Half calf 13.5 cm Condition: Boards and corners somewhat scuffed. Some slight foxing Note: The French historian philosopher and orientalist Constantin François de Chassebuf de Volney 1757-1820 is one of the founding fathers of the Black Athena theory. After a trip to the Middle East in 1782 he suggested that the ancient Egyptians were originally black Africans and that the Egyptians of his time were mulats with mixed blood. 'Les anciens Égyptiens étaient de vrais Nègres de l'espèce de tous les naturels d'Afrique; et dès-lors on explique comment leur sang allié depuis plusieurs siècles à celui des Romains et des Grecs a dû perdre l'intensité de sa première couleur en conservant cependant l'empreinte de son moule originel .; de penser que cette race d'hommes noirs aujourd'hui notre esclave et l'objet de nos mépris est celle-là même à qui nous devons nos arts nos sciences et jusqu'à l'usage de la parole'. Voyage en Syrie et en Égypte pendant les années 1783 1784 & 1785 Paris 1785 p. 75/6 § In 1791 Volney published his 'Les Ruines ou méditations sur les révolutions des empires' an essay on the philosophy of history. 'L'auteur se met en scène sur les ruines de Palmyre; et là il se livre à de profondes méditations sur la destruction de tant d'empires à qui leur puissance colossale semblait promettre une éternelle durée et qui n'en ont pas moins obéi à cette loi de la nature qui veut que tout périsse. Dans ce même ouvrage Volney établit la nécessité de la tolérance religieuse reconnue aujourd'hui par tous les esprits éclairés. . Les Ruines n'en passent pas moins pour une des productions les plus remarquables de la littérature de la fin du XVIIIe siècle'. Wikipédia s.v. Volney Some of the central ideas in Les Ruines stirred the imagination of its readers. It predicted the final union of all religions by the recognition of the common truth underlying them all and stated that empires rise if government allows enlightened self-interest to flourish Photographs on request hardcover

réf. 68243s.l. 1789. 23 pages. 195x125 Cm. Dérelié. En tant que représentant de la sénéchaussée d'Anjou aux Etats-Généraux et membre de l'Assemblée Constituante Volney joua un certain rôle pendant la Révolution Française "comme défenseur résolu des libertés publiques et comme adversaire non moins résolu du clergé et en général de tous les cultes". Dans ce texte adressé aux habitants des campagnes et signé par "les Bourgeois associés pour la défense du droit du Peuple et l'instruction des Paysans" Volney conteste la hiérarchie des classes sociales et réclame notamment une refonte complète du système d'imposition avec la suppression de certaines taxes gabelle aides octrois corvées tailles et une nouvelle constitution. "Volney représente conjugués l'amour du progrès et l'attachement paysan à la terre avec une gravité constante et une sensibilité réelle mais mesurée. D'un courage entier pendant la Révolution et face à Napoléon qu'il aida d'abord il fut toujours partisan du silence philosophique devant toutes les folies individuelles ou collectives" Encyclopedia Universalis.

Black morocco label with gilt title. = Virtually unknown edition of an interesting work in relation to the growth of scientific and historical knowledge by the French philosopher orientalist and historian Constantin François de Chassebuf Comte de Volney 1757-1820 first published in French in 1808 as Recherches nouvelles sur l'histoire ancienne. A first English edition was published in 1819 by Simpkin Marshall in London; this edition however is not dated and is widely different. Its publication is announced in Cobbett's Political Register volume 586 on 6 May 1826. Thomas Davison was a printer of radical works between 1819-1830 and served two years in prison for blasphemous libel. The work deals with various philosophers mythology culture etc. but mainly with Middle Eastern people and persons in particular those of historical importance for instance Moses Herodotus Flavius Josephus etc. Former owners autograph on front flyleaf otherwise a very good clean copy in a nice contemporary-style binding. Apart from the above publication announcement and one doubtful listing in OCLC with an 1830 date we found no records of this edition. hardcover
