[ROUILLE D'ORFEUIL (Gaspard Louis)]
1- L'Ami des François. Constantinople [i.e. Paris], 1771. 793, (2) f. "d'avis de l'éditeur" et d'errata. 2- L'Alambic Moral, ou Analyse raisonnée de tout ce qui a rapport à l'Homme. Par l'Ami des François. Maroc [i.e. Paris], 1773. xij, 570 p., (1) f. "d'Errata". (EXEMPLAIRE DE L'AUTEUR)
2 ouvrages reliés en 2 volumes in-8 (196 x 123 mm), plein maroquin rouge de l'époque, dos lisses ornés de compartiments richement fleuronnés et cloisonnés, pièces de titre de maroquin vert bronze, plats encadrés de triples filets garnis de fleurons d'angle, roulettes sur les coupes et les chasses, tranches dorées, gardes de tabis bleu. Exemplaire d'auteur (?) 1- Édition originale et unique de ce projet de réformes politiques, économiques et administratives, donné sous forme d'un voyage imaginaire utopique: un naufragé aborde le pays des Sérosages… Planche gravée en regard de la p. 531, qui figure un curieux: "Tableau de culture, pendant vingt-quatre ans". L'originalité du projet, par ailleurs inspiré des idéaux physiocratiques, réside en ce que l'auteur, en disciple de Rousseau, fait reposer son modèle sur l'hypothèse anthropologique d'une bonté originelle de l'homme et sur un principe d’autorité fondé sur celui de la famille. Ainsi, le narrateur s'adresse-t-il au roi Alcidor pour préconiser prioritairement l'éradication des vices inhérents à la société avant toute réforme structurelle: "Sire , en détruisant le luxe, les moeurs s'épurent d'eux-mêmes , les villes se débarrassent, les campagnes se repeuplent, les terres se défrichent, la population augmente, l'émulation renaît, la circulation se rétablit, le Royaume devient un Paradis terrestre & Votre Majesté verra sous son règne un second âge d'or" (p. 696). (Goldsmiths, 10717. Higgs, 5385. INED, 3938. Kress, 6818. Weller, II, p. 188). 2- Édition originale. L'auteur soumet, sous forme de dictionnaire philosophique classé par article, un vade-mecum des idéaux économiques, politiques et sociaux fondés sur le populationnisme, la défense de l'agriculture et la liberté du commerce. On y trouve des articles sur l'accouchement, l'adoption, l'adultère, l'agriculture, les banqueroutes, le cadastre, le célibat, les courtisanes, le divorce, la famine, les fêtes, l'hôpital, les loteries, les salaires... "Très varié et fort intéressant. Théories sur l'excellence de la population et de l'agriculture, sur la nécessité de modérer l'industrie, sur les dangers du luxe, des colonies, etc." (cf. longue analyse in INED, 3937 sq.). (Goldsmiths, 10955. Higgs, 5646. Kress, 6975). Homme des Lumières, acquis aux idées physiocratiques, Gaspard Louis Rouillé d'Orfeuil (1732-1791) devint conseiller, puis maître des requêtes au parlement de Paris, président au Grand Conseil, intendant de La Rochelle, puis de Champagne. Tenu en grande estime par Diderot, il a laissé une réputation "d'intendant modèle". Exemplaire de l'auteur, sans doute, comportant deux rajouts manuscrits repliés en marge (p. 136 et 320) et une petite correction (p. 513). Les pièces d'auteur aux dos portent "L'Ami des Francois". Deux papillons imprimés, collés l'un au verso du titre de "l'Alambic" ; l'un pour signaler que "le manuscrit de cet ouvrage a été enlevé beaucoup trop tôt à l'auteur" et regretter les trop nombreuses erreurs non corrigées. L'autre p. 551 pour annoncer d'autres titres du même auteur à paraître. Quelques petits trous en pied d'une reliure. Certains feuillets légèrement froissés. Autre provenance: Viscount Mersey Bignor Park (ex-libris imprimé) Bel exemplaire très bien relié en maroquin rouge à l'époque, imprimé sur beau papier vergé.

