LAVOISIER Antoine Laurent
Traité Élémentaire de Chimie présenté dans un Ordre nouveau et d'après les Découvertes modernes.Seconde Édition
Two folding printed tables & 13 folding engraved plates drawn & engraved by Madame Lavoisier. xliv 322 pp.; viii 331 pp. Two vols. 8vo antique sheep-backed marbled boards some foxing flat spines gilt. Paris: Cuchet 1793. Although described as the "seconde édition" on the title this seems to follow a pirated "seconde édition" printed by de Boiste earlier in the same year. Our edition was printed by Chardon. "One of the great milestones in the history of chemical literature. By common consent modern chemistry begins with this work 'which finally freed the science from its phlogiston chains and formed the starting point of its modern progress. It may be said to have done almost as much for chemistry as Newton's Principia did for physics' Zeitlinger. Lavoisier used the balance to demonstrate the weight of matter at every chemical change defined the terms element and compound explained combustion and the rusting of metals as a chemical combination with oxygen and through his concept of the conservation of matter developed methods of chemical analysis. The book contains the first list of twenty-three chemical elements and their compounds."-Neville II p. 21. Very good set. ❧ Cole 778. Duveen & Klickstein 157. Neville II p. 23. hardcover books

FIRST EDITION second issue second printing with the flowered vase on the title-page previously a cherub and no colophon on page 314. Lavoisier's new terminology of chemistry was an important part of his reforms in the science and it has been in use with some modifications ever since its introduction. "The merits of the new nomenclature are even today more than evident since with only slight modification it is still the basis of the language of modern chemistry." Duveen & Klickstein pp. 119-126. Louis Guyton de Morveau was trained as a lawyer who taught himself the subject of chemistry. From 1776-1789 he taught public courses in chemistry at the Dihon Academy. He was professor of chemistry at the Ecole Polytechnique from 1794-1811 twice serving as its director.

LAVOISIER Antoine Laurent 1743 1794.
Opuscules Physiques et Chimiqes. Seconde Edition.
Paris:: Deterville An IX 1801. 1801. 8vo. 197 x 122 mm xxx 2 443 pp. Three folding engraved plates. Speckled edges; paper flaws in K2 and O5 affecting text. Quarter-bound in 19th century half calf over brown marbled boards raised bands gilt-stamped title and gilt-rules on spine; covers off. Housed in a custom folding chemise and red quarter morocco and cloth slipcase raised bands gilt rules and gilt-stamped titles; light shelf wear. Second edition second issue. "An entirely different issue of the usual 'Seconde edition.' Deterville has reprinted the entire book with the errata corrected in the text and the plates re-engraved by Tardieu l'aine Rue de Sorbonne No. 385. In the original edition the engraver had been de la Gardette who incidentally engraved Lavoisier's book-plate. The half-title with the titre de relais is present as before. The remark which appears at the end of the prior issue 'Le Privilege du Roi se trouve aux Memoires de l'Academie Royale del Sciences' is here omitted." Duveen & Klickstein. This is Lavoisier's first major work. In this work on combustion and calcination which first appeared in 1774 Lavoisier first published his investigations into the nature and properties of gases in connection with numerous experiments and laid the basis of his antiphlogistic theory. Lavoisier gives a history of gases and a detailed account of his experiments. It was in this pioneer work that he broke ground that was new to him and asserted himself on an important question that was in controversy. The Opuscules one of Lavoisier's four major works resulted from his study on combustion and experiments with phosphorus and sulfur and the conversion of calces into metals. The work consists of a historical section and an introduction on gases; the second part describes his experiments dealing with the problems of combustion calcination and air fixation. "Although Priestley isolated oxygen it was Lavoisier who discovered its real significance. He showed the true nature of the interchange of gases in the lungs and exploded Stahl's phlogiston theory." Garrison and Morton. A native Parisian Lavoisier was one of the most important scientists of the 18th century. Because of his loyalty to the Ancien Regime Lavoisier fell into disfavor with the ruling National Assembly. He and his father were both arrested on 24 December 1793 tried on 8 May 1794 and executed by guillotine the same day. As the apocryphal story goes Lavoisier appealed at his trial for time to complete some scientific work at which the presiding judge replied "The Republic has no need of scientists." Authentic however is the remark attributed to Lagrange the day after Lavoisier's execution: "It took them only an instant to cut off that head and a hundred years may not produce another like it." The titre de relais reads: "Cet ouvrage a l'exception des tables fut imprime pendant la detention du citoyen Lavoisier. Il ne faut donc pas etre surprise si l'edition n'en est pas belle; on se rappelera sans peine qu'a cette epoque les matiepremieres manquoient pour l'impression." trans.: "This work with the exception of the tables was printed during the detention of Citizen Lavoisier. One should not be surprised if the edition is not beautiful; one will note without sorrow that this impression is without the errors of the first edition.".

