In-12, broché, couverture de papier d'attente, 282, (5) p. de tables. Edition originale de ces essais moraux d'inspiration épicurienne, sous forme épistolaire: les femmes, l'amour et le mariage, la coquetterie, l'astrologie, la jalousie, les héroïnes d'opéra, l'amitié et l'amour, etc. Originale de Troyes, Toussaint Rémond de Saint-Mard (1682-1757) était le frère du mathématicien Rémond de Montmort. Critique de Fontenelle dont pourtant il imitait le style, comme lui épicurien et irréligieux, son modernisme lui attira les attaques de Desfontaines, de Fréron, mais le soutien de l’abbé Gédoyn. Selon Weller (II, p. 86), l'adresse serait fictive et l'ouvrage aurait été imprimé à La Haye par Scheurleer. (Conlon, 'Siècle des Lumières', 21.641. Gay, III, 839) Quelques auréoles claires au titre. Ex. légèrement bruni. Bon exemplaire.

Ihre Zugehörigkeit zur Gattung der als authentischer Reisebericht ausgegebenen Reiseutopie und die Bezüge ihrer Rahmenhandlung auf aktuelle Ereignisse des vorangegangenen Jahrzehnts lassen erkennen, daß dieses Werk für das zeitgenössische Publikum bestimmt war. Doch Fontenelle hat seine Utopie nicht veröffentlicht, sie erschien erst im Jahre 1768 mit dem veränderten Titel: "La Republique des philosophes ou Histoire des Ajaoiens". Das Manuskript von der Hand Fontenelles wurde 1898 bei einer Bibliotheksversteigerung verkauft und ist seither verschollen. Fehler und Unstimmigkeiten im Text der Ausgabe von 1768 zeigen, daß Fontenelle keine abschließend bearbeitete Textfassung hinterlassen hat. … (Vorwort) ISBN 9783533031796353

A very clean and tight copy. Fine. FIRST EDITION of an extensive treatise on the principles of calculus by Bernard Fontenelle the distinguished French philosopher and scientist who is famous for his book on the plurality of worlds. Through his friend Varignon Fontenelle made the acquaintance of the Parisian scientific circle and became friends with Nicolas de Malezieu and l'Hopital. Fontenelle wrote the preface to l'Hopital's Analyse des infiniment petits pour l'intelligence des lignes courbes 11690. "In it he displayed his interest in the notion of infinity and his talent as a historian; in a few pages he retraces the history of the mathematical study of curved lines from Archimedes to Newton and Leibniz . . . In 1727 he published his Elements de la geometrie de l'infini which he had worked on for a long time probably since the period of his preface to the Analyse des infiniment petits . . . According to Fontenelle none of the geometers who had invented or employed the calculus of infinity had given a general theory to it; that is what he proposed to do. The work is divided into a preface relating to the history of this branch of calculus and into two main part . . . 'the infinite series or in progression of numbers' and then examines 'the infinite in straight and curved lines . . . " DSB. / Bernard Fontenelle was born at Rouen and pursued a literary career. Fontenelle dabbled in poetry and writing for the stage but it is better known for his work as secretary to the Academy of Sciences. Among his published works are Entretiens sur la pluralite des mondes 1686 the Histoire du renouvellement de l'Academie des Sciences 1708-1722 and a number of eloges of the members.
