Wanting the portrait. First edition - with the imprint of Amsterdam publisher Ledet to whom Voltaire had sent the manuscript - of this important work in which Voltaire introduced Newton in France and thereby ending the Cartesian era."Voltaires importence for the history of science lies particularly in his having composed a famous popularization of Newton Élemens de la Philosophie de Newton 1738 which also collaborating with his companion and mistress Émilie marquise de Chatelet on her translation of the Principia into French and more generally in his having referred with the lightness of touch that made him a serious critic of human condition his moral philosophy to what he took to be Newtonian and hence the correct account of physical reality."

This edition of the Voltaire's Complete Works notably includes the bulk of Voltaire’s previously unpublished correspondence. The Société littéraire typographique was a publishing house founded by Beaumarchais and Condorcet in order to publish a new complete edition of Voltaire's works. Based in Kehl in Baden to escape censorship it operated from 1780 to 1790 they aimed at creating a monumental posthumous edition seven years after Voltaire’s death. To achieve this Beaumarchais purchased the printing types of the great English typographer John Baskerville from his widow and acquired paper mills and presses including three paper mills in the Vosges.
