( BASNAGE Jacques De Beauval )
Entretiens sur la religion
In 16, pp. (16) + 574 + (12). Es. leggermente rifilato ma senza perdita di testo. P. pl. coeva verde con bordura oro ai piatti e decorazione ai piccoli ferri al dorso con intarsi in pelle rosso a segnare le nervature. Poce spelature. Edizione originale di questa rara opera del Jacques Basnage, prete protestante, storico e diplomatico nato a Rouen nel 1653. Fu pastore della chiesa riformata a Rouen ma, in seguito alla revoca dell'editto di Nantes, dovette fuggire nei Paesi Bassi nel 1685. Autore di molte opere sulla chiesa protestante e sulla storia dei suoi tempi, intervenne anche parecchie controversie diplomatiche tanto da far dire a Voltaire: 'il etait plus propre a etre ministre d'etat que d'une paroisee'. Opera molto rara.

(EARLY PENAL REFORM)
The Journal of Prison Discipline and Philanthropy. New Series Nos. 1-10.
Philadelphia: Philadelphia Society for Alleviating the Miseries of Public Prisons 1862-1871. First editions. Octavo. Various paginations but all complete. Publisher’s printed green wrappers two issues have had their wrappers reattached a few instances of erosion to spine but never affecting integrity. Overall in very good condition.There were two main series of this publication. The first series began in 1845 under the title Pennsylvania Journal of Prison Discipline and Philanthropy and in 1862 a second or “new†series was begun leaving off the Pennsylvania no doubt in hopes of national readership. It was a yearly publication. This two-series format continued until the journal ceased publication in 1920 after which it was succeeded by what is now known as The Prison Journal. The Pennsylvania Prison Society founded in Philadelphia in 1787 was the first private agency to concentrate specifically on correctional issues. The society's journal was one of the earliest periodicals devoted solely to studies of correction and crime. The articles run the gamut of subjects related to these fields from discussions of penal philosophy to inmate interviews and even down to the brass tacks of the costs involved in running a prison. . The journal not only provides information on prison conditions and the evolution of the American penal system particularly in Pennsylvania but also offers a detailed record of the penal reform movement in this country. They were remarkably foresighted. This can be seen in the following two quotes; "The readers of this Journal need not be told that we are not very sanguine in our expectations of the permanent reformation of the mass of convicts. There are doubtless instances enough of success in such efforts to warrant and encourage them and we are not to suppose that they are ever wholly useless. The true position for us to take is this. The earlier we address ourselves to the cultivation of right principles and habits in a human being the more hopeful is the prospect of success" and this little gem "May we not easily forget that between a score of men in our prison cells and twenty score of men that may be selected from society at large the only difference is that the former are detected rogues and the latter are perhaps greater rogues undetected" It was a bold movement away from prison as a punishing experience toward a kinder belief that prisoners must once again become useful members of society.

FIRST EDITIONS of the other 13 volumes. 170 x 103 mm. 6 3/4 x 4 1/8". 22 volumes bound as 13. <br/> Pleasing contemporary calf by Leighton stamp-signed on verso of front flyleaf covers framed with a double blind rule raised bands spine compartments with a single gilt sun tool russet morocco labels lettered in gilt all edges sprinkled.

A few light scratches scuffs and spots to leather each volume with offset from ribbon page marker other trivial defects but a fine and attractive set--extraordinarily fresh and clean internally in bindings essentially without wear.<br/> <br/> Containing a rarely seen complete run of 22 separate works in 13 volumes this attractive set represents the joint efforts of a female Victorian polymath and major publisher William Pickering to introduce the general public to a very wide range of subjects partly to contribute to general popular education and partly to alert the public to the need for reform. Caroline Cornwallis 1786-1858 was a writer scholar and feminist activist whose life-long self-directed course of study led her to explore subjects as diverse as mineralogy theology Tuscan law and the Ancient Egyptian language. In 1842 the first work in the "Small Books on Great Subjects" series appeared authored anonymously by Cornwallis she is named only as "A Pariah" and the editorship of the series is credited to "A Few Well-Wishers to Knowledge". Along with initiating and editing the series Cornwallis composed all but four of the books herself the second and third numbers were written by John Barlow #15 by Wilhelm von Humboldt and #16 by David Power. The works cover philosophy psychology chemistry Greek philosophy Christian history and theology biology law grammar geology politics and more and proved to be a great success in Britain and America. Some of the volumes are histories of general interest "A Brief View of Greek Philosophy up to the Age of Pericles" and "Christian Sects in the Nineteenth Century"; others are of significant scientific content "The Connection Between Physiology and Intellectual Philosophy" and "On Man’s Power Over Himself to Prevent or Control Insanity; still others are strongly reformist in thrust "On the Principles of Criminal Law" decrying the harshness of punitive Victorian laws and "On the Philosophy of Ragged Schools" dealing with the pressing issue of educating London's poor. Initially "Small Books on Great Subjects" was published by William Pickering but upon his 1853 bankruptcy John W. Parker took over the series. Stray volumes of this series are readily available but complete sets especially in the condition seen here are much more difficult to find. William Pickering (and John W. Parker and Son) unknown
