Diderot, Denis A cura di M. Brini Savorelli
Il Nipote di Rameau.
cm. 15 x 21, xxxviii-92 pp. Immagini della Ragione ?Il Nipote di Rameau?, che pu? essere considerato il capolavoro di Diderot sia dal punto di vista letterario che filosofico, sottolinea il rilievo che esso ebbe tra i filosofi del ?700 francese. Definito da Fr. Schlegel ?il racconto della nascita dell?ironia? in ?una struttura situazionale che permise a Diderot di volgere l?Illuminismo in dialogo? (Jauss), questo affascinante componimento sull?etica, la politica e la musicologia ben esprime l?intento illuminista di far luce sul lato oscuro dell?umana natura. ?Le neveu de Rameau? is probably Denis Diderot?s masterpiece, both from literary and philosophical standpoints, underscoring his prominence among the philosophers of Eighteenth Century France. Defined by Fredrich Schlegel ?the tale of the birth of irony?, in ?a situational frame that allowed Diderot to turn Enlightenment into a dialogue? (Jauss), this charming composition on ethic, politics and musicology presents the lumi?res intent in enlightening the dark side of human nature. 192 gr. xxxviii-92 p.

Agriculture Fontainer Fountain-Maker. Encyclopédie ou dictionnaire raisonné des sciences des arts et des métiers. Plates vol. I.
Paris 1762. 32 pages of descriptive text & 4 loose plates. Slight browning tomargins a little spotting otherwise very good. § The 4 plates and descriptive text for the entry of Agriculture Fontainer from volume I of plates. Plates are numbered as 5 plans with 2 plans on sheet 2.27 pages 81-107 from volume VII of the Encyclopédie 1757 including Origine des fontaines Détermination de la quantité des vapeurs qiu s'élevent de la mer and La pénétration de l'eau pluviale dans les premieres couches de la terre1 page 349 from volume XV of the Encyclopédie 1765 including Sonde dont il se sert pour forer la terre & trouver les eaux3 pages 99-101 from volume III of the Supplément à l'Encyclopédie 1777 which includes Les fontaines des jardinsWith some browning to a few leaves.This suite of plates examines closely the eighteenth-century method of calculating the pressure required to produce a fountain with a certain height of water column. The plates demonstrate the complicated process of measuring the altitudes and gradients at which the water would fall through the pipes laid and the hydromechanics involved in devising a water container of the right shape and size. A further plate displays some popular fountain garden layouts.The plates are accompanied by a series of important and extensive articles on fountains. The first of these and the most substantial is by D'Alembert. Co-editor of the Encyclopédie he had already distinguished himself as a mathematician mechanician and physicist. D'Alembert's formula was named after him and one field which he had a great influence in was fluid mechanics. Here he expertly tackles the difficult topic of fountains and their creation examining the mathematics and physics involved.Following articles include Fontaines Artificielles by Antoine-Joseph Desallier D'Argenville who wrote around six hundred articles for the project mostly on gardening Diderot's Fontaine Domestiques and Jacques-François Blondel's description of fountains and their role in architecture. In all this set of articles includes contributions by some of the most distinguished of the many Encyclopédists. unknown books

Sculpture Fonte des Statues Équestres Casting on Equestrian Statues. Encyclopédie ou dictionnaire raisonné des sciences des arts et des métiers. Plates vol. 8.
Paris 1771. Folio 253 x 393mm. 3 pages of descriptive text & 5 loose plates with their accompanying text sheet. Slight browning to margins a little spotting otherwise very good. § The 5 plates and descriptive text for the entry of Sculpture Fonte des Statues Équestres from volume VIII of plates. Plates are numbered 1-5. Plate 3 is continued on a second sheet Plate 4 is a double plate and plate 5 is a triple plate.1 page 822 from volume XIV of the Encyclopédie 1765 including Observations sur les chevaux des statues équestres2 pages 497 & 502 from volume XV of the Encyclopédie 1765 including information on Équestre StatueWith some browning to a few leaves.This suite of plates is noteworthy as a record of the practises of sculptors of this period. The illustrations and their explanations are influenced heavily by the writing and descriptions of Germain Boffrand. Boffrand had served as the first architect of numerous 18th-century noblemen and had been a witness to the casting of Louis XIV's statue by Giradon and Jean-Balthazar Keller. The statue was melted during the revolution and only a smaller model remains which can be found in the Musée du Louvre. On hearing of the troubles Lemoyne was having casting a similar statue of Louis XV Boffrand sought to assist Lemoyne recognising that he was the only remaining assistant who had taken notes at the earlier casting. Boffrand wrote his Description de ce qui a été Practiqué pour Fondre en Bronze d'un Seul Jet la Figure Équestre de Louis XIV enabling Lemoyne to complete his work although this statue was also later destroyed in the Revolution. Diderot's plates here presented are an almost exact copy of Boffrand's originals only shrunk and simplified to suit the Encylopédie's format.Included with these plates is the relevant entry for equestrian statues written by Jaucourt the 18th-century aristocrat who wrote around one quarter of the Encyclopédie voluntarily. unknown books

There are 6 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.The plates in this suite are as much a guide to the use of the loom as they are to its construction. Indeed a great variety of 18th century looms are depicted each helpfully annotated in the accompanying text sheets. Diderot visited 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 books