Méthode de Nomenclature Chimique Proposée par MM. de Morveau Lavoisier Bertholet & De Fourcroy. On y a joint un nouveau Systême de Caractères Chimiques adaptés à cette Nomenclature par MM. Hassenfratz & Adet
One large folding printed table & six folding engraved plates. 2 p.l. 314 pp. 8vo cont. mottled calf foot of one joint repaired. Paris: Cuchet 1787. First edition second issue of one of the key books in the history of modern chemistry. Lavoisier's discoveries made a new and rational chemical nomenclature imperative. Initiated by Guyton de Morveau still an adherent of the phlogiston theory the project was taken up by Lavoisier who soon convinced Guyton of the truth of his system. They entered into collaboration with Berthollet and Fourcroy. The result of their combined efforts is contained in the present volume the most important milestone in the development of chemical nomenclature. The new nomenclature with only slight modifications is still the basis of the language of modern chemistry. In the second printing of the first edition the following pages are misnumbered: 241-56 instead of 257-72. Very good copy. ❧ Cole 566. Duveen & Klickstein 129.

Edition originale de cette relation de l'affaire dite du 'Bateau chargé de poudre'. En pleine effervescence révolutionnaire, la population parisienne, qui craignait une trahison, se souleva pour empêcher un chargement de poudre de quitter Paris par bateau et s'en empara au Port Saint-Paul sur la Seine. Accusé d'avoir eu le projet d'expédier la poudre aux armées contre-révolutionnaires, Lavoisier faillit être lynché par la foule et dut se justifier devant les représentants de la Commune de Paris.

