1789rif. 14145Dublin: P. Byrne 1789. FIRST IRISH EDITION. Contemporary calf spine and edges lightly worn; generally an excellent copy with a contemporary signature of Juliana Pratt dated 1843 on title. . First edition a variant of a two-volume work published in London with few copies located in America. We do not know the priority of this Irish edition. After a preliminary trip to Berlin in early 1786 Mirabeau was dispatched that July on a mission to the royal court of Prussia. Returning in January he published a full account in his Secret History of the Court of Berlin 1787. This account denounced the Prussian court as scandalous and corrupt described the King of Prussia as weak and overly emotional and labeled Prince Henry of Prussia brother of Frederick the Great and a guest of the French court as narrow-minded and incompetent. The resulting uproar was an extreme embarrassment for the French government which quickly censored the book but could not prevent its widespread notoriety. Mirabeau’s episode provided inspiration to many more radical publishers who came to regard him as a leader of the coming revolution. Even Thomas Jefferson who was serving as the United States Minister to France during this period wrote to Mirabeau complimenting his “writings and talents” and provided him with materials that Jefferson wanted Mirabeau to use in future publications.

1760rif. 83935No place: no printer 1760. First edition of a spirited and able attack upon the financial administration of France and especially upon the "fermiers généraux" whom Mirabeau regarded as parasites preying upon the vitals of the nation. The work highlights the problems and injustices of the French system of taxation and added fuel to the fire of the coming revolution. The king disapproved of the work; Mirabeau was imprisoned on 16 December 1760 but through the efforts of Madame de Pompadour and others was released on Christmas Eve under orders to leave Paris for his estate at Bignon. The work proposes a reorganization of financial administrative machinery the abolition of the "Fermes" a reduction in the taxation upon salt with the object of increasing the total yield and a special tax upon tobacco farms. The domaine the post and the mint were to be further sources of revenue. The author ranks as one of the earliest important writers on taxation. Higgs notes that the book is "of real importance in the history of financial theory" The Physiocrats p. 57. Quarto 257 x 192 mm. Additional engraved frontispiece portrait of the author. Contemporary sprinkled calf spine ruled and decorated gilt in compartments red morocco label sprinkled edges. Spine ends and corners skilfully repaired.

1760rif. 84111No place: no printer 1760 & 1761. OF REAL IMPORTANCE IN THE HISTORY OF FINANCIAL THEORY" - a BEAUTIFUL COPY First edition of both works pairing Mirabeau's Théorie de l'Impôt his spirited and able attack upon the financial administration of France especially the "fermiers généraux" whom Mirabeau regarded as parasites preying upon the vitals of the nation with Pesselier's counterattack notable for its terse affirmation of the characteristically Physiocratic doctrine that agriculture holds a privileged place in the economic system. Mirabeau's work highlights the problems and injustices of the French system of taxation and added fuel to the coming fire of the revolution. The king disapproved of the work; Mirabeau was imprisoned on 16 December 1760 but was released on Christmas Eve through the efforts of Madame de Pompadour and others under orders to leave Paris for his estate at Bignon. The work proposes a reorganization of financial administrative machinery the abolition of the "fermes" a reduction in the taxation upon salt with the object of increasing the total yield and a special tax upon tobacco farms. The domaine the post and the mint were to be further sources of revenue. Mirabeau ranks as one of the earliest important writers on taxation. Higgs notes that the book is "of real importance in the history of financial theory" The Physiocrats p. 57. Pesselier was one of the most forceful critics of the physiocrats. Of the products of the soil Pesselier here writes "Elles procurent un profit net et durable puisqu'elles sont à l'abri de l'imitation" "They provide a net and lasting profit since they are safe from imitation".

rif. 17358,sans lieu, ni éditeur 1791, xxviii-96 pp., 1 vol. in 8 br. sous couverture bleu d'attente de reliure de l'époque défraichie, avec quelques petits manques de papier . Ce texte, véritable manifeste de la souveraineté des peuples dans lequel est développé le contrat social, la liberté de la presse, la séparation du spirituel et du temporel et aussi le régicide est une traduction de morceaux politiques que Milton écrivit lorsqu'il était secrétaire de Cromwell. Barbier attribue ce texte signé Mirabeau à Jean-Baptiste Salaville qui était son employé pour l'élaboration de ses discours.
1761rif. 8143Chez Arktée [sic] & Merkus 10 x 16 Amsterdam 1761 Petit in-8, reliure plein veau raciné, dos lisse orné de fleurons et de filets dorés, tranches rouges, filet doré sur les coupes, gardes marbrées, [1] f. bl., VII-416-[2], [1] f. bl. Rare contrefaçon vraisemblablement de Rouen ou de Paris, sous les noms usurpés des deux célèbres libraires hollandais, du succès de librairie paru l'année précédente en 1760, par Victor de Riquetti, comte de Mirabeau père (1715-1789). Notons l'absence du "s" de Arkstée. L'ouvrage valut à ce dernier huit jours d'emprisonnement au donjon de Vincennes en décembre 1760. La critique du système fiscal est rude, tout comme la dénonciation des fermiers généraux et des "financiers". Bonne reliure avec un petit accroc à l'angle du plat supérieur, trace d'une galerie de vers en queue. Bon intérieur. Ex-libris manuscrit "Grivel" de l'époque sur la page de titre. Bon exemplaire.(Bbis6) PHOTOS NUMERIQUES DISPONIBLES PAR EMAIL SUR SIMPLE DEMANDE-DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPS MAY BE AVAILABLE ON REQUEST

1760rif. EIRéo[MI72Paris: 1760. 1760. 12mo. pp. vi 426 2. modern bds. Published the same year as the first edition in quarto format. Mirabeau's strong criticisms of French methods of finance and taxation in this work particularly his attacks on the tax-farmers led to his temporary imprisonment and banishment from Paris. "It is not as might be supposed a mere plea for the Impôt Unique. It proposes a reorganization of financial administrative machinery the abolition of the Fermes a reduction in taxation upon salt with the object of increasing the total yield and a special tax upon tobacco farms. The Domaine the post and the Mint were to be further sources of revenue. Many just and valuable remarks on taxation are scattered throughout the volume and entitle the author to rank as one of the earliest important writers on the subject." Palgrave Einaudi 3946.
