Ostensibly the first American edition see below; 16mo pp. xvi 186 2 ads; contemporary full sheep red morocco label on spine; upper joint cracked extremities rubbed; a good sound copy. Volney 1757-1820 the French savant undertook a journey to the United States in 1795 where he was accused in 1797 of being a French spy "sent to prepare for the reoccupation of Louisiana by France. He was obliged to return to France in 1798. The results of his travels took form in his Tableau du Climat et du Sol des Etats-Unis 1803" EB-11. Page 186 contains a note from the translator. Both Jefferson and Barlow had translated Volney's Les Ruines ou méditations sur les révolutions des empires published in 1802 in Paris but there's no evidence they had any part in this translation. The translator remains unknown. Evans 29822 records a 1795 edition under a slightly different title no copies located in Evans and of which no copy in OCLC either; this may be a ghost.

TABLEAU DU CLIMAT ET DU SOL DES ETATS-UNIS D'AMERIQUE. SUIVI D'ECLAIRCISSEMENS SUR LA FLORIDE SUR LA COLONIE FRANCAISE AU SCIOTO SUR QUELQUES COLONIES CANADIENNES ET SUR LES SAUVAGES
Paris: Courcier 1803. Two volumes. 3xvi300; 4301- 5342pp. plus two foldings maps and two folding plates. Half titles. Three-quarter calf and marbled boards spines gilt leather labels all edges stained red. Hinges rubbed edges and corners slightly worn. Bookplates on front pastedowns. A few scattered fox marks and small dampstains but generally clean. About very good. Volney came to America to avoid imprisonment by the French government and brought with him a large measure of education and sophistication as well as a small bundle of prejudices: he was a vehement anticlericalist and opponent of things Rousseauian. Jefferson felt he might have been a catalyst for the Federalist Alien Acts. There is a small map of North America and a much larger map of the United States all east of the Mississippi. The map of the continent small as it is still represents fairly advanced cartographical knowledge. This copy is of the variant no priority with the Miami vocabulary separately paginated. The work is valuable for its notes on French colonies in the Ohio and Mississippi valleys. HOWES V141. CLARK II:69. PILLING 4061. FIELD 2449. MONAGHAN 1472. BUCK 49. Courcier hardcover books

VOLNEY Constantin Francois de ChassebAuf comte de 1757 1820.
Voyage en Syrie et en Egypte pendant les annees 1783 84 et 85. Quatrieme Edition. 2 volumes
Paris:: Courcier 1807. 1807. 2 volumes. 8vo. 6 x 487 1; iv 492 pp. Half-titles 5 folding engraved plates including detailed engravings of the Sphinx and the Pyramids of Giza 3 folding maps incl. frontis. a folding map of Egypt p. 288 Syria II p. 400 Turkey ads in front & rear. Original full mottled calf gilt spine red leather spine labels; joints rubbed but strong. Ownership Signature of Benjamin B. Wood. Very good. Fourth edition first issued in 1787 here printed with additional plates. This is a key source for the study of Ottoman Egypt Syria and modern day Lebanon sometimes called the Levant. Volney describes the geography of the region the climate its history cultures the militia economy and trade diseases the monuments natural history politics people law religions farming and agriculture craftsmen merchants commerce arts sciences and character of the inhabitants. All this is set within the presence of the years just prior to the outbreak of the French Revolution which started in 1789. "In 1783 Volney gave up the thought of following any particular profession and set out for the East. He arrived at Cairo ostensibly on a scientific mission although many there regarded him as a spy he was later accused of spying on America by John Adams' administration. In order to master Arabic he shut himself away in a convent for eight months then journeyed to the pyramids at Giza and moved to Suez where he lived with the Bedouin. While there he entertained the notion of constructing a canal to link the Mediterranean with the Red Sea. Sailing from Alexandria in September 1783 he visited Syria and the Lebanon concluding his journey at Acre =Akko in 1785. After a brief halt at Alexandria he returned to France where his documents turned out to be of enormous value in the planning of Napoleon's campaign to Egypt. Volney however persistently opposed such intervention despite producing a pamphlet which uncannily anticipated French involvement in the region." – Encyclopedia of Exploration to 1800 V61. / "The French author and traveller Constantin-Francois de Chasseboeuf 1757–1820 adopted the pen name Volney which combined the name of Voltaire and Ferney where the great philosopher lived. A friend of Thomas Jefferson and other Enlightenment figures Volney used an inheritance to further his education by travelling to Ottoman Egypt and the historical region of Syria visiting areas of present-day Lebanon and Israel. He chose these lands as he believed he would gain political and philosophical insights from their ancient heritage. Very little had been written in the West about these areas before he published this two-volume account in 1787. It enjoyed great popularity and even accompanied Darwin aboard the Beagle on his own voyage of discovery decades later. Reissued here is the revised and corrected French second edition which also appeared in 1787. The volumes explore geography history ethnic divisions religious beliefs commerce politics and customs." – Cambridge University Press 2014. / De Volney was a French philosopher and historian and a member of the Estates-General during the French Revolution. Alexander Cook who believes that Volney's influence is as a "key thinker" though often forgotten in today's sense of that history examines this books as a specimen of geo-politics of both French anti-imperialist thought and French imperial practice in North Africa and the Levant where France was seeking to expand its global influence and power during the following decades. Cook is at Australian National University School of History received his PhD from University of Cambridge. CONTENTS: Volume 1: Preface; - Part I. Etat physique de l'Egypte: - 1.

Les deux planches dereliées. Taches et rousseurs éparces. Pages brunies. Rare édition de Bourg du célèbre oeuvre du philosophe Volney dans laquelle alternent souvenirs personnels philosophie et réflexions. Si le sujet général est un questionnement sur la disparition et la ruine des empires Volney débute son livre par une méditation sur l'effondrement de Palmyre l'ouvrage aborde de multiples thèmes qui lui sont liés : origines des cultes religieux symbolisme culte des astres. Volney se souvenant d'Hérodote ne fait confiance en tant qu'historien qu'aux faits et il interroge les ruines afin qu'elles lui révèlent la ruine d'un empire et d'une cité. "J'irai vivre dans la solitude parmi les ruines; j'interrogerai les monuments anciens sur la sagesse des temps passés
