Londres Amsterdam 1773. First Edition. Very good . Paul-Henri Dietrich Thiery d'Holbach 1723-1789 the foremost exponent of atheistic materialism and the most intransigent polemicist against religion in the Enlightenment. Holbach had associated with the younger philosopher who with Diderot d'Alembert and Rousseau were grouping around the Encyclop�die to which he also became a major contributor. His Salon soon became the main social center and a sort of intellectual headquarters for the Encyclopedist movement. Almost everything he wrote -whether because it expounded atheism and materialism attacked Christianity or castigated absolute monarchy the state church and feudal privilege. Consequently his innumerable manuscripts were usually forwarded through secret channels to Holland for publication after which the books were smuggled back into France.

Paul Heinrich Dietrich Baron díHolbach 1723-1789 first became known as a scientist contributing some four hundred articles to the EncyclopÈdie of his friend and colleague Denis Diderot. Holbach later turned from science to more dangerous topics writing and having published abroad a number of books attacking religion in all aspects which flooded illegally into France. Unable to publish safely under his own name he had the ingenious idea of using the names of recently dead French authors. Thus in 1770 his most famous book ìThe System of Natureî appeared under the name of Jean-Baptiste Mirabaud. ìIn the SystËme Holbach rejected the Cartesian mind-body dualism and attemped to explain all phenomena physical and mental in terms of matter in motion. He derived the moral and intellectual faculties from manís sensibility to impressions made by the external world and saw human actions as entirely determined by pleasure and pain. He continued his direct attack on religion by attempting to show that it derived entirely from habit and custom. But the SystËme was not a negative or desctructive book: Holbach rejected religion because he saw it as a wholly harmful influence and he tried to supply a more desirable alternative. In fact he outlined a whole ethical and political philosophy which he expanded in his later worksî Printing and the Mind of Man. Goldsmithsí Library 10607. Kress 6737.

‎HOLBACH PAUL HENRY THIRY BARON D'. THE SYSTEM OF NATURE CONTINUED... THE SOCIAL SYSTEM‎

‎Syst�me social ou principes naturels de la morale et de la politique avec un examen de l'influence du gouvernement sur les moeurs. Par l'Auteur du Syst�me de la Nature Mirabaud. 3 Tomes.‎

‎London recte: Amsterdam M.M. Rey 1773. 8vo. Bound in one beautiful contemporary full mottled calf binding with five raised bands to richly gilt spine; triple gilt line-borders to boards and inner gilt dentelles. Edges of boards with single gilt line. All edges gilt. Corners abit bumped and a bit of overall wear. Inner hinges a bit weak. Internally very fine and clean. All in all a very fine copy indeed. 4 210; 176; 167 pp. With all three half-titles all three title-pages and all three indexes as well as the introduction. � The rare first edition first issue though Tchermerzine mentions an unknown 2-volume-edition form the same year - this edition has never been verified of one of d'Holbach's most important works his influential "social" and political continuation of his seminal main work "Systeme de la nature" - the bible of materialism. <br><br>D'Holbach 1723-1789 who was raised by a wealthy uncle whom he inherited together with his title of Baron in 1753 maintained one of the most famous salons in Paris. This salon became the social and intellectual centre for the Encyclop�die which was edited by Diderot and d'Alembert whom he became closely connected with. D'Holbach himself also contributed decisively to the Encyclop�die with at least 400 signed contributions and probably as many unsigned between 1752 and 1765. The "C�terie holbachique" or "the caf� of Europe" as the salon was known attracted the most brilliant scientists philosophers writers and artists of the time e.g. Diderot d'Alembert Helvetius Voltaire Hume Sterne etc etc. and it became one of the most important gathering-places for the exchange of philosophical scientific and political views under the "ancient r�gime". Apart from developing several foundational theories of seminal scientific and philosophical value D'Holbach became known as one of the most skilled propagators and popularizers of scientific and philosophical ideas promoting scientific progress and spreading philosophical ideas in a new and highly effective manner. <br><br>D'Holbach was himself the most audacious philosophe of this circle. During the 1760's he caused numerous anticlerical tracts written in large but not entirely by himself to be clandestinely printed abroad and illegally circulated in France. His philosophical masterpiece the "Syst�me de la nature ou des lois du monde physique et du monde moral" a methodological and intransigent affirmation of materialism and atheism appeared anonymously in 1770" D.S.B. VI:468 as did the social and political follow-up of it the famous "Syst�me social" in 1773. That is to say Mirabeau whom he had used as the author on the "System of Nature" in 1770 is not mentioned in the "Social System" on the title-page of which is merely stated "By the Author of "Syst�me de la Nature". <br><br>As the theories of d'Holbach's two systematic works were at least as anticlerical and unaccepted as those of his smaller tracts and on top of that so well presented and so convincing it would have been dangerous for him to print any of them under his own name and even under the name of the city or printer. Thus "Syst�me de la Nature" appeared pseudonomously under the name of the secretary of the Acad�mie Francaise J.B. Mirabaud who had died 10 years earlier and under a fictive place of printing namely London instead of Amsterdam. "He could not publish safely under his own name but had the ingenious idea of using the names of recently dead French authors. Thus in 1770 his most famous book "The System of Nature" appeared under the name Jean-Baptiste Mirabaud." PMM 215 and so the next "System" also appeared in the same manner three years later.<br><br>In his "Syst�me de la Nature" d'Holbach had presented philosophical materialism in an actual system for the first time and had created a work that dared unite the essence of all the essential material of the English and French Enlightenment and incorporate it into a closed materialistic system; on the basis of a completely materialistic and atheistic foundation he provided the modern world with a moral and ethic philosophy the effects of which were tremendous. It is this materialism and atheism that he continues three years later in his next systematic work "Syst�me social" through which politics morality and sociology are also incorporated into his system and take the place of the Christianity that he had so fiercely attacked earlier on. In this great work he extends his ethical views to the state and continues the description of human interest from "Syst�me de la Nature" by developing a notion of the just state by d'Holbach calle "ethocracy" that is to secure general welfare. "Syst�me social 1773; "Social System" placed morality and politics in a utilitarian framework wherein duty became prudent self-interest." Encyclopaedia Brittanica. "Holbach's foundational view is that the most valuable thing a person seeking self-preservation can do is to unite with another person: "Man is of all beings the most necessary to man" Sys�me social 76; cf. Spinoza's Ethics IVP35C1 C2 and S. Society when it is just unites for the common purpose of preservation and the securing of welfare and society contracts with government for this purpose." SEP.<br><br>As the "Syst�me de la Nature" had been condemned to burning in the year of its publication so the "Syst�me social" was on the list of books to be confiscated already in 1773 and it was placed on the Index of the Church in August 1775. As the "Syst�me de la Nature" the "Syst�me social" is thus also of great scarcity. <br><br>Another edition of the work appeared later the same year in 12mo. Tchermerzine says that "Il ya une �dition que nous ne connaissons pas en 2 vol. in-8. C'est sans doute l'originale." The present edition was reprinted the following year in 1774.<br><br>Tschermerzine VI:246; Graesse III:317; Barbier IV:622 only listing later editions. hardcover‎