Lavoisier Antoine Laurent, Guyton de Morveau Louis Bernard, Dandolo Vincenzo
Trattato elementare di chimica presentato dietro un ordine nuovo dietro le scoperte moderne; con figure del Sig. Lavoisier; Dizionario Vecchio e Nuovo di Nomenclatura chimica il secondo de' quali contiene la chiave e le regole del nuovo sistema di chimica; Esame dekke affinità chimiche di tutti i relativi sistemi de' più celebri chimici d'Europa opera del Sig. Morveau. (4 tomi in tutto, prima assai rara edizione completa).
In 8° (20,5x13,5 cm): 4 tomi: VIII, 408, (2 b.) pp. e 2 grandi c. di tav. più volte ripiegate, VIII, 411-745, (1) pp. e XIII carte di tav. ripieg., VIII, 347, (5 b.) pp., X, (2), 251, (5 b.) pp. Il terzo e quarto tomo non presentano l'occhietto con il titolo "Trattato elementare di chimica", nel terzo volume non presenti le 4 pagine di "Avviso al lettore" evidentemente mai aggiunte in questo esemplare. Ai frontespizi, nel margine esterno bianco, antico timbro settecentesco dell'alienata "Biblioteca degli Israeliti di Mantova" dove come in altri esemplari provenienti da questa celebre biblioteca privata, è stata abrasa la parola "Mantova" (nei tomi 1 e 3 fino a crare una piccola mancanza di carta, integrata con vecchia pecetta, in corrispondenza della parola Mantova, fra l'altro perfettamente leggibile nel primo tomo, stessa piccola mancanza di carta integrata con pecetta antica, in corrispondenza di altri due timbri, sempre degli Israeliti di Mantova, presenti nel margine basso bianco a metà, circa, del tomo I e II). Legature coeve in mezza pelle caratteristiche degli Israeliti di Mantova con dorso spugnato e piatti in carta coeva color caffè. Autore, titolo e numero dei volumi impressi in oro al dorso. Prima rarissima edizione italiana a trovarsi completa, di uno dei trattati della storia della chimica, pubblicata per la prima volta in francese nel 1789, dal grande chimico, biologo, filosofo ed economista francese, Antoine-Laurent de Lavoisier (Parigi, 26 agosto 1743 – Parigi, 8 maggio 1794). Il Traité di Antoine Laurent Lavoisier (1743-1794), pubblicato in Francia nel 1789, uscì in Italia nel 1791. La prima edizione andò esaurita dopo soli quattro mesi, la seconda comparve nel 1792 e la terza nel 1796. Sappiamo che le belle tavole che accompagnano l'opera, vennero disegnate da Marie Anne Paulze Lavoisier, moglie dell’Autore. Anche lei era appassionata di chimica. Aveva tradotto per il marito il Saggio sul flogisto e la costituzione degli acidi di Richard Kirwan ed era stata allieva del celebre pittore David che, tra l’altro, la ritrasse accanto al marito. L'edizione italiana vede la cura e la traduzione del noto scienziato, politico ed agronomo, Vincenzo Dandolo (Venezia, 22 o 26 ottobre 1758 – Varese, 12 dicembre 1819). "Il suo Traité Élémentaire de Chimie (Trattato di chimica elementare, 1789), è considerato il primo moderno libro di testo di chimica; presentava una visione unificata delle nuove teorie della chimica, negava l'esistenza del flogisto e conteneva una chiara enunciazione della "legge di conservazione della materia": «Rien ne se perd, rien ne se crée» "Nulla si perde, nulla si crea". (Albert Einstein, più di cent'anni dopo, riformulò questa legge in altri termini.) Inoltre, Lavoisier chiarificò il concetto di elemento come sostanza semplice che non può essere scomposta da nessun metodo conosciuto dell'analisi chimica, e concepì una teoria della formazione dei composti chimici a partire dagli elementi. In aggiunta stilò una lista di elementi, o sostanze, che non potevano essere scomposte, che includeva ossigeno, azoto, idrogeno, fosforo, mercurio, zinco, e zolfo. La sua lista, comunque, includeva anche luce e calorico, che credeva essere sostanze materiali". Il terzo tomo contiene l'opera "Esame delle affinità chimiche" di Louis Bernard Guyton de Morveau (1737 - 1816). Il quarto tomo contiene un dizionario vecchio e nuovo di nomenclatura chimica, un dizionario nuovo e vecchio di nomenclatura chimica, la dissertazione di Lavoisier sulla respirazione, la dissertazione di Lavoisier e Seguin sulla traspirazione. Prima rarissima edizione a trovarsi completa dei quattro tomi. Rif. Bibl.: Duveen & Klickstein p.180 and p.149; Guareschi, La chimica in Italia, pp. 444-6; D.B.I., XXXII/pp. 511-516.<BR>

Original blind and gilt-stamped maroon cloth; heavily rubbed silver-fish trainings. Good . "In 1889 to celebrate the centenary of the French Revolution Berthelot . . . was called upon to commemorate men of science. He prepared material for a lecture on Lavoisier and on the basis of this and Grimaux's study of 1888 he produced a book La revolution chimique Lavoisier. One detects special sympathy by the patriotic nineteenth-century French chemist for the eighteenth-century liberal who had also used his scientific knowledge to help his country. Berthelot's publication of extracts from the laboratory notebooks of Lavoisier which were in the possession of the Academy performed a valuable service to the history of science. Whatever criticisms may be leveled at Berthelot's earlier publications on the history of chemistry this study was an astonishing achievement" – DSB vol. II p. 64. Felix Alcan, 1890. hardcover books

