts I to III of Memoires de l�Acad�mie Royale des Sciences depuis 1666 jusqu�� 1699. Paris: Par La Compagnie des Libraires 1733-1734. Part I: 231pp.; Part II: 294pp.; Part III: 215pp. 97 engraved folding plates depicting animals and skeletal diagrams. Engraved portrait frontispiece of Claude Perrault in first volume. Contemporary French calf spines gilt edges red; some occasional browning; repairs to joints some rubbing. Unidentified armorial bookplate to front pastedown beneath monogrammed bookplate �D.P.� with chipmunk and two mice. A later reduced format edition of Perrault�s Memoires of 1671-1676 Perrault�s study of this nature was first published in 1669 with the results of investigations of five animals and later expanded with studies of over forty animals. Prior to 1670 most descriptions of animals paid little attention to their internal structure and there were very few images in natural history encyclopedias that depicted skeletons or muscles. That changed with the establishment of the Acad�mie des Sciences in Paris in 1666 by Jean-Baptiste Colbert with the approval of King Louis XIV. The Academy functioned with neither statutes nor regulations until 1699. At that time the Academy used the term math�matique to encompass the fields that are now called astronomy mathematics and physics and the term physique to encompass the fields that are now called anatomy botany zoology and chemistry. In January 1699 Louis reorganized the Academy giving it first regulations. The effect was to give the King more control over their activities in exchange for becoming an official institution under his protection with the new name Acad�mie Royale des Sciences. One of the original academicians the physician Claude Perrault organized regular sessions at which participants could dissect deceased animals from Louis XIV�s royal menagerie and record all they observed. Lions chameleons bears gazelles wolves ostriches crocodiles monkeys eagles tigers porcupines and salamanders among some were all laid open by the academic�s scalpels. These superb folding plates record in great detail the pioneering work at the Academy. These three volumes in three parts focus on the transformative and foundational years of the French Royal Academy of Sciences and Claude Perrault�s efforts which had made comparative anatomy a vital tool for the classifying naturalist. <br/><br/> Par La Compagnie des Libraires hardcover

Perrault was the leader of a team of comparative anatomists that included Guichard Joseph Duverney Jean Pecquet Moyse Charas and Philippe de la Hire; they were often called the "Parisians" in contemporary literature because of their membership in the Académie Royale des Sciences. Their investigations began with a thresher shark and lion from the royal menagerie and went on to encompass forty-nine vertebrate species. "Although some of the discoveries on which the Parisians most prided themselves-including the nictitating membrane that Perrault first observed in a cassowary the external lobation of the kidneys in the bear and the castoreal glands of the beaver-had been observed earlier no such detailed and exact descriptions and illustrations had been published before" Dictionary of Scientific Biography. In the spirit of rationalism Perrault and his team investigated and debunked many popular myths attached to certain species such as the legend that salamanders live in fire or that chameleons subsist on air. They also recorded their methods of work along with their results providing the only contemporary disclosure of how such anatomical research was conducted in the seventeenth century. The Mémoires were originally issued in two parts in 1671 and 1676 as in our copy; they were later reissued in 1676 with slight changes as one volume with a new title-leaf. The two volumes of the Mémoires contain descriptions of twenty-nine species including the lion the chameleon the shark the lynx the porcupine the eagle the cormorant and the ostrich. Our copy was bound for presentation by Louis XIV patron of the Académie des Sciences; a significant portion of the edition was bound this way. Vol. I of our copy also includes the first edition of Jean-Félix Picard's Mesure de la terre 1671 which contains the first reasonably accurate calculation of the size of the Earth. Picard based his calculation on his measurements of a degree of latitude along the Paris meridian. Using sophisticated instruments Picard obtained a value for the Earth's polar radius of 6328.9 kilometers only 0.44% below the correct value of 6357 km.; his results were thirty to forty times more precise than any that had been obtained previously.
