Projet de Code civil présenté par la Commission nommée par le gouvernement le 24 thermidor an 8 NAPOLEONIC CODE Draft of the Civil Code
Paris: Chez Fauvelle imprimeur des Tribunaux place circulaire du Palais de justice à ParisEt Patris imprimeur-libraire quai Malaquais près le pavillon des Quatre-Nations n° 2 1801. Fine. ""The French nation having conquered liberty by the sword shall preserve and strengthen it through the law"" Preliminary Address Chez Fauvelle imprimeur des Tribunaux place circulaire du Palais de justice à Paris Et Patris imprimeur-libraire quai Malaquais près le pavillon des Quatre-Nations n° 2 Paris s. d. 1801 20.4 x 13.2 cm relié Extremely rare printing by Fauvelle official printer for the Tribunaux de la Seine contemporary and textually identical to the octavo and quarto editions by the Imprimerie de la République. Only four copies with Fauvelle's imprint in OCLC BnF National Library of Spain Royal Danish Library Stadtbibliothek Worms. Bradel-style binding in full marbled paper boards flat spine with red roan label light foxing to the first three leaves. First version of the Napoleonic Code presented by the four members of Bonaparte's commission appointed to draft the civil code. Also contains the important Preliminary Address to the First Draft of the Civil Code outlining the influences and objectives behind this landmark work - the first modern legal code to be widely adopted in Europe which influenced the codes of jurisdictions all over the world. Under Bonapartes authority the legislative commission led by Tronchet president Portalis Bigot de Préameneu and Maleville completed this draft civil code in just four months presented in Frimaire Year IX of the Republican Calendar January 1801. The structure of the text mirrors that of the Civil Code which came into effect in 21 March 1804. There are however both technical and philosophical differences: this project contains a Preliminary Book On Rights and Laws comprising six titles which would later be reduced in the Code to a single introductory article. Most sections in this version begin with explanatory comments many of which were later removed particularly in the first half of the code. As the Allgemeine Literatur Zeitung observed ""It can often be very useful to consult both the draft and the final code even in matters of legal dogmatics for the general principles and explanations provided by the commission are typically still valid for the code not because they were rejected as incorrect but rather deemed unsuitable for inclusion in the final version"" 25 March 1810. This first version of the Code was published for the Court of Cassation and appellate courts to collect their amendments. Fauvelle printer of this edition likely intended for Parisian magistrates was among the publishers of judicial commentaries submitted in response to the government's request. The courts delivered their remarks within six months of this editions release. After three years of debate and some one hundred sessionshalf chaired by Bonaparte himselfthe Civil Code was adopted in the form of 36 legislative bills and soon became known as the Napoleonic Code. This edition also includes the only appearance at the time of a Preliminary Address in essence the statement of purpose for the draft Civil Code by the four-member governmental commission between August 1800 and January 1801. . The Preliminary Address is in fact the work of Portalis whose spirit of moderation guided the drafters of the code. The legislator must remain modest Portalis maintained: a code should not seek to say everything; it must leave room for interpretation by the courts and jurists which leads to the famous phrase: The codes of nations evolve with time; properly speaking they are not made. The Preliminary Address is also a brilliant piece of propaganda outlining pacification by the Consulate after the Revolution and presenting the future code as a synthesis of the legal tradition from the French monarchy and new revolutionary principles. Canadian Ministry of Justice May 2004. This rare speech would not appear again until 1836 in Fenets Recueil complet des travaux préparatoires du Code civil vol. I p. 436.

This little pamphlet commences with a history of the island followed by an account of its inhabitants food live stock climate and the all-important garrison. The woodcut includes a key to landmarks on the island.

This William Ellery Channing 1782-1842 was the uncle of the more famous American Transcendentalist poet William Ellery Channing II 1817-1901. The elder Channing graduated with distinction from Harvard at the ripe age of 18. His first and only pastoral settlement was a small church on Federal Street in Boston June 1803. Shortly thereafter Channing became closely identified with the intellectual movement that ultimately spawned the North American Review and a number of other journals. Channing gradually grew into a significant opponent of slavery without ever joining forces with the abolitionists or approving of what he deemed their "extremist" tactics. Channing's writings on Bonaparte such as the present title and other political figures earned him a solid literary and critical reputation in Europe as well as America. <br/><br/> Henry Channing hardcover

(Napoleon) Dupont de l'Etang, Pierre, General
Letter signed "Le Gnl. Cmt. Dupont" as Minister of War under the provisional government to Maréchal Claude Victor-Perrin duc de Bellune acknowledging the latter's acceptance of Napoleon's abdication and the restoration of the Bourbons
N.p. Paris 1814. 1 p. on letterhead of "Ministère de la Guerre". Folio. Some very slight waterstaining affecting a few letters otherwise very good handsomely mounted and framed. 1 p. on letterhead of "Ministère de la Guerre". Folio. An extraordinary letter of historic significance written a mere two days after the Treaty of Fontainebleau of April 11 1814 which set the terms of Napoleon's abdication and ended an era. Dupont had been one of Napoleon's most distinguished generals but his surrender in the disastrous Spanish campaign led to disgrace and imprisonment. After the fall of Napoléon Dupont became Minister of War for Louis XVIII and in just such letters as this to Marshal Victor - one of Napoleon's most trusted generals - negotiated the acquiescence of Napoléon's military leaders: in translation "Monsieur le Maréchal; - The provisional government has read with intense interest the declaration in which your Excellency has announced his adherence to the act of the Senate pronouncing the abdication of Napoleon Buonaparte and the restoration of the Bourbons on the throne on their ancestors. By this declaration taken in the interest of the country your Excellency has established anew a claim to the gratitude of the French people as well as the respect and good will of His Majesty Louis XVIII. Such is the opinion sir of the provisional government - and I am more than happy to be its messenger on this memorable occasion". unknown