A bibliography of the works of Antoine Laurent Lavoisier 1743-1794. Supplement. 2 vols.
1954/65. London Wm. Dawson & Sonst Ltd. and E.Weil 1954/65 8° XXIII 1 491; XIII 3 173 5 pp. Frontispiece and 6 plates Facsimile bookplate of Lavoisier on front paste-down of both volumes 2 orig. publisher's cloth dustwrappers. First Edition! "The principle has been followed in this bibliography of listing each paper and every volume in which Lavoisier's name is given as one of the authors or which were issued by an organization during his tenure of executive office also in those cases in which his authorship could not be incontestably proved or even when the evidence suggested that he did not write a specific article although he signed his name to it. The circumstances are pointed out in each individual case of this type. All anonymous publications the original manuscripts of which are preserved and which are printed in the Oeuvres have also been included. In the notes to each item Lavoisier's relationship to the particular piece under consideration has always been indicated. The material thus assembled is arranged in six sections. Section A contains all his contributions to periodical works arranged in chronological order. Lavoisier's four major works are described in section B. His minor separate works and contributions to separate works will be found in section C. Section D comprises a number of miscellaneous works containing material written by Lavoisier. Section E consists of a group of works which print reports on them submitted to the Academie by Lavoisier or by him in collaboration with others. Section F lists collected works devoted to Lavoisier only and which contain more than one of his writings. The separate numbered items are not only bibliographically described but they are also analyzed as to their content and historical importance. It is realized that the analytical commentaries are extensive but it was felt that they would be especially useful owing to the scarcity and consequent difficulty in consulting the originals of many of Lavoisier's works." - Introduction. Cross references are copiously used the separate numbered items are not only bibliographically described but they are also analyzed as to their content and historical importance. hardcover

LAVOISIER, (ANTOINE-LAURENT). - EMBODYING LAVOISIER'S QUANTITATIVE METHOD, HIS FIRST PAPER
Analyse du Gypse. 1765.
Paris L'Imprimerie Royale 1768. 4to. Extract from "Mémoires fe Mathematique et de Physique Présentés à l'Academie des Sciences par divers Savans" Tome V. With tittlepage to vol. 5. Pp. 341-357. Clean and fine. <br/><br/><em>First appearance of Lavoisier's FIRST PUBLISHED CHEMICAL PAPER introducing quantitative methods in chemistry and in which he for the first time brought a hydrometer in use to measure the specific gravities of components of a chemical solutions. Lavoisier defended the originality of his approach in the following words: "It is to the art of combination that the knowledge of the specific gravities of fluids can bring most light. This aspect of chemistry is much less advanced than we thought we possess barely the rudiments of it." "This first paper which in so many respects embodies the quantitative methods Lavoisier was to employ in his later work had in fact been largely anticipated by others notably by Marggraf who had already discovered the composition of gypsum and shown that it contained water phlegm. Yet Lavoisier’s work was more through; and his paper his first contribution to the Academy of Sciences read to the Academy on 25 February 1765 appeared in 1768. The paper offered. - Lavoisier’s earliest chemical investigation his study of gypsum was mineralogical in character; begun in the autumn of 1764 it was intended as the first paper in a series devoted to the analysis of mineral substances. This systematic inventory was to be carried out not by the method of J. H. Pott "who exposed minerals to the action of fire" but by reactions in solution by the "wet way." "I have tried to copy nature" Lavoisier wrote. "Water this almost universal solvent "is the cheif agent she employs; it is also the one I have adopted in my work." Using a hydrometer he determined with the care the solubility of different samples of gypsum samples of selenite or lapis specularis some supplied by Guettard and Rouelle. He made similar measurements with calcined gypsumplaster of paris. Analysis convinced him that this gypsum was a neutral salt a compound of vitriolic sulfuric acid and a calcareous or chalky base. Not content with having shown by analysis the composition of the gypsum Lavoisier completed his proof by a synthesis following as he said the way that nature had formed the gypsum. He further demonstrated that gypsum when transformed by strong heating into plaster of Paris gives off a vapor which he showed to be pure water making up about a quarter of the weight of gypsum. Conversely when plaster of Paris is mixed with water and turns into a solid mass it avidly combines with water. Using the expression first coined by Rouelle he called this the "water of crystallization." DSB.Partington III pp. 378-79. - </em> unknown

