1657rif. ABC_49981Cologne: Pierre de la Vallee = Amsterdam Lodewijk & Daniel Elzevier 1657. 19th-century blind-tooled black morocco with the title and author lettered in gold on the spine a double filet border on both boards blind-tooled board edges and turn-ins a red ribbon marker red sprinkled edges marbled endpapers. 12mo. With a woodcut vignette on the title page and several decorated woodcut initials in the text. 2 parts in 1 volume. First issue of the first definitive edition marking a pivotal moment in the works history: the first time the Pascal letters were gathered into a single volume with continuous pagination. Issued under the pseudonym Louis de Montalte and bearing the fictitious Cologne imprint of Pierre de la Vallée the work was in fact printed in Amsterdam by the Elzevier press. Although it is the second edition overall it offers for the first time a coherent and authorially revised text as Pascal himself oversaw revisions to the letters before publication refining their style and argument. It is consequently regarded as the authoritative edition. The 18th letter published after the printing had been completed was appended separately.Blaise Pascal 1623-1662 was a mathematician physicist and religious thinker. In the Provinciales he combines theological argument with a clear and carefully structured prose style. His treatment of complex doctrinal issues in an accessible and engaging manner contributed to the wide readership of the letters beyond strictly scholarly audiences. Few books capture the intellectual tension of 17th-century France as vividly as the Lettres provinciales. Conceived in the heat of the bitter dispute between Jansenists and Jesuits these 18 letters first appeared not as a book but as a series of anonymous pamphlets published between January 1656 and March 1657. At the time of the present works publication it was arguably the most widely read work in France and its blend of humour logic and rhetorical precision helped define what would become classical French style.The opening 398 pages contain the complete series of letters combining theological precision with devastating satire. Written in the guise of correspondence from Paris to a provincial friend they expose and ridicule the casuistical reasoning of Jesuit moral theology with a brilliance that ensured their immediate success. At once playful and incisive Pascals prose moves effortlessly between irony and indignation creating a new standard for French writing.The second part of the present work turns from satire to direct theological intervention. It contains the Avis de Messieurs les Curés de Paris attributed to Antoine Arnauld 1612-1694 a central figure of the Jansenist movement and a close ally of Pascal. This text anchors the work firmly within the doctrinal controversies of the time particularly the defence of Arnauld following his condemnation by the Sorbonne.With the later manuscript initials "C.E." on the title page. The boards and spine are somewhat rubbed. The work is slightly browned throughout with occasional mild foxing. Otherwise in good condition.l Berghman Stockholm 102; Brunet IV no. 890; PMM 140; STCN 853094535 9 copies; USTC 1841842 11 copies; VD17 23:329180S; Willems 1218.

1656rif. ST12177-11Paris or Leyden 1656-57; related material 1657-58. 235 x 165 mm. 9 1/4 x 6 1/2". With 16 of 18 letters lacking letters IV and XVIII as well as general title and "Advertisement" leaf. 17 of 19 individually issued parts including the "Refutation de la Réponse à la Douzième Lettre". The original parts bound up in pleasing modern tan crushed morocco blind-ruled border raised bands gilt titling new endpapers. PMM 140; Tchemerzine V 62-63. ◆Light brown stain to head margin of the last quarter of the leaves occasional faint browning or foxing elsewhere more conspicuous on final gathering minor worming in bottom margin of a few leaves otherwise a very good copy internally with nothing approaching a serious defect and in a pleasing unworn binding. In addition to related material normally not included this volume contains 17 of the rare original 19 separately issued letters or "Provinciales" by the French polymath Blaise Pascal 1623-62 a series characterized by PMM as "the first example of French prose as we know it today perfectly finished in form . . . on a subject of universal importance . . . and an expression of one of the finest intelligences of the seventeenth century." Prompted by the Jesuits' condemnation for heresy of Pascal's friend Antoine Arnauld the letters are "a magnificent sustained invective" PMM against the laxity and casuistry of his detractors and at the same time a defense of Jansenism that theological movement and faction within Catholicism that grew out of the writings of Dutch theologian Cornelius Jansen 1585-1638 and that emphasized many of the Calvinist tenets of faith human sinfulness lack of free will and the necessity of divine Grace. The additional material apparently collected from a variety of sources comprises letters Pascal wrote to parish priests seeking assistance with the controversy. There is also a copy of Noel de la Lane's "Recit de ce qui s'est Passé au Parlement au Sujet de la Bulle de Nostre S. Père le Pape Alexandre VII. contre les Censures de Sorbonne" ca. 1665. Pascal 1623-62 was a man of many attainments in several fields among them physics philosophy and mathematics. Above all he was a profound thinker a devout Christian and the creator of memorable prose. Written simply lucidly objectively and wittily the "Provinciales" represents a landmark in French literature an early expression of Enlightenment thinking. It was enormously successful dealt the Jesuits a fatal setback and influenced the prose of Voltaire and Rousseau. Not surprisingly the book was put on the Index and ordered to be burned. Originally printed clandestinely by various printers as separate publications at various times during 1656 and 1657 the series is bibliographically complicated but it is clear that our quarto format versions precede the duodecimo printing dated 1657 and obviously those editions with later dates. It is likely given the small parts we are missing that someone assembled the various letters found here as they were issued at the time. A complete set of these letters in first edition--which is rarely seen--would sell for a considerable amount of money. unknown

First Edition in Latin pseudonymously translated by Port-Royal moralist and theologian Pierre Nicole of the Lettres Provinciales the most important ethical work of Pascal and one of the great classics of French prose. Written in response to the Jesuit attacks on Jansenism which culminated in the condemnation by the Sorbonne at the end of 1655 of Antoine Arnauld the chief light of Port Royal the Lettres were originally issued clandestinely in a series of eighteen separate parts between January 23 1656 and January 15 1657. "Pascal’s counter-attack took the form of a brilliant exposure of the casuistical methods of argument employed by the Jesuits. It was at the time a magnificent sustained invective after which the Jesuits never recovered their former position in France it was largely responsible for the traditional bad name they still less deservedly bear and a noble defence of thought in religious faith. Pascal’s weapon was irony and the freshness with which the gravity of the subject contrasts with the lightness of the manner is an enduring triumph.
