‎Vilnius: Drukarnia XX Bazylianów 1811. Scarce Polish translation of Georg Sartorius's Von den Elementen des National-Reichthums und von der Staatswirtschaft nach Adam Smith translated from the second German edition of 1806 first 1796 translated by Jan Znosko holder of the chair of political economy at the Vilnian University from 1810 to 1823. "Znosko established his credentials with a work entitled A Science of Political Economy according to Adam Smith thought by his contemporaries to be an original work but which later turned out to be a translation of the second editoin of Gaorg Sartorius's 1796 Handbuch. The book is of course a summary of Wealth of Nations but in places Znosko inserts some critical obervations printed in a smaller typeface. The longest of these is related to Smith's conception of 'fertile' and 'infertile' labour that is productive and unproductive labour."

The editor of the review was count Georg Adlersparre an army officer and a political writer who in 1809 was to become one of the prime-movers behind the dethronement of the king. Adlersparre to was an admirer of Adam Smith. In 1799-1800 he published in the 'Läsning' his own Swedish translation of several selections from Wealth of Nations. In some cases Adlersparre added footnotes making it easier for the readers to apply Smith's ideas to Swedish conditions. Those translations to the best of my knowledge were the first ones of Wealth of Nations in Sweden. They were followed by translations of other parts of Wealth of Nations published in 1800 amd 1808. This time the translator was Erik Erland Bodell an official of the Swedish Customs and thus if you like a colleague of Adam Smith." Cheng-chung Adam Smith Across Nations. Despite the comparatively late translation into Swedish it still had a profound influence not on economists since they were well aware of the original work in English but upon politics and public opinion in general: "There are few things more striking to the modem student of the history of ideas in Sweden than the negative phenomenon that Sweden was almost entirely uninfluenced by this fact and thus remained almost unaffected by English economic thought during a period when its superiority was most evident. As far as I am acquainted with the Swedish economic discussion and our popular economic literature of the 1860's and 1870's there is almost no trace of any influence from English writers. .Of Adam Smith we have still only one abbreviated translation of his famous work and that was published as late as during this century; and as far as I know nothing of Ricardo's or Malthus' exists in Swedish nor do any of the major economic works of J.S.

‎Yverdon: De Felice 1781. An attractive set Second edition in book form of Blavet's translation of The Wealth of Nations the earliest obtainable. Jean-Louis Blavet 1719-c.1809 was librarian for the prince du Conti; he had already published a translation of The Theory of Moral Sentiments in 1774-75. Blavet later claimed that Smith personally requested he translate The Wealth of Nations and sent him a copy. Blavet's translation was first published periodically in the Journal de l'agriculture from February 1779 to December 1780 and in book form in Paris earlier in 1781 in an edition of only 20 copies offprinted from the Journal de l'agriculture appearance. Only two copies of that edition are now known Carpenter p. 33. This edition was printed in Switzerland and apparently distributed largely outside France. Blavet claimed to not have been involved but "evidence suggests otherwise" ibid. p. 36. The Wealth of Nations was first published in French in 1778-79 by an unknown translator; Carpenter notes it as full of errors. Blavet's translation marks the second appearance in the language. 6 vols duodecimo 161 x 95 mm. Contemporary mottled calf twin orange and green spine labels marbled endpapers red edges. Contemporary annotation to vol. V p. 240. Slight wear at extremities slight worming to spines still a very attractive set contents clean. Tribe 24. Kenneth E.
