Two rare editions of works by French humanist and classical scholar Marc-Antoine Muret 1526-1585. Widely celebrated for the elegance of his Latin prose style Muret first rose to prominence lecturing at the University of Rome having fled to Italy in 1554 after being condemned for sodomy and heresy. A highly competent textual critic he secured a favourable reputation throughout Europe primarily due to his Variae lectiones which contain annotations and expositions of many passages from ancient authors. His works were immensely successful being issued by a plethora of publisher's in innumerable editions across the Continent well in the eighteenth-century. Richard Heber 1773-1833 English landowner and bibliophile; a founding member of the Roxburghe Club Heber acquired books for his magnificent library which Dibdin estimated to have exceeded 100000 volumes by his death and dispersed over 216 days.

On the title page of Hau Kiou Choaan; or The Pleasing History 1761 Thomas Percy quotes from Jean-Baptiste Du Halde’s A Description of the Empire of China and of Chinese Tartary 1738: ‘There is no better means of instruction on China than letting China speak for herself’. It remains questionable whether by presenting an original piece of Chinese literature Percy has really let China ‘speak for herself’; it is reasonable to argue that Hau Kiou Choaan carries as much information about China as it does about Percy’s own perceptions of this country. Whether Percy’s works and views of China provoked louder criticism or higher praise his input into the studies of China was a positive one for it contributed to an increasingly vigorous debate that would increasingly perceive differences as a source of strength not weakness.

1786réf. 378066France 1786. 6pp plus integral blank. Folio. Modern boards. Provenance: Jay Snider booklabel. 6pp plus integral blank. Folio. An unpublished manuscript ode on the wonders of electricity written in 20 stanzas of decasyllabic 10-line units dizains. The author Marc-Antoine Lazare Malot was a lawyer and the King's prosecutor at Avallon in Burgundy and submitted this poem to l'Académie de Marseille on August 25 1786 for which he received a prize. The thirteenth stanza contains lines on Benjamin Franklin: Le Modeste Franklin s'arme contre l'orage Et va chercher la foudre en ses plus noirs foyers ; Il lui prescrit sa route ; et du sein du nuage Sans bruit la fait descendre et mourir à ses pieds. De cette même main qui termina la guerre Qui de la liberté dans un autre hémisphère Sur rappeller défendre et raffermir les droits Il impose silence au maître du tonnerre Il désarme les dieux du ciel et de la terre L'inclémence des airs la vengeance des rois. Roughly translated: The modest Franklin arms himself against the storm And goes to seek the lightning in its darkest lairs; He prescribes its path; and from the heart of the cloud Silently makes it descend and die at his feet. With that same hand that ended the war That in another hemisphere recalled defended And reasserted the rights of liberty He silences the master of the thunder He disarms the gods of sky and earth The inclemency of the skies the vengeance of kings. unknown
