The Ferment of Knowledge: Studies in the Historiography of Eighteenth-Century Science.
Cambridge:: Cambridge University Press 1980. 1980. 8vo. xiii 1 500 pp. Index; ink marginalia p. 266 minor pencil notes. Black gilt-stamped cloth dust jacket; jacket showing light wear. Very good. ISBN: 052122599x "The thirteen original essays in this book examine the status and development of the sciences in the eighteenth century. The last generation has seen a revolution in the methodology adopted by historians of science: The development of science is no longer described as a steady progress towards truth – certainties have given way to questions. The essays in this volume scrutinize these changing perspectives in historiography and recommend paths for future study. The eighteenth century has been a neglected and much-misunderstood era in the development of science all too often viewed as something of a trough between the towering achievements of the 'Scientific Revolution' and the nineteenth century. Yet it was a period of notable developments; it saw the establishment of such fields as electricity and heat the 'chemical revolution' the new science of gases the isolation of oxygen the nebular hypothesis in cosmology the foundation of rational mechanics and the birth pangs of biology geology and psychology. It was indeed an age when knowledge was in ferment." – Cambridge University Press. Cambridge University Press, 1980. hardcover books

Oeuvres de Rousseau
London: 1781. In a Contemporary Morocco Binding Attributed To Derôme Le Jeune<br/><br/>DEROME Nicholas Denis aka Le Jeune binder; attributed to. ROUSSEAU Jean Baptiste. Œuvres de Rousseau. Nouvelle édition. London: 1781.<br/><br/>Two twelvemo volumes 4 5/8 x 2 13/16 inches; 118 x 72 mm. 4 252; 4 276 pp. Engraved frontispiece portrait by Delvaux in Volume I. <br/><br/>Contents: Volume I "Odes sacrées" "Odes Liv. II-IV" and "Cantates allégoriques." Volume II "Epitres Liv. I-II" "Allégories Liv. I-II" "Epigrammes Liv. I-IV" and "Poésies diverses."<br/><br/>Contemporary full red morocco attributed to Derôme Le Jeune unsigned but with dentelles à l'oiseau characteristic of Derôme to volume two. Covers with gilt triple fillet border smooth spines decoratively tooled in gilt in panels with two olive green morocco gilt lettering labels board edges with single gilt fillet gilt dentelles à l'oiseau all edges gilt bright blue endpapers. The absolute bare minimum of rubbing to extremities. A wonderful copy.<br/><br/>"Derôme was born on October 1 1731 became a master binder on March 31 1761 and was elected one of the Gardes en Charge of the Community of the Master Binders and Guilders of the City and University of Paris on May 10 1773 at the same time as François Gaudreau binder to the dauphine. He died around the year 1788 i.e. 1790. the designs used by Derôme on his bindings are extremely graceful and rival those of Padeloup to which they have a strong resemblance. It is be true that he purchased the material and stamps of this binder at the sale of his effects after his death it explains to some extent the great similarity of the ornamentation employed by the two artists. Derôme executed many mosaic bindings but his great renown has been gained by his dentelles especially those in which he introduced a little bird with outstretched wings and which are in consequence termed dentelles à l'oiseau" Fletcher W.I. Bookbinding in France.<br/><br/>Marius Michel in La Reliure Française says that Derôme sought and found in the industries of his time the elements for new decoration and crowned his efforts with the dentelles to which he has given his name and which are distinguished from preceding ones by not being made up of the same tools in repetition but in combination thus affording more variety.<br/><br/>"Jean-Baptiste Rousseau April 6 1671- March 17 1741 was a French poet. He was born in Paris the son of a shoemaker and was well educated. As a young man he gained favour with Boileau who encouraged him to write. Rousseau began with the theatre for which he had no aptitude. A one-act comedy Le Café failed in 1694 and he was not much happier with a more ambitious play Le Flatteur 1696 or with the opera Venus et Adonis 1697. In 1700 he tried another comedy Le Capricieux which had the same fate. He then went with Tallard as an attaché to London and in days when literature still led to high position seemed likely to achieve success.<br/><br/>"His misfortunes began with a club squabble at the Café Laurent which was much frequented by literary men and where he indulged in lampoons on his companions. A shower of libellous and sometimes obscene verses was written by or attributed to him and at last he was turned out of the café. At the same time his poems as yet printed only singly or in manuscript acquired him a great reputation due to the dearth of genuine lyrical poetry between Jean Racine and André de Chénier. In 1701 he was made a member of the Académie des inscriptions; he was offered though he had not accepted profitable places in the revenue department; he had become a favourite of the libertine but influential côterie of the Temple; and in 1710 he presented himself as a candidate for the Académie française.<br/><br/>"Verses more offensive than ever were handed round and gossip maintained that Rousseau was their author. Legal proceedings of various kinds followed and Rousseau ascribed the lampoon to Joseph Saunin. In 1712 Rousseau was prosecuted for defamation of character and on his non-appearance in court was condemned to perpetual exile. He spent the rest of his life in foreign countries except for a clandestine visit to Paris in 1738; he refused to accept the permission to return which was offered him in 1716 because it was not accompanied by complete rehabilitation.<br/><br/>"Prince Eugène and then other persons of distinction took him under their protection during his exile and at Soleure he printed the first edition of his poetical works. He met Voltaire in Brussels in 1722. Voltaire's Le Pour et le contre is said to have shocked Rousseau who expressed his sentiments freely. At any rate the latter had thenceforward no fiercer enemy than Voltaire. His death elicited from Jean-Jacques Lefranc marquis de Pompignan an ode that was perhaps better than anything of Rousseau's own work. That work may be roughly divided into two sections. One consists of formal and partly sacred odes and cantatas of the stiffest character of which perhaps the Ode a la fortune is the most famous; the other of brief epigrams sometimes licentious and always or almost always ill-natured"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-Baptiste_Rousseau.

J. Rousseau est digne des honneurs décernés aux Grands Hommes par la Patrie reconnoissante & que les moyens d'exécution sont renvoyés au Comité de Constitution" 354-5.<br/>This was the earliest stage in the apotheosis of Rousseau whose remains were transferred to the Panthéon in 1794.

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
