1787réf. 91319Paris: Veuve Ballard 1787. Fine. Veuve Ballard Paris 1787 19.6 x 25.5 cm Relié Complete year for 1787 with 50 issues of this health journal with continuous pagination pagination error between nos. 48 and 49. Contemporary half marbled sheep smooth spine bronze sheep lettering-piece rubbing to the spine domino-patterned paper boards a few scuffs to the boards corners worn and small nicks to the edges red edges contemporary binding. The journal founded in 1773 by Jean-Jacques Gardane doctor-regent of the Faculty of Medicine of Paris would run for 17 years with one volume per year except for the years 1773-1774. Jean-Jacques Gardane distinguished himself in the establishment in Paris of treatment houses for the poor and in the diffusion of fumigation boxes intended to revive the drowned and the asphyxiated of all kinds. From 1776 onwards the journal would be written by a society of physicians and Pinel was probably among the new editors from the end of 1784. The journal then played an important bibliographical role; scientific news was carefully reported but the periodical is especially notable at this stage for its declared fight against charlatanism and the section devoted to hygiene is particularly well represented; it is not impossible that it was written by Pinel himself see Roselyne Rey in Dictionnaire des journaux. Manuscript annotations in black ink on the verso of the front board. Veuve Ballard hardcover
1684réf. 57732à Paris: Chez Etienne Michalet 1684. Fine. Chez Etienne Michalet à Paris 1684 9 x 16 cm relié Rare first edition illustrated with several diagrams in the text and 3 plates of leveling instruments invented by Picard for the leveling of the château de Versailles. Edition produced by Philippe de la Hire after Jean Picard's death and from manuscripts found at his residence. Contemporary full speckled brown sheep binding. Decorated spine with raised bands. Brown calf title label. 3 corners slightly bumped. Rubbing. Good copy. The work is divided into distinct chapters the first being a theory of leveling in relation to the earth's surface those that follow being an application of this theory and practical examples of leveling. One finds there for example the way to bring water to Versailles through measurements despite differences in terrain. The last part concerns the measurement of the earth. Picard had been charged by the Académie des sciences to measure one degree of meridian. The result found by Picard was the most accurate found at that time and allowed science and notably Newton to pursue his work on universal gravitation whereas he had been hindered by imprecise and faulty measurements.

1980réf. 86791s. l.: S. n. 1980. Fine. S. n. s. l. s. d. ca 1980 14.50 x 21 cm 1 page Manuscript note with corrections by Philippe Soupault 22 lines in purple ink on a sheet bearing at the top this inscription: ""p.14 bis"" recalling the creation on May 18 1917 at the Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris of the famous ballet Parade by Sergei Diaghilev's Ballets Russes on a text by Jean Cocteau music by Erik Satie and scenography by Pablo Picasso. This work being inspired by Georges Seurat's painting Circus Sideshow. The co-author with André Breton of the surrealist manifesto ""Les champs magnétiques"" relegates the ballet to the rank of distraction for rear-guard shirkers completely unconscious of the historical stakes of the moment: ""C'était l'année de la bataille de Verdun le Tout-Paris les snobs et les embusqués parlaient d'un ballet ""russe"" intitulé Parade 1 dont Erik Satie disait : ""Picasso a créé les décors et les costumes et j'ai composé la musique et Cocteau a écrit trois lignes. Et Parade est de Cocteau."""" It was the year of the Battle of Verdun all of Paris the snobs and draft dodgers were talking about a ""Russian"" ballet titled Parade 1 of which Erik Satie said: ""Picasso created the sets and costumes and I composed the music and Cocteau wrote three lines. And Parade is by Cocteau."". Philippe Soupault is outraged by such indifference to the fate of the valorous Poilus in the trenches: ""Tandis qu'on applaudissait Parade j'entendais mes voisins revivre leurs cauchemars. On annonçait dans les communiqués des ""duels d'artillerie"". Plus de trois cents mille morts de chaque côté. Comment comme je le fis ne pas se révolter Le souvenir de cette révolte surgit en moi en prononçant le nom de Cocteau."" While they were applauding Parade I heard my neighbors reliving their nightmares. The communiqués announced ""artillery duels"". More than three hundred thousand dead on each side. How as I did not to revolt The memory of this revolt surges in me upon pronouncing Cocteau's name. Fascinating and acerbic memories from the last living historical surrealist concerning the revolutionary ballet ""Parade"" likening it to a preoccupation of idle bourgeois neglecting the hecatombs of the Great War.

Recent bookplate of John Fowles to FEP slight loss to lower corner of leaf I4. The first edition of a contemporary account of the Haitian Revolution from the perspective of the defeated French colonists. The insurrection began in 1791 with the enslaved people of Saint-Domingue now Haiti rising against French colonial rule. The revolt ended in 1804 with the Haitian people gaining independence from France thereby becoming the first country to be founded by those formerly enslaved. The book is primarily a defence of French actions during the conflict and in particular the conduct of military commander Donatien-Marie-Joseph de Vimeur vicomte de Rochambeau 1755- 1813. In 1801 Rochambeau was appointed to lead an expeditionary force against Saint- Domingue in an effort to restore French control. He proceeded to wage a war of extermination massacring thousands. His brutal tactics served only to galvanise the rebels and he was ultimately defeated in November 1803. John Fowles 1926-2005 English novelist notable works include The Magus 1965 and The French Lieutenant's Woman 1969. . First edition. 8vo. Chez Locard et al. unknown

1770réf. 159238Paris: Chez l'Auteur sur le Quay de l'Horloge 1770. Updated edition of 1714 map. Near fine. 52 x 69 cm hand-coloured map. Centrefold. Bottom corner chipped. An updated edition of Delisle's important map of the Northern Hemisphere. When first printed in 1714 Delisle's map was the first to correctly place the west coast of North America by moving it farther east from previous mapping. California is correctly shown as a peninsula not an island. However this edition continues the coastline of the Pacific Northwest with a large island labeled Foufang that is apparently Chinese and serves as the western boundary of a large Mer de l'Ouest. Other conjectural rivers and lakes including Lake Valasco appear to the north. A rudimentary Alaska is named Presqu'Isle du Nord-Ouest. Bauche improved upon the depiction of Japan although Hokkaido Isle du Jeso is still not shaped correctly. Only a small remnant of the Terre de la Compagnie appears near Hokkaido. Delisle or de l'Isle 1675-1726 was the son of a cartographer and a pupil of Jean Dominique Cassini who among other important contributions aligned the study of astronomy to the study of geography. Under Cassini's direction observations were made from locations all over the world that enabled longitudinal calculations to be made with much greater accuracy. Delisle continued his work with dedication constantly revising and improving his maps. Chez l'Auteur sur le Quay de l'Horloge unknown
réf. 469852Unbound. Fine. Gelatin silver photograph. Measuring approximately 11" x 14". Photographer's rubberstamp on verso: "Copyright by Philippe Halsman" and neat pencil notation in an unknown hand: "1958 / Marian Anderson." Three-quarter length portrait of Anderson dressed in an ornate embroidered brocade jacket standing and facing the camera with her eyes closed and mouth open in song. A fine copy with the image bright and crisp. From the 1940s through the 1970s Halsman's portraits of international figures appeared on the covers of widely circulated magazines such as Look The Saturday Evening Post and Life which published approximately 100 covers by Halsman. The National Portrait Gallery organized the first full exhibition of the photographer's work "Philippe Halsman: A Retrospective" which toured in 2000.