Ensemble relié en 2 volumes in-8, plein veau havane marbré, dos à 5 nerfs ornés de compartiments fleuronnés et cloisonnés, pièces de titre et de tomaison de maroquin, tranches rouges (reliure maçonnique de l'époque). Rare ensemble réunissant le premier écrit du "Philosophe Inconnu" et sa "Suite" dans une reliure maçonnique de l'époque. 1- Edition originale sous page de titre de remise en vente. Le premier livre de L.-C. de Saint-martin, qu’il rédigea alors qu’il suivait l'enseignement de Martinès de Pasqually. "L’auteur, indigné de lire, dans Boulanger, que les religions étaient nées de la frayeur causée par les catastrophes de la nature, composa ce livre pour montrer, dans la nature même de l'homme, la connaissance sensible d'une cause active et intelligente, véritable source des allégories, des mystères, des institutions et des lois" (Gence, ‘Notice biographique sur L.-C. de Saint-Martin’, 1824) Cette édition aurait été imprimée par Jean-André Périsse-Duluc, député du tiers état aux États généraux de 1789 pour Lyon. Franc-Maçon, il fit partie de la maçonnerie mystique lyonnaise. 2- Edition originale de cette "suite" apocryphe de l’ouvrage de Saint-Martin qui serait l'œuvre de Charles de Suze. Réaction au rationalisme des Lumières, l'oeuvre de Saint-Martin exerça une influence majeure sur la génération romantique. (Caillet, III, 9762 et 9770. Dorbon, 4308. Guaita, 931. Chateaurhin, ‘Bibliographie du martinisme’, p. 17). Bel exemplaire, frais, très bien relié à l’époque, grand de marges. L’exemplaire est conservé dans une reliure maçonnique comportant 2 fois trois étoiles placées symétriquement dans les pièces de tomaison, rappelées par deux fois trois grains placés dans les caissons.

[SAINT-SIMON (Claude Henri, comte de)]
Paroles d'un mort [Parabole de Saint-Simon].
In-8, broché, couverture imprimée, 11 p. Deuxième édition, publiée par Olinde Rodrigues, de la célèbre "Parabole" de Saint-Simon publiée initialement dans le périodique "L'Organisateur" en 1819. Saint-Simon imagine que la France perde subitement ses cinquante meilleurs représentants dans les arts, les sciences et l’industrie et oppose ce malheur irréparable à la perte, sans conséquence, de cinquante officiers de la Couronne, ministres, fonctionnaires, ecclésiastiques et propriétaires fonciers "qui vivent noblement". Il note, non sans malice, que le peuple en serait certes affligé parce que "ces hommes sont bons", mais qu’il n’en résulterait aucun mal pour l’État. "Cette 'parabole' du Comte de Saint-Simon pourrait être relue avec nos lunettes d'aujourd'hui si on veut bien faire l'effort de changer les mots et les vocables qui appartenaient à la société de Louis XVIII" (Vingtras, Club de Mediapart). (Mazzone, n°71, 8, p. 29. Walch-Gerits, 410). Petits accrocs de papiers à la couverture, sinon bon exemplaire. Rare.

In-12, demi-chagrin vert à coins moderne, dos à nerfs orné d'une fleuron doré, tranches mouchetées rouges, vi p., (1) f., 368 p. Journal de notes "prises au jour le jour". Intéressant témoignage sur la Commune, vue du côté Versaillais. "Et si ce Sarrepont-Hennebert cachait en fait Galliffet ? Classique ouvrage militaire qui débute par un court chapitre sur la capitale, toujours résistante aux lois.

Les 'pétroleurs' se joignent aux 'pétroleuses' pour former une 'armée de huit mille furies' !!! Enfin, pour couronner le tout, le 'talent de nos généraux…' est si évident que 'les Prussiens… ne nous refusent point des félicitations méritées'" (Le Quillec, 2291). (Del Bo, p.96). Bon exemplaire.

