ROUSSEAU Jean Jacques
Discours sur l'origine et les fondemens de l'inegalitÈ parmi les hommes
First Edition of Rousseau's Early Work on Equality ROUSSEAU Jean-Jacques. Discours sur l'origine et les fondemens de l'inegalitÈ parmi les hommes. Amsterdam: Chez Marc Michel Rey 1755. First original edition distinguishable from the counterfeit editions by the signatures on frontispiece and the spelling "Jaques" on p. lii. Small octavo 8 x 5 inches; 202 x 127 mm. lxx 2 262 2 errata pp. Title-page printed in red and black. Copper-engraved frontispiece signed by Dominique Sornique after Charles Dominique Joseph Eisen engraved vignette on title and head-piece on dedication page by Fokke. Nineteenth-century mottled calf covers double-ruled in blind. Board edges ruled in gilt. Spine ruled and decoratively tooled in gilt in compartments. Red morocco spine label lettered in gilt. Marbled endpapers. All edges red. Previous owner's bookplate on front pastedown. Binding a bit tight. Internally very clean. Overall a very good copy. One of Rousseau's earlier works the Discourse is a critique of conventional and social relations and a strong defense of the individual. With its emphasis on the equality of all it foreshadows his later work the Contrat Social which became the bible of the French Revolution. The frontispiece depicts a group of "civilized" men contemplating a man in Rousseau's state of nature the state of complete equality which was lost with the introduction of the trappings of civilization such as industry agriculture and property.

Rousseau Jean Jacques
Julie ou La Nouvelle Heloise: Lettres de deux amans habitans d’une petite ville au pied des Alpes Julie or the New Heloise: Letters from two lovers living in a small town at the foot of the Alps.
Amsterdam: Marc-Michel Rey 1761. First edition of the first best-selling novel in history which made Jean-Jacques Rousseau the world's first celebrity author. Octavo six volumes bound in contemporary full calf gilt titles to the spine marbled edges marbled endpapers. An exceptional piece of literary history. A retelling of the legendary love affair between French nun Heloise d'Argenteuil and theologian Peter Abelard Rousseau's groundbreaking novel Julie or the New Heloise became an instant best-seller. Publishers could barely keep up with the high demand for copies of the story which evoked an unprecedentedly passionate response from readers particularly high-society women from whom Rousseau is known to have received thousands of love letters. Publishers capitalized on the unequivocally high demand for the novel by renting it to readers at a rate per day and even per hour. Due to its content the book was placed on the Index Librorum Prohibitorum List of Prohibited Books deemed lascivious and anti-clerical by the Roman Catholic Church. Although it was presented as a novel the book exists as a philosophical treaty on autonomy and authenticity as moral values which Rousseau perhaps argued to be ethically superior to rational and commonly-held moral principles. Arthur Schopenhauer cited Julie or the New Heloise as one of the four greatest novels ever written along with Laurence Sterne's Tristram Shandy Wilhelm Meister's Apprenticeship and Cervantes' Don Quixote. Historian Robert Darnton has argued that Julie 'was perhaps the biggest best-seller of the century.' Marc-Michel Rey unknown books

Botanique . ornée de soixante-cinq planches imprimées en couleurs d'après les peintures de P. J. Redouté
Paris: L. E. Herhan for Delachaussie et Garnery 1805. From the Collection of Arthur & Charlotte Vershbow. Folio 506 x 332 mm. Half-title. Title with stipple-engraved vignette 65 stipple-engraved plates by Bouquet Jacques Chailly Mlle. Delelo and others after Redouté printed in colors by Langlois. Contemporary marbled calf gilt spine with red and tan morocco lettering-pieces gilt. Some light wear at extremities; some mostly marginal and pale spotting. Provenance: Starrenstein bookplate; purchased from Biblion 1969. FIRST ILLUSTRATED EDITION FIRST STATE before the plates were titled and with plate 54 misnumbered 62. The plates are of flowers fruits bulbs leaves etc. of flowering plants and trees some showing whole plants and others showing details sometimes cut to reveal anatomical details. The book was issued in 1805 in both folio and quarto format. It is not surprising that this folio edition best reflects Redouté's superb botanical art. John Ruskin was one of many admirers of the work and in 1878 wrote to his bookseller F. S. Ellis: "Please at once set your Paris agents to look out for all copies that come up at any sale of Rousseau's Botanique with coloured plates 1805 - and buy all they can get." Rousseau's letters on botany were written from 1771 to 1773 but were not published in his lifetime. They first appeared in his Oeuvres in 1782. Exiled amongst the natural beauties of Switzerland in 1763 or 1764 Rousseau developed his interest in botany and made various collections of plant specimens or herbaria. See Lawrence Redouteana 15.

Lettres de deux amans habitans dune petite ville au pied des Alpes
Amsterdam: Marc-Michel Rey 1761. First Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine. 6 volumes in bound in 2 12mo 157 x 97mm. Vols. I: 407pp. II: 319pp. III: 255pp. IV: 331pp. V: 311pp. VI: 312pp. includes advertisements at end of Vol. I-III and IV without errata leaves. Half-title: Julie ou La nouvelle Héloise. Title pages printed in red and black with engraved ornaments. 12 full-page engraved plates illustrating the letters. Contemporary calf red edges; clean; calf slightly scuffed. First Edition. Rousseaus epistolary novel later known as Julie or the New Héloïse was first published in 1761 by Marc-Michel Rey in Amsterdam. The novels title translated Letters from two lovers living in a small town at the foot of the Alps is a nod to the history of Héloïse dArgenteuil and Pierre Abélard a medieval story of passion and Christian renunciation. The novel was initially put on the Index Librorum Prohibitorum. <br/><br/>Although Rousseau wrote it as a novel a philosophical theory about authenticity namely secret principles and feelings and being constituent of ones core identity permeated through it. Rousseau explored autonomy and authenticity as moral values and in turn created in Julie a story of temptation sin and redemption that was easily relatable. According to Historian Robert Darnton there were at least 70 editions in print before 1800. So immensely popular publishers could not print copies fast enough so they rented the book out by the day and even by the hour. The work stirred a strong emotional response from readers and had raised Rousseau to prominence as an author. Worldcat locates 6 copies of this edition in North America.
