Reminiscencies Ancestral Anecdotal and Historic
<p>A gorgeous survivor that looks new until one checks small details. The front-board in an akmost patrician purple has a bright gilt coat of arms of the Ulster King of Arms which as a title of the author. Spine in like colors and brilliant. fresh. So what are the small deatils that prevent my listint it as NEW. Bottom right fron corney has a miniscule losss of colour that may not show on the scan. Check! Inside front board must have been a bookplate becasue I see a trace of mounting. I will show the scan so you may assess whether it is significant In all other respects perfection with the tone of 132 years. 380 pages including the index. Undated but shown by Worldcat as FIRST PUBLISHED IN 1882.</p><p>Burke is perhaps best known as editor of Burke's Peerage 1847 et seq. In 1873 he wrote "the Rise of Great Families;" Reminiscencies is an update of that and surprisingly a scarcer book.</p> Longmans Green hardcover

BURKE (Edmund)
Appel des Whigs modernes aux Whigs anciens. Traduit de l'anglais par Madame de Rivarol.
In-8, plein veau marbré de l'époque, dos lisse orné de caissons fleuronnés et cloisonnés, pièce de titre de maroquin fauve, tranches rouges, (2), 212 p. Première édition française de 'An appeal from the new to the old Whigs' dans la traduction de Louise de Rivarol, épouse d'Antoine de Rivarol, le célèbre journaliste, essayiste et pamphlétaire En réponse à son exclusion du parti Whig à la suite de la publication de ses 'Réflexions sur la Révolution ', Burke publia anonymement cet 'Appel'. Il y justifie et complète les thèses développées dans son essai et tente de démontrer que sa critique de la Révolution française est conforme à la pensée des Whigs et à l'héritage intellectuel de la Glorieuse Révolution de 1688. (France littéraire, I, 569. Martin & Walter, 5575. Todd, 56j). Mors légèrement frotté. Petit accroc à la pièce de titre. Bon exemplaire, bien conservé.

BURKE (Edmund)
Recherches philosophiques sur l'origine des idées que nous avons du Beau & du Sublime, Précédées d'une dissertation sur le Goût, traduites de l'Anglois de M. Burke, par l'Abbé D. F.... [i.e. Des François].
2 tomes reliés en un volume in-12 (167 x 102 mm), demi-veau de l'époque, dos lisse orné de compartiments fleuronnés et cloisonnés, pièce de titre de maroquin bordeaux, tranches rouges, (2), xii, (4), 204 p. et (8), 216 p. Première édition française de 'A Philosophical Enquiry into the Origin of Our Ideas of the Sublime and Beautiful' traduite sur la deuxième édition anglaise par l’abbé Louis-Antoine Des François (1728-1800), avec l'assistance de Sir James MacDonald et peut-être de David Hume lui-même, alors secrétaire de Lord Hertford ambassadeur de Grande Bretagne à Paris, selon Todd. Publié en anglais en 1757, l’essai obtint un très large succès dès sa sortie. Il est le premier à opérer le déplacement de la réflexion sur la nature et l’art, de la sphère rhétorique au terrain psycho-physiologique et à opposer systématiquement le sublime au beau. L’ouvrage exerça une influence décisive sur Diderot comme sur Kant et sur l’ensemble de "l’esthétique des Lumières". (Todd, 'Bibliography of E. Burke', 5kkLL, p. 40). Petite fente en tête d'un mors (3 cm). Papier des plats légèrement épidermé. Très bon exemplaire, très frais, relié à l'époque.
