‎MALTHUS, Thomas Robert‎

‎The Grounds of an Opinion on the Policy of Restricting the Importation of Foreign Corn:‎

‎London: Printed for John Murray and J. Johnson and Co. 1815. Malthusian economics stress-tested First edition presentation copy inscribed in a secretarial hand "From the Author" at the head of the title page. The Grounds of an Opinion is a rare Malthusian argument in favour of economic interventionism supporting the restrictions imposed by the Corn Laws on foreign grain. In his wider work on population and poverty Malthus promoted an essentially laissez-faire approach to political economy. In the Essay on the Principles of Population 1798 for example he rejected poor relief and centralized intervention as fatally detrimental to the work ethic of the poor. The Grounds of an Opinion therefore shocked his circle of Whiggish friends but Malthus justified his deviation on grounds of national security: encouraging domestic production was the only way to ensure self-sufficiency in food within a fickle and changeable continent. Malthus's presentation may have been less effective than he hoped. A leaf of contemporary manuscript notes tipped in after p. 4 records considerable dissatisfaction with Malthus's "most extraordinary assertion". Octavo 208 x 128 mm pp. ii 48; lacking terminal advertisement leaf. Recent brown quarter calf grey paper-covered boards. Infrequent 20th-century pencil annotations to contents. Light foxing vertical tear to title page neatly repaired and upper inner corner replaced: a very good copy. Einaudi 3672; Goldsmiths' 2177; Kress B6535; Mattioli 2214; Sraffa 3690. hardcover‎

‎MALTHUS, Thomas (inscrib); TURNER, Sharon‎

‎The History of the Anglo-Saxons.‎

‎London: Printed for Longman Hurst Rees and Orme 1807. Though his theories were so cruel his heart and manners were most kindly and courteous Second edition presented and inscribed by Thomas Malthus: "East India College Awarded to Mr John Trotter at the Public Examination of December 1817 as the first of his Class in Political Economy T. Rob. Malthus". Malthus taught as professor of history and political economy at the East India Company College at Haileybury from 1805 to his death in 1834 training generations of EIC management. Writing many years later a former student recalled "We called him Pop; not in derision for we had a great but rather distant respect for him. Though his theories were so cruel his heart and manners were most kindly and courteous" quoted in Maureen Alexander Turner p. 54. John Trotter 1800-1825 entered the college in 1816 and subsequently joined the EIC; he died seven years later aboard the Royal George just off Penang in Malaya which was then an EIC port. Trotter was the son of Alexander Trotter d. 1842 the financially imaginative paymaster of the Royal Navy. His engraved armorial bookplate is in both volumes; Malthus's ink inscription is on the front free endpaper verso. The History of the Anglo-Saxons by Sharon Turner 1768-1847 was originally published from 1799 to 1805. It quickly became "a powerful influence on historical thought for the succeeding half-century" ODNB and remains acknowledged as a turning point in Anglo-Saxon studies and a benchmark in historiography. Writing with a clear eye on the British Empire of his own day - in which Trotter's East India Company played so prominent a role - Turner presents the Anglo-Saxons as central to the historical development that set England on its imperial course. 2 vols quarto 271 x 213 mm pp. x 499 1; viii 472 8. Large hand-coloured engraved folding map by Neele showing "Territory inhabited by the Ancient Saxons north of the Elbe" as frontispiece of vol. I. Contemporary calf rebacked spines ruled and lettered in gilt covers with double-rule panel in gilt crest of the East India Company College blocked in gilt to centre turn-ins in blind marbled endpapers edges sprinkled in brown and red. Light rubbing extremities neatly restored infrequent damp staining to otherwise clean contents short closed tear to inner margin of folding map: just about a very good copy. Maureen Alexander Turner The Educational Ideas and Influence of Thomas Robert Malthus 1766-1834 University of Glasgow Department of Education PhD thesis 1991. unknown‎

Internally fine and clean. XVI 368; VIII 358 1 pp. <br/><br/><em>Rare first German edition of this political and economic classic which constitutes Malthus' first major publication and his main work because of which he is considered the father of demography and one of the main sources of inspiration for Darwin and Wallace. It is the first translation of the "Principle on Population" into any language and it influenced German politics tremendously.The first edition was printed anonymously in London in 1798 and in 1803 the second edition which also according to Malthus himself can be said to constitute a new work appeared; -the great quarto edition from 1803 is thoroughly revised and much enlarged the title has been changed and Malthus' name appears on the title-page for the first time it is on this edition that all the preceding editions are based and in consequence also the early translations. All the later editions were minor revisions of the second one. In 1806 the third edition appeared and as soon as 1807 the first German one which is translated from the revised third edition "Die gegenwärtige Uebersetzung ist nach der dritten Ausgabe Oktav London 1806. Die Quartausgabe ist minder vollständig" Vorwort p. V. New revisions of the text kept appearing till the sixth edition in 1826. The book then as now is considered highly controversial and it has influenced all demographers ever since as well as being of immense importance to the study of economic theory and genetic inheritance.

