réf. 37691J. Murray. 1827. First Edition 4to xxxvi 227 1pp. 22 lithograph plates Malthus essay running from page 171-180; orig. boards covers detached lacks spine uncut unopened internally a nice clean copy. Malthus's first essay to the Royal Society of Literature in which he explains his theory of the source or cause of exchangeable value. As Patricia James in her biography of Malthus explains 'Anyone wishing to understand Malthus's doctrine that the of a commodity is composed of labour and profit these short essays can be recommended for their comparative simplicity. As is often the case enlightenment comes from a footnote - in this instance at the beginning of the first paper with Malthus's italics:- "The natural and necessary conditions of the supply of commodities are precisely the same as the natural and necessary costs of production when reduced to the simplest elements; but I have preferred the former expression because the term cost if not well guarded is too apt to convey the idea of Money expenditure."' The second paper On the Meaning which is most usually and most correctly attached to the term 'Value of a Commodity' was read two years later on the 7th November 1827. J. Murray. 1827 hardcover
1829réf. 147796London: J. Murray 1829. First appearance in print of these two papers by Malthus on the subject of value as contained in parts I pp. 171-180 and II pp. 74-81 of the first volume of the Transactions of the Royal Society of Literature here bound together. The papers were read before the society by Malthus in May 1825 and November 1827. In the first paper Malthus argues that "the natural and necessary conditions of the supply of all commodities not subject to a monopoly are represented and measured by the labour which they will ordinarily and on an average command and that no other object whatever can be substituted for labour or can represent and measure the natural and necessary conditions of the supply of commodities" p. 171. It was essentially a repetition of the arguments in Malthus's Measure of Value 1823. The second paper's aim was to show that when the term "value of a commodity" is used without referring to some other commodity in which it is to be estimated the term is "generally understood to refer and can only refer correctly to the conditions of its supply or the natural and necessary costs of its production" p. 74. The paper appears to have been intended as a development of the themes treated in his Definitions in Political Economy published earlier in 1827. 2 works bound in 1 vol. quarto 275 x 211 mm. With 21 plates of which 2 folding in first part; 7 plates of which 2 folding in second part. Twentieth-century blue quarter calf spine lettered gilt blue mottled sides marbled endpapers. With the book label to the front pastedown of the Ducs de Luynes at the Château de Dampierre. Residue from label removal at the foot of spine peripheral rubbing skilfully retouched contents clean and crisp. A very good copy. unknown
