Staunton, Sir George.
Voyage dans l'intérieur de la Chine et en Tartarie, fait dans les années 1792, 1793 et 1794, par Lord Macartney, ambassadeur du roi d'Angleterre auprès de l'empereur de la Chine. Paris, F. Buisson, an 6 de la République (1798).
4 vols. 8vo. (4), VIII, 515, (1) pp. (4), 412 pp. (4), 399, (1) pp. (4), 326 pp. With frontispieces in each volume and 3 large folding engraved maps at the end of vol. 4. Contemporary tree calf, smooth spines gilt. Marbled endpapers. First French edition of Staunton's "Authentic Account of an Embassy to China, chiefly from the papers of Lord Macartney and Sir E. Gower", translated by Jean-Henri Castéra (1749-1838): the official account of the first English embassy to China under Macartney made by the secretary George Staunton, first published in London in 1797. "Great Britain was anxious to establish formal diplomatic relations with China and thus open the way for unimpeded trade relations. But the pall of Chinese reserve and self-sufficiency, which for centuries seldom admitted penetration, still hung over this empire and effectually resisted Lord Macartney’s arguments and gifts [...] His visit was not in vain, however, for it gave us a most interesting account of Chinese manners and customs at the close of the eighteenth century" (Cox I, 344). "The account of this famous embassy was prepared at government expense. Apart from its Chinese importance, it is of considerable interest, owing to the descriptions of the various places en route which were visited" (Hill). These places include Madeira, Tenerife, Rio de Janeiro, St Helena, Tristan da Cunha, Amsterdam Island, Java, Sumatra, Cochin-China, etc. The second French edition, published the following year, was to include two additional volumes. - Minor wear to joints and extremities. From the library of Jean R. Perrette with his bookplate on the pastedown. Corder (Sinica) IV, 2384. Cox I, 345. Quérard IX, 289. Cf. Hill, pp. 280f. (first edition).

STEDMAN John Gabriel BLAKE William & BARTOLOZZI Francesco
Narrative, of a five years' expedition, against the revolted negroes of Surinam, in Guiana, on the wild coast of South America
- J. Johnson & Th. Payne, London 1813, in-4 (20,5x26,5cm), xviii ; 423 pp. (4 p.) et (2 p.) iv ; 408 pp., 2 volumes reliés. - Narrative, of a five years' expedition, against the revolted negroes of Surinam, in Guiana, on the wild coast of South America J. Johnson & Th. Payne, London 1813, 4° (20,5x26,5cm), xviii; 423 pp. (4 p.) and (2 p.) iv; 408 pp., 2 volumes bound. Second edition, actually third. First published in 1796. Illustrated with 79 full-page plates and 3 folding maps. Sixteen prints engraved by William Blake after drawings by the author. Modern half roan, red and green morocco title and marbled endpapers. Light foxing to some pages, otherwise a good copy. The Anglo-Dutch officer Jean Gabriel Stedman (1744-1797) put down slave rebellions in Surinamen Dutch Guiana from 1772 to 1777. William Blake's impressive portraits of tortured slaves were widely distributed by the anti-slavery movement. Although in the service of the crown and therefore of the colonizers, Stedman was soon regarded as a prominent figure of the abolitionist movement. Publisher Joseph Johnson (1738-1809), one of the most important in the United Kingdom, became known for publishing the works of radical thinkers and dissidents such as Mary Wollstonecraft, Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Paine. As a member of the Society for Constitutional Information seeking to reform Parliament, he published numerous political works supporting the rights of slaves, Jewish people, women, prisoners, and other oppressed peoples around the world. [FRENCH VERSION FOLLOWS] "Seconde édition" en réalité troisième de cet ouvrage publié pour la première fois en 1796. Elle est illustrée de 79 planches hors-texte et 3 cartes dépliantes. Seize des estampes ont été gravées par William Blake d'après les dessins de Stedman. Reliure moderne en demi basane fauve à coins, dos à cinq faux nerfs sertis de doubles filets dorés, pièces de titre et de tomaisons de maroquin rouge et vert, plats de papier à la cuve. Quelques pages très légèrement roussies, sinon bel exemplaire. L'officier anglo-néerlandais Jean Gabriel Stedman (1744-1797) participa à la répression des révoltes d'esclaves au Surinam de 1772 à 1777. Les impressionnantes planches de William Blake décrivant les supplices infligés aux esclaves, furent reprises et largement diffusées par le courant anti-esclavagiste. Par ce témoignage Stedman, pourtant au service de la couronne royale et donc des colonisateurs, fut élevé au rang de héraut du mouvement abolitionniste. D'ailleurs, l'éditeur Joseph Johnson (1738-1809), l'un des plus importants du Royaume-Uni, était connu pour publier des travaux de penseurs radicaux et de dissidents tels que Mary Wollstonecraft, Benjamin Franklin et Thomas Paine. Membre de la Society for Constitutional Information, un groupe activiste visant à réformer le Parlement, il publia de nombreux ouvrages politiques soutenant les droits des esclaves, des juifs, des femmes, des prisonniers et d'autres peuples opprimés à travers le monde.

Ex Libri remnants of library bookplates to eps closed tear to title page. Page edges dusty wrinkling to pages map stained on edges. All complete. Good reading copy. Arctic Bib. 16774; Account of an expedition to colonize Wrangel Island 1921-3 directed by Stefansson. " Doctor Stefansson is a Canadian who has spent no less than ten winters in the Arctic. Wrangel Island lying within the Arctic Circle is clearly a British possession and to make the title secure Doctor Stefansson in 1921 landed a party of four men and one woman who were prepared to stay and by hunting maintain themselves for a period of two years. The little band met with disaster and on the arrival of the relief expedition in 1923 only one of the members the woman was alive. Wrangel Island is clearly inhabitable in spite of the ill luck which attended the expedition of 1921-3 the failure of this expedition was due to outside causes as Doctor Stefansson clearly shows. The book recounts from documents and diaries the actual life of the party on Wrangel Island so that the reader feels as if he were actually present with them and sharing their adventures. One of the most interesting and absorbing narratives of Arctic exploration it is also the work of an explorer who is a thinker and a man of vision." Ex Libris bookplate. Quantity Available: 1.
