There follow two scenes of a gentleman and a gentlewoman at their writing desks and the quills and correct postures for writing are shown. The cutting of the quill is explained and the various shapes of nib are displayed. The Encyclopédie was meant as a practical guide and the preparatory exercises in this suite are a fine example of this. The plates and the text entry for Lettres are largely the work of Charles Paillasson. Paillasson was appointed master of the Communauté des maîtres écrivains in 1756 a writer to the King's Cabinet in 1776 and eventually became the First Secretary of the Office of the King four years later. Many other related text entries are included and these tackle more specific subjects. Chevalier Louis de Jaucourt wrote on oriental writing and hieroglyphs while Abbé Edme Mallet discusses Ecritures Saintes or Holy Scripture. Antoine-Gaspard Boucher D'Argis contributes a number of entries and various other subjects such as tachygraphy are approached. unknown‎

Vol 1 1780 5 pages 371 & 455-460 from volume VI of the Encyclopédie 1756 including La ville de Faenza en Italie and Fayence en général 1 page 609 from volume XVI of the Encyclopédie 1765 including information on Fayence trezalée 2 pages 33 & 518 from volume IV of the Supplément à l'Encyclopédie 1777 which includes Manufacture de fayence and Poterie de fayence With some browning to a few leaves. All aspects of pottery and crockery have been examined in these plates originally designed by Lucotte. Opening with a scene of the earthworks the plates display both simple and ornate crockery a variety of tools and pieces of equipment and most notably different types of pottery wheels with accurate representations of kilns and a pottery mill. Lucotte's contribution to the plates volumes is far more extensive than to the text volumes designing over 650 himself and writing around forty-five commentaries. He was heavily influenced by the Descriptions des arts et métiers of the Paris Académie royale des sciences as seen here. Although not working on one of his specialities he approaches his work on pottery and crockery with his characteristic enthusiasm and attention to detail. unknown‎

‎1763. Encyclopédie ou dictionnaire raisonné des sciences des arts et des métiers. Plates vol. 2 Paris 1763 Folio 253 x 393mm. 3 pages of descriptive text and 11 loose plates with their accompanying 2 text sheets from the volume of plates. Slight browning to margins a little spotting otherwise very good. The 11 plates and descriptive text for the entry of Faiseur de Metier à Bas from volume II of plates. Plates are split into two sets with 7 numbered plates in the first set and 4 numbered plates in the second. The set titles are Métier à faire des bas and Travail du bas au metier. There are six double plates in the first set Plates 2-7 and two in the second set Plates 1 & 2. Plate 4 from the first set has a 1.5 inch tear down crease. 3 pages 463-465 from volume X of the Encyclopédie 1765 including information on the looms used. With some browning to a few leaves.

Indeed a great variety of eighteenth-century looms are depicted each helpfully annotated in the accompanying text sheets. Diderot visited a most of the small ateliers and larger factories which were written on often accompanied by Goussier the 'third encyclopédist' and the motivating force behind the plates volumes. No publication before this or for many years after devoted this amount of attention to the mechanical arts. The Encyclopédistes were devoted to the propagation of new ideas and improved methods and this suite is a fine example also accompanied by the text entry for Metier by Chevalier Louis de Jaucourt. unknown‎

The main entry for Théâtres spread over twelve pages was written by Chevalier Louis de Jaucourt the often overshadowed contributor to the Encylopédie. He was sometimes criticised for being a compiler and not an original thinker but in this article he presents some of his rarely heard personal opinions. One of his strongest sentiments was that the garden was the ideal scenery for the theatrical representation of human action. He develops this idea using the examples of the Saint Germain en Laye and the pastoral vineyards around Rome. Also included with this suite of plates are numerous other articles. Of particular note are the two supplementary entries for Salles de Spectacles by Rousseau and Théâtres by Diderot himself who had had an interest in and intention to enter the theatre at an early age. The plates and their text played a substantial part in the remodelling and rethinking of the theatre at this period. Not only did the plates contribute to the spread of the 'horseshoe'-shaped theatre but they suggest entirely original ideas to improve other factors. An instance of this creativity is found in the description of the Theatre Royal Turin where remodelling to improve acoustics and to provide proper ventilation are explored and recommended. These revolutionary plans pre-empted by around one hundred years the 19th-century changes which took place in the technology of the theatre. These plates are also an excellent historical record of many theatres no longer in existence charting their architecture and examining their conditions. unknown‎

His twenty-one plates here show many birds now scarce or endangered and are an essential document of eighteenth-century French ornithology. Also included is Goussier's chart of various bird bills and feet. The text entries accompanying these plates help to explain the anatomy of birds as understood at the time. These include the entries for Carnacier Estomac and Ventricule. Other articles are on owls birdsong and ornithology in general. The contributors to these sections include Pierre Tarin a French writer and doctor and Chevalier Louis de Jaucourt an aristocrat who wrote around one quarter of the completed Encyclopédie. unknown‎