Publisher's brown buckram gilt; variously paginated with individual titles ranging from 2pp to 50pp. Tight and straight with scattered foxing to contents; Very Good. <br /> <br /> The Society issued bound collections of its tracts more or less annually compiling whichever titles were still in-print or on-hand as remainders. Contents of the annual volumes varied as remainders were depleted or titles went out of print or were withdrawn from circulation. As might be expected the earliest tracts were the first to go creating inevitable lacunae especially for the pre-1890 titles. <br /> <br /> This is the compilation for 1905 including nos. 1 to 120 but with the following thirty-three tracts not included: 2-4; 6 8-13; 15-18; 21; 25-26; 30; 33-36; 38-39; 43; 46; 52-53; 55; 60; 65-66; 77; 80; 87 present as a title page in Welsh only; 106.

Single sheet 9" x 24" folded to 9"x6" 10pp. Mild toning to margins; Very Good. <br /> <br /> Transcript of an extemporaneous speech delivered by Milwaukee's Socialist Mayor Daniel Hoan answering attacks against his administration's decision to issue city-backed bonds here called "scrip" rather than borrowing cash to address its outstanding budget deficit. The bonds were issued in six series between 1933 and 1938 and have been credited with saving the city from bakruptcy during the worst years of the Great Depression. Hoan 1881-1961 served as Milwaukee's mayor from 1916 to 1940 still the longest continuous Socialist administration in American history. This a rather uncommon remnant of Milwaukee's socialist past; not noted in commerce with ten catalogued examples in OCLC member institutions. unknown

It had little in common with prior utopian socialist ideas . Louis Blanc was more clearly observant of the large-scale and deep social and economic changes wrought by the industrial revolution and ferocious in his conclusions.Blanc almost single-handedly converted the republican leaders and the rebellious Parisian masses to the socialist cause" see Gonçalo Fonseca; "Louis Blanc" at History of Economic Thought; on-line resource.<br /> <br /> The essay originally appeared in Blanc's own Revue du Progres in 1840 and was expanded and reprinted regularly over the following decade; the current edition the ninth was the first to appear after the Revolutions of 1848. This version contains further revisions and additions including most importantly the oft-borrowed phrase "Produra selon ses facultés et consommera selon ses besoins" generally translated into English as "From each according to their abilities; to each according to their needs" – an expression popularized by Marx but widely attributed to Blanc in the current edition of this work see "Notes From the Editors" Monthly Review v.66 no.3 July-Aug 2014. KRESS C.7283 the 5th edition; GOLDSMITH 34460 and 36031. Au Bureau du Nouveau Monde unknown

[SOCIALISM - MASSACHUSETTS] HUGO, George B. and James F. CAREY
Socialism: "The Creed of Despair" :: Joint Debate in Faneuil Hall March 22 1909 between George B. Hugo President Employers' Association of Massachusetts Affirmative and James F. Carey State Secretary Socialist Party of Massachusetts Negative
Boston: George B. Hugo 1909. First Edition. Octavo 23cm. Publisher's green cloth boards lettered in black on front cover; 60 1pp. Ink presentation inscription from George B. Hugo to front endpaper dated 1913. Mild cover soil and spotting; still a tight well-preserved copy VG or better. Final page reprints the "Declaration of Principles of the Employers' Association of Massachusetts - Organized for Law and Order and Industrial Peace. Full transcript of the debate including occasional interjections from the audience. Since the volume was published at Mr. Hugo's expense we may assume he thought himself the victor; though he notes in his foreword that ".they the Socialists submitted their own copy for publication which being incorrect and slackly handled I refused to countenance.they nevertheless proceeded to publish it ignoring the law in question quite in accordance with established Socialistic tenets." We have never encountered the version published by the Socialist Party Club of Boston but we imagine that a side-by-side comparison of the two would prove instructive. George B. Hugo unknown
