Principes de la philosophie morale
Principes de la philosophie moral DIDEROT Denis. Principes de la philosophie morale ou essai de M. S.sur le mÈrite et la vertu. Avec rÈflexions. Amsterdam: chez Zacherie Chatelain 1745. First edition. xxx 297 1 blank 10 tables des matiËres errata pp. With title-vignette two engraved frontispieces one for each part and two head-pieces by Fessard after Durand. Citron morocco gilt back with raised bands gilt triple-rule border on sides with gilt stamped floral ornament in corners inner gilt-dentelles all edges gilt. Lower cover slightly discolored otherwise a beautiful copy. Housed in a custom brown cloth clamshell. "Rather a paraphrase than a translation of Lord Shaftesbury's An Inquiry Concerning Virtue and Merit. Yet it is a very important work indeed for the growth and development of his thought. It was Diderot who furnished the RÈflexions in a preliminary discours and lengthy footnotes to which students of Diderot now turn for precious indications of the unfolding of his ideas.It will be noticed that the French version is anonymous neither Shaftesbury's name nor that of the translator was mentioned. The reason was that there was some danger involved in presenting to the French public a work that declared so boldly for the existence of a natural morality independant of any particular religion or church" Arthur M. Wilson Diderot p. 50. Tchemerzine-Scheler II p. 916. Thomas A checklist of major French authors in Oxford libraries 1526-1800 p. 47. HBS 66927. $5000 chez Zacherie Chatelain hardcover books

Furman Diderot A Critical Biography. Edges somewhat rubbed; hinges starting but sound; very good copy. 8vo contemporary mottled calf dark red morocco label gilt decorations and lettering. Vignette title-page two plates and two headpieces by Etienne Fessard after Louis Durand. ¶ The first book by the great French philosopher writer and polymath Denis Diderot 1713-1784 a translation of An Inquiry Concerning Virtue 1699 by Anthony-Ashley Cooper the Earl of Shaftesbury. Diderot adapted "Shaftesbury's text pretty freely adding his own interjections and digressions" - Furman. Diderot's Essai challenged the doctrine of the church which required that it be published anonymously and with a false imprint. The only evidence of authorship are the initials "M. S." in the title. Shaftesbury's essays like Lucretius's De Rerum Natura had an important influence on the young Diderot. Red oval stamp of the Bibliothèque du Clergé Paroisse St. Nicolas du Chardonnet on the title-page. <br/><br/> Amsterdam [i.e. Paris]: Chez Zacharie Chatelain, 1745 unknown books

Diderot Denis and Jean Baptiste le Rond d'Alembert. Robert Benard engraver
Statues Equestres. Sculpture Fonte des Statues Equestres Contenant Six Planches equivalentes a douze a cause de quatre doubles & d'une triple Casting of equestrian sculptures
Paris 1771. First Edition. Buckram cloth folio folder. . Near Fine. Folio 38.5 by 25 cm with two double plates 50 cm wide and the triple plate 68 cm wide. The six plates show the steps in the casting of massive equestrian statues one of the staples of public monuments before the twentieth century. As the rule with the plates in the Diderot and d'Alembert Encylcopedie though the plates are handsome works of art transcending their pedagogic purpose and the images here have an element of the curious and novel that separates them from more traditional equestrian artwork. The plates and their two page textual description that precedes them were carefully removed from the larger volume and remain attached to each other like a thinner brochure. Other than occasional light and insignificant soiling and minor age toning the plates are clean and fresh. The folder made to house them is of a modern buckram cloth decidedly utilitarian in appearance but not unattractive with their multi-color ribbon ties. <br/><br/> hardcover books
