Sir Edward Clive Bayley; Partially Based on a Translation By John Dowson
The Local Muhammadan Dynasties: Gujarat
London UK: W. H. Allen and Co. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1886. First Edition. Hardcover. A very nice copy of this scarce title. The binding is in surprisingly good shape for its age with good color dark green and very little wear to the edges. The gold stamping on the spine with a decorative device is slightly faded but still quite handsome. A bookplate places this book as having been in the collection of one Sir Henry Maine. There is a closed tear in the first page blank but otherwise the pages look great with no foxing and only light age-toning. The huge fold-out map is in good shape with one closed tear. I didn't open it all the way out for fear of causing damage. . W. H. Allen and Co. hardcover

St. Petersburg I. I. Glazunov 1866. 8vo. In three nice recent uniform half calf binding with four raised bands and gilt lettering to spine. Soiling to half-title and title-page of vol. 1. Soiling to upper right corner of the first 160 pp of voll. 1. First three leaves of vol. 2 reinforced in margin. Samp "34C83" to title-page of volume. A fine set. 1-6 9 496 pp.; 1-612 pp.; 1 462 II pp. Without pages 7-8 of vol. 1 as in all recorded copies. � Rare first edition of the greatly improved second Russian translation of Adam Smith's seminal Wealth of Nations. This translation was based including the notes and apparatus on the 1843 Blanqui edition. The first translation was published between 1802-1806 and is today virtually unobtainable. Almost immediately after publication Russian readers regarded it unsatisfactory: "In the first translation the translator himself had referred to the difficulty of rendering Smith's specific terminology in Russian writing that he was a novice in the subject himself although Smith also seemed to have some difficulty in elaborating his ideas with clarity" Tribe p. 156.<br><br>"Bibikov already had a reputation as a historian philosopher and literary critic and this undoubtly had a part in the generally high level of presentation of the translations which have notes indexes and supplements. However Bibikov's translation was not made from the English original but from Blanqui's version of Garnier's French edition including an apparatus that drew upon commentary of Buchanan Garnier McCulloch and others which Bibikov retained in the Russian translation. <br><br>OCLC lists four copies besides the Vanderblue copy: University of Illinois Ohio State University Library University of Virginia and National Diet Library in Japan hardcover

IV 393 8; 6 340; 386; 415 2 pp. � Rare first Turkis translation of Adam Smith's landmark work "Wealth of Nations". Despite his indirect impact in the Ottoman intellectual sphere the present work was not translated into to Turkish until 1948. "The reason for not translating The Wealth of Nations in full was purely pragmatic and was simply caused by market conditions. Above all the market for books was small due to very low literacy rate." Kilin�olu Economics and Capitalism in the Ottoman Empire<br><br>"A 1881 Turkish translation of Wealth of Nations by Sakisli Ohanes is recorded by Vanderblue in 1936 as having been published in Constantinople printed in 'old Turkish characters' the modified Arabic-Persian script in use until about 1928. There is indeed a work by Sakizli Ohannes Pasha published in 1881 whose title translates as 'the science of the wealth of nations' but it is not a translation of Wealth of Nations. The book is a discussion of political economy in five parts - production exchange distribution consumption and a conclusion; it is therefore recognizable as a work written more under the influence of Jean-Baptiste Say than Adam Smith but given a title reminiscent of Smith all the same" Mizuta A Critical Bibliography of Adam Smith<br><br>Cheng-chung Lai Table A18. unknown

Bodell published translations of excerpts of Smith's landmark work in 1800 1804 and 1808. A more lengthy translation was made in 1909 - 1911 but to this day a full Swedish translation has not been made.<br><br>Despite the comparatively late translation into Swedish it still had a profound influence not on economists since they were well aware of the original work in English but upon politics and public opinion in general: <br>"There are few things more striking to the modem student of the history of ideas in Sweden than the negative phenomenon that Sweden was almost entirely uninfluenced by this fact and thus remained almost unaffected by English economic thought during a period when its superiority was most evident. As far as I am acquainted with the Swedish economic discussion and our popular economic literature of the 1860's and 1870's there is almost no trace of any influence from English writers. .Of Adam Smith we have still only one abbreviated translation of his famous work and that was published as late as during this century; and as far as I know nothing of Ricardo's or Malthus' exists in Swedish nor do any of the major economic works of J.S.

Bibikov regarded the two works as complementing each other as he remarks in his preface to this translation "the works reinforce each other. That is why having published in Russian Adam Smith's great work of political economy I decided to translate and publish his other work which is no less remarkable and yet known even less to Russian society than the first" p. 5. "Bibikov's translation probably done via French remained the only Russian version available until 1997". National Library of Scotland.<br><br>Adam Smith developed a comprehensive and unusual version of moral sentimentalism in his Theory of Moral Sentiments 1759 TMS. He did not expressly lay out a political philosophy in similar detail but a distinctive set of views on politics can be extrapolated from elements of both TMS and his Wealth of Nations. Although these economic doctrines had not been unheard of in Russia prior to the rise of Anglophile feelings at the beginning of the nineteenth century "it was not until interest and admiration for things British was firmly rooted that classical economics could secure its ground in Russia" Tanaka The Controversies Concerning Russian Capitalism - An Analysis of the Views of Plekhanov and Lenin this processes coincided with the present publication which became important in the spreading of Adam Smith's economic principles in Russia. <br><br>OCLC only locates three copies. hardcover