"Parson" Malthus as Cobbett dubbed him was for many a monster and his views were often grossly misinterpreted. But his influence on social policy whether for good or evil was considerable.

Among other things this caused the legislation which lowered the population of the poor in England. Malthus actually turned political economic and social thought upside down with this work which has caused him to be considered one of the 100 most influential persons in history Hart The 100: A Ranking of the most Influential Persons in History 1978. Of course he was condemned by Marx and Engels and opposed by the socialists universally but the work was of immense impact on not only politics economics social sciences etc but also on natural sciences. "Later in the "Origin of Species" he Darwin wrote that the struggle for existence "is the doctrine of Malthus applied with manifold force to the whole animal and vegetable kingdoms; for in this case there can be no artificial increase of food and no prudential restraint from marriage" p. 63.

DSB IX p. 69. As Malthus realized that his theories were not satisfactorily presented or sufficiently demonstrated in the first edition from 1798 he travelled for three years through Europe gleaning statistics and then published the second edition in 1803. Among other places he travelled through Northern Germany and his detailed diaries of these journeys provided him with some of the evidence necessary for the development of his theory on population growth. The observational information that he gathered on his travels in Europe were crucial to the development of his theories which also means that the work is of great interest for other European countries and not only Britain.

‎Versuch über die Bedingung und die Folgen der Volksvermehrung. An Essay on the Principle of Population in German translation.‎

‎Altona I. F. Hammerich 1807. . First German edition 2 vols 8vo 20 x 12.5 cm. pp. xvi 368; pp. vii 358; very slight spotting to vol. 1. Contemporary half-brown leather binding; flat spine gilt bands separating compartments compartments 1 3 5 and 6 contain gilt floral decoration compartments 2 and 4 contain gilt lettering including translator's name and title gilt library stamp to both upper boards library stamps to verso of both upper boards and title pages pencil markings to verso of upper boards and endpapers; rubbed water or possibly glue marks to verso of upper boards and endpapers.<br /> Rare first German edition and first translation into a foreign language of this important work by the father of Malthusianism.<br /><br />Malthus' original work written in English was first published anonymously in 1798. It discusses the problem of the gap between population growth which is potentially exponential and the growth of food supply which is not. The work arose from a discussion between Malthus and his father about the possibility of a better society and went on to have an enormous impact on social policy. Ultimately Malthus believed population growth would always outrun food supply and therefore the betterment of society was impossible without stern limits on reproduction. For this reason he is often associated with Darwin. His views became popular again in the XX century largely due to the work of John Maynard Keynes. <br /><br />'The essay exercised a strong influence on European intellectual development at the beginning of the nineteenth century. the Socialists fought him unanimously. and the Conservatives were happy that somebody was fighting against the spread of revolutionary ideas from the continent.' Carter/Muir.<br /><br />Thomas Malthus 1766 - 1834 was born into a family of intellectuals and his father was a great friend of the philosopher David Hume. He took holy orders in 1797 but in 1805 decided to become a professor teaching history and the relatively new subject of political economy at the East India Company college in Haileybury. He was elected a member of the Royal Society in 1819 and in 1834 founded the Statistical Society of London.<br /> Altona, I. F. Hammerich, 1807. hardcover‎

‎MALTHUS, TR T R‎

‎Versuch über die Bedingung und die Folgen der Volksvermehrung aus dem Englischen von Dr. F.H. Hegewisch. 2 Tle. - DECREASING POPULATION GROWTH‎