Lavoisier, Antoine Laurent
Bemerkungen über Verhalten und Verbrennen bey Gelegenheit der Abhandlung des Hrn. Scheele von Luft und Feuer 550-552. Bildung der gesten Luft der Kreidensäure oder besser der Kohlensäure 552-56; 55-75.
1788. Crells Chem. Annalen 1788/ 67. - Helmstädt Leipzig Müller 1788 8° pp.481-574 96 pp. 2 orig. Broschur. First German Edition of the report made by Lavoisier to the Académie on the French translation of Scheele's Chemische Abhandlung von der Luft und dem Feuer. "The review is a warm one with Lavoisier expressing a greater confidence in his own ideas because of the confirmation given them by Scheele's experiments. Scheele used phlogiston to explain his results. No record has been found as to the time when Lavoisier first read ths book. previously on August 8 1781 Bertholett and Lavoisier had already submitted a joint report on Dietrich's translation of Scheele's book which was printed for the first time in his Oeuvres IV 337-379." In the second article "Lavoisier proves that air fixe rally is a compound of carbon charcoal and oxygen; he details a good many of the experiments by which this fact was established. The work thus certainly forms a plank in the platform of his new theory. He was of the opinion that all acids contain oxygen that oxygen is in fact the acidifying principle in all acids and he therefore called air fixe carbonic acid. This view was confirm to him by the fact that a solution of the gas in water exhibits acid properties." Duveen & Klickstein Nr.61 63.

LAVOISIER, Marie-Anne Paulze (trans); KIRWAN, Richard
De la force des acides & de la proportion des substances qui composent les sels neutres
Paris: c.1791. A prime example of Madame Lavoisier's formidable analytic eye First edition scarce offprint issue of Madame Lavoisier's critical translation of the work of a prominent fellow of the Royal Society. In the UK institutional copies are recorded at UCL and in the Wellcome Collection. Marie-Anne Paulze Lavoisier 1758-1836 famously refuted the claims of the chemist Richard Kirwan 1733-1812 several times. In 1787 after he published his Essay on Phlogiston she brought out a similarly deprecatory translation complete with a preface which undermined his authority as an academic. Kirwan published Of the strength of acids and the proportion of ingredients in neutral salts in Dublin in 1791. In her translation Lavoisier's extensive annotations and critical apparatus focus on Kirwan's scientific and procedural errors. "II y a dans ces sortes d'expériences une cause d'erreurs qui paroit avoir échappé à M. Kirwan; c'est la grande quantité d'eau que l'acide carbonique est susceptible de dissoudre et qui échappe avec lui" "There is in these types of experiences a cause of errors which appears to have escaped Mr Kirwan: the large quantity of water which carbonic acid is likely to dissolve and which escapes with it" - p. 40. Marie-Anne married Antoine Lavoisier in 1771. She promoted their collaborative work to the international scientific community and used her command of languages to keep Antoine abreast of the latest developments. "Through her drawings translations interpretations of notes and skillful editing of Lavoisier's memoirs she made some important additions to the body of scientific knowledge. there are indications that she made some theoretical contributions" Ogilvie & Harvey. This translation was published in journal form in the Annales de Chimie which Antoine Lavoisier edited. Octavo 193 x 120 mm pp. 108. Woodcut headpieces and tables in the text. Recent red quarter morocco spine lettered in gilt marbled paper sides. Minimal wear minor foxing and creasing to contents: a very good copy indeed. Ogilvie & Harvey Biographical Dictionary of Women in Science II p. 753. unknown