SMITH ADAM. THE SEMINAL FIRST TRANSLATION OF 'WEALTH OF NATIONS'
Untersuchung der Natur und Ursachen von Nationalreichth�mern Aus dem Englischen. 2 B�nde.
Leipzig Weidmann 1776-78. 8vo. Bound in two nice uniform contemporary half calf bindings with five raised bands and gilt lettering to spine. Ex-libris pasted on to pasted down front free end-papers and a small embossed stamp to front free end paper on volume 1 "Buchh�ndler u. Antiquar Carl Helf". Stamp to p. 1 of both volumes. Spines with light soiling and capital on volume 1 lacking a small part of the leather. A few light brown spots throught. A fine set. VIII 632 pp; XII 740 pp. � Exceedingly rare first German edition also being the very first overall translation of Adam Smith's ground-breaking main work the "Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations". This seminal first translation of the work was undertaken by J.F. Schiller who finished the first part of the translation in time for it to appear as soon as 1776 the same year as the original English edition. The second part appeared in 1778 the same year as the exceedingly scarce first French translation. This first German translation has been of the utmost importance to the spreading of Smith's ideas throughout Europe and after the true first this must count as the most important edition of the work.<br><br>"The influence of the Wealth of Nations . in Germany . was so great that 'the whole of political economy might be divided into two parts - before and since Adam Smith; the first part being a prelude and the second a sequel." Backhouse Roger E. The Methodology of Economics: Nineteenth-Century British Contributions Routledge 1997.<br><br>"The first review of the translation which appeared in the G�ttingische gelehrte Anzeigen for March 10 1777 by J. G. H. Feder professor of Philosophy at the University of G�ttingen was very favorable. In the words of the reviewer: "It is a classic; very estimable both for its thorough not too limited often far-sighted political philosophy and for the numerous frequently discursive historical notes" but the exposition suffers from too much repetition." Lai Cheng-chung. Adam Smith Across Nations: Translations and Receptions of The Wealth of Nations Clarendon Press UK 2000.<br><br>Until 1797 . the work of Adam Smith received scant attention in Germany. While Frederick II was living Cameralism held undisputed sway in Prussia and the economic change which began with the outbreak of the French Revolution had still not gained sufficient momentum to awake the economic theorists from their dogmatic slumber." Lai Cheng-chung. Adam Smith Across Nations: Translations and Receptions of The Wealth of Nations Clarendon Press UK 2000.<br><br>Various German economist read the german translations and was inspired by it.<br>"Christian Garve . must be considered as among the important contributors to the spread of Smith's views. Himself a popularizer of philosophical doctrines he was early attracted by the Scotch writers and became one of their foremost exponents in Germany." In 1791 Garve began a second translation of the Smith's work and in the introduction to the the translation he wrote: "It Smith's work attracted me as only few books have in the course of my studies through the number of new views which it gave me not only concerning the actual abject of his investigations but concerning all related material from the philosophy of civil and social life". <br><br>Georg Sartorius August Ferdinand Lueder and perhaps the most important economist of the period Christian Jacob Kraus were all important figures in the spread of Smith's thought. <br><br>"The most significant of Kraus' works and that also which shows his conception of economic science most clearly is the five-volume work entitled State Economy. The first four volumes of this work are little more than a free paraphrase of the Wealth of Nations". Kraus was: "to a large extent responsible for the economic changes which took place in Prussia after 1807 in so far as they can be ascribed to Smithan influence." Lai Cheng-chung. Adam Smith Across Nations: Translations and Receptions of The Wealth of Nations Clarendon Press UK 2000.<br><br>Kraus wrote of the present volume: "The world has seen no more important book than that of Adam Smith. Certainly since the times of the New Testament no writing has had more beneficial results than this will have. Smith's doctrines form the only true great beautiful just and beneficial system." Fleischacker Samuel A Third Concept of Liberty Princeton University Press 1999.<br>_____________<br><br>Hailed as the "first and greatest classic of modern thought" PMM 221 Adam Smith's tremendously influential main work has had a profound impact on thought and politics and is considered the main foundation of the era of liberal free trade that dominated the nineteenth century. <br><br>Adam Smith 1723-1790 is considered the founder of Political Economy in Britain mainly due to his groundbreaking work the "Wealth of Nations" from 1776. The work took him 12 years to write and was probably in contemplation 12 years before that. It was originally published in two volumes in 4to and was published later the same year in Dublin in three volumes in 8vo. The book sold well and the first edition the number of which is unknown sold out within six months which came as a surprise to the publisher and probably also to Smith himself partly because the work "requires much thought and reflection qualities that do not abound among modern readers to peruse to any purpose." Letter from David Hume In: Rae Life of Adam Smith 1895 p. 286 partly because it was hardly reviewed or noticed by magazines or annuals. In spite of this it did evoke immense interest in the learned and the political world and Buckle's words that the work is "in its ultimate results probably the most important book that has ever been written" and that it has "done more towards the happiness of man than has been effected by the united abilities of all the statesmen and legislators of whom history has preserved an authentic account" History of Civilisation 1869 I:214 well describes the opinion of a great part of important thinkers then as well as now. <br><br>Kress S. 2567<br>Goldsmith 11394<br>Menger 521<br>Not in Einaudi hardcover