‎Altona J.F. Hammerich 1807. 8vo. Bound in the two orig. blue cardboardbindings. The backs have been professionally restored preserving the orig. printed paper title-labels and cont. paper library-labels at lower backs. Occasional brownspotting due to the paper-quality but all in all a very nice and attractive copy. XVI 4 368; VIII 358 1 pp. Some of the first leaves of the "Erstes Buch" in the first volume have been misbound but are all present. <br/><br/><em>Rare first German edition of this political and economic classic which constitutes Malthus' first major publication and his main work because of which he is considered the father of demography and one of the main sources of inspiration for Darwin and Wallace. It is the first translation of the "Principle on Population" into any language and it influenced German politics tremendously.The first edition was printed anonymously in London in 1798 and in 1803 the second edition which also according to Malthus himself can be said to constitute a new work appeared; -the great quarto edition from 1803 is thoroughly revised and much enlarged the title has been changed and Malthus' name appears on the title-page for the first time it is on this edition that all the preceding editions are based and in consequence also the early translations. All the later editions were minor revisions of the second one. In 1806 the third edition appeared and as soon as 1807 the first German one which is translated from the revised third edition "Die gegenwärtige Uebersetzung ist nach der dritten Ausgabe Oktav London 1806. Die Quartausgabe ist minder vollständig" Vorwort p. V. New revisions of the text kept appearing till the sixth edition in 1826. The book then as now is considered highly controversial and it has influenced all demographers ever since as well as being of immense importance to the study of economic theory and genetic inheritance. "The "Essay" was highly influential in the progress of thought in the early nineteenth-century Europe. "Parson" Malthus as Cobbett dubbed him was for many a monster and his views were often grossly misinterpreted. But his influence on social policy whether for good or evil was considerable. The Malthusian theory of population came at the right time to harden the existing feeling against the Poor Laws and Malthus was a leading spirit behind the Poor Law Amendment Act of 1834." PMM 251.Thomas Robert Malthus 1766-1834 called the "enfant terrible" of the economists was an English demographer statistician and political economist who is best known for his groundbreaking views on population growth presented in his "Essays on the Principle of Population" which is based on his own prediction that population would outrun food supply causing poverty and starvation. Among other things this caused the legislation which lowered the population of the poor in England. Malthus actually turned political economic and social thought upside down with this work which has caused him to be considered one of the 100 most influential persons in history Hart The 100: A Ranking of the most Influential Persons in History 1978. Of course he was condemned by Marx and Engels and opposed by the socialists universally but the work was of immense impact on not only politics economics social sciences etc but also on natural sciences. "Later in the "Origin of Species" he Darwin wrote that the struggle for existence "is the doctrine of Malthus applied with manifold force to the whole animal and vegetable kingdoms; for in this case there can be no artificial increase of food and no prudential restraint from marriage" p. 63. Alfred Russel Wallace who arrived at a worked-out formulation of the theory of evolution at almost precisely the same time as Darwin acknowledged that "perhaps the most important book I read was Malthus's "Principles of Population" My Life p. 232. Although there were four decennial censuses before Malthus' death he did not himself analyze the data although he did influence Lambert Quetelet and Pierre Verhulst who made precise statistical studies on growth of populations in developed countries and showed how the early exponential growth changed to an S curve." DSB IX p. 69. As Malthus realized that his theories were not satisfactorily presented or sufficiently demonstrated in the first edition from 1798 he travelled for three years through Europe gleaning statistics and then published the second edition in 1803. Among other places he travelled through Northern Germany and his detailed diaries of these journeys provided him with some of the evidence necessary for the development of his theory on population growth. The observational information that he gathered on his travels in Europe were crucial to the development of his theories which also means that the work is of great interest for other European countries and not only Britain.

‎MALTUS [Thomas Robert MALTHUS]‎

‎MORE THAN A TRANSLATION - Essay on the Law of Population; Translated by P. A. Bibikov Opyt o zakone narodonaseleniia.‎

‎<p><strong>Scarce first Russian edition of a major landmark of economic literature the <em>Essay on the Principle of Population</em></strong> first published in English in 1798.</p><p><strong>With much added material.</strong> The translator P. A. Bibikov was a historian philosopher and literary critic who had already translated Smith's Wealth of Nations in 1866. With this background he added a wealth of material to this edition making it more than just a translation but also an a posteriori analysis. Next to the 80 pages on Malthus' life and works Bibikov added in a rich appendix translations of foreign commentators as well as his own footnotes relating to Russia. Very interestingly he updated and commented the many pages Malthus had already devoted to the Russian case. The appendix includes texts by Townsend Garnier Chernyshevskiy and Prudhon as well as a convenient 20-pp. alphabetical index.</p><p>"The central idea of the essay - and hub of the Malthusian theory - was a simple one. If the natural increase in population occurs the food supply becomes insufficient and the size of the population is checked by 'misery' - that is the poorest sections of the community suffer disease and famine. Malthus recognises two other possible checks to population expansion: first 'vice' - that is homosexuality prostitution and abortion all totally unacceptable to Malthus; and second 'moral restraint' - the voluntary limitation of the product of children by the postponement of marriage." PMM.</p><p>Provenance: Unidentified symbolistic booklabel to upper endpapers; small Baltic bookseller's stamps to lower endpapers.</p><p>Physical description:Two volumes 8vo. 476 pp. incl. half-title title and table of contents at end; 468 pp. incl. table of contents. Later plain brown cloth author titled in ink on the spines.</p><p>Condition:Very occasional light spotting.</p> Glazunov, Skt. Peterburg, hardcover‎

‎E-090. Very Good. Hardcover. Leather. 8vo. Printed for J. Johnson by T. Bensley London UK. 1806. Two Volumes xvi 505 pgs; vii 559 pgs. Third Edition. Bound in gilt ruled fine calf leather with titles present to the spine. Boards have light shelf-wear present to the extremities boards are lightly rubbed and worn. Previous owner's bookplate present to the front pastedown. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. Third edition the first to be published in 2 volumes and the first published after the Great Quarto edition of 1803 of one of the most important and influential books in the history of economic thought. The third edition contained numerous revisions among which was a text entitled A Reply to the Chief Objections which have been urged against the Essay on the Principle of Population which was also published separately so that it might be bound with earlier ones. As the world's population continues to grow at a frighteningly rapid rate Malthus's classic warning against overpopulation gains increasing importance. An Essay on the Principle of Population examines the tendency of human numbers to outstrip their resources and argues that checks in the form of poverty disease and starvation are necessary to keep societies from moving beyond their means of subsistence. Malthus's simple but powerful argument was controversial in his time; today his name has become a byword for active concern about humankind's demographic and ecological prospects. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall . hardcover‎
