‎Le Langage de la Raison. Par l'Auteur de la Jouissance de soi-meme.‎

‎8vo., on laid paper, with decorative title, small neat contemporary signature on half-title, some negligible marginal age-staining on a few leaves; contemporary full speckled calf, back with five raised bands, second compartment with red leather label lettered and ruled in gilt, all other compartments framed and tooled in gilt to a floral design, marbled endpapers, red edges, upper hinge cracked (but binding entirely sound), two small worm-holes at tail of backstrip, a crisp, clean copy. Complete with half-title; wanting one blank preliminary.Louis-Antoine Caraccioli (1723-1803) was a prolific writer of poetry, history, fiction and biography. Born in Paris, he served as colonel to Augustus III, King of Poland and Elector of Saxony, and so travelled widely throughout Europe. Despite close ties to both Louis XV and Louis XVI he managed to survive the Revolution, though eventually he died in penury. The broad thematic range of his works makes him interesting to scholars of manners and many other subjects. He is best known among bibliophiles for two publications printed with coloured inks: Le livre de quatre couleurs (1757) and Le livre à la mode (1759) But the full list of his works is much longer ('trop fécond' complains the ungenerous Nouvelle Biographie Générale), and many of them are of interest. The present work was first published in Paris by Nyon earlier in the same year. It remained popular throughout the eighteenth century and was translated into English as 'The Language of Reason' in 1802. This edition, the first non-French issue, is scarce.‎

‎Violences politiques : Europe et Am�riques 1960-1979‎

‎Lux 2013. Paperback. Very Good. Texte francais couverture souple. �tat d'usage: tr�s bon �tat. Alors que les soul�vements arm�s et les attentats continuent de survenir un peu partout dans le monde il importe de s'interroger sur la l�gitimit� de la violence comme forme d'intervention publique qu'elle soit l'oeuvre des groupes militants ou celle des forces �tatiques. Dans le but de pr�ciser les enjeux fondamentaux li�s � ce ph�nom�ne cet ouvrage revient sur les d�cennies agit�es de 1960-1970 qui plus que toute autre p�riode r�cente permettent d'en comprendre les ressorts. En tentant de faire tomber les masques de la coercition et de l'arbitraire les groupes r�volutionnaires de l'�poque ont en effet d�velopp� des strat�gies singuli�res de mobilisation pour lutter contre les pouvoirs �tablis. En revenant � l'histoire de la Bande � Baader du Sentier lumineux des Black Panthers de l'Arm�e r�publicaine irlandaise du Front de lib�ration du Qu�bec du Mouvement de lib�ration du taxi ou encore des Brigades rouges ce livre d�gage l'esprit d'une p�riode cruciale au cours de laquelle les membres de ces groupes partisans de l'action directe ont partag� les m�mes r�pertoires de la contestation les m�mes r�f�rences symboliques et une m�me �thique de l'engagement individuel et collectif. Le pouvoir croyaient-ils est au bout du fusil ! La raison du plus fort est-elle toujours la meilleure A lire cet ouvrage chacun sera mieux en mesure de r�pondre � la maxime du fabuliste. <br/> <br/> Lux paperback‎
