1748ref. H4EC6J1929WLParis 1748. 12mo. printed for the widow of Estienne & her children and the Estienne brothers by the widow of F.A. Quillau and the widow of Simon Contemporary mottled calf richly gold-tooled spines and binding edges marbled edges; only volume 11 bound as 2 volumes with slightly different tooling mottling and title-labels; all unobtrusive differences making a closely matching set. With 3 engraved maps 2 engraved folding plates and 1 engraved folding plan. 13 volumes bound as 14. ca. 600 pp. per volume Lovely set in the original French of Rollin's very popular Histoire ancienne which contrary to its full title primarily describes ancient Greece the other ancient peoples are only treated in the first two volumes. It's a mixed set from three editions published by the Estienne family in nice closely matching bindings. After the first volume appeared in 1730 the series grew well beyond its initially planned five volumes and became tremendously popular appearing in numerous editions and translations well into the 19th century. Rollin organised a narrative closely based on a wide variety of ancient sources. While this copying was heavily criticized Rollin also distinguished himself with his concern for moral issues. "The prominent lens through which Rollin viewed history was that of virtue corrupted by power and this was the main approach that he tested in his Greek history. In the process moreover he carved and unprecedented space for Greek antiquity" Lianeri.The set is in very good condition with a few leaves browned and a few minor spots and stains. The binding only have some minor wear along the extremities and are also in very good condition.l Brunet IV col. 1360; Graesse VI p. 151; cf. A.

One of 40 copies folio size 68 pp. signed by Rollin Milroy Claudia Cohen and Barbara Hodgson with accompanying letter and booklet. Rollin Milroy has earned an enthusiastic and devoted following through his attention to detail and exquisite letterpress printing. This checklist is itself a work of art replete with tipped-in specimens. Although as Milroy wrote in a letter announcing the book the book is "Heavenly Monkey's next / sort-of-last publication." He would issue two years later "The Lady or the Tiger bound tête-bêche with The Discourager of Hesitancy" also under the "HM" imprint. Issued in an edition of only forty copies the first ten containing extra specimens in a box. Again we cannot help but quote from the same letter: "I do not call these deluxe they simply are extra. I do not recommend them to anyone who actually owns HM books. My best hope is that the extras might prove useful to institutions in some educational or cautionary context." Accompanying the book is the aforementioned letter as well as a separate "sort-of announcement" which replicates some of the pages in the book along with a selection of cuts. ___DESCRIPTION: Parchment paper back lettered in black with painted paper over boards Ingres endpapers frontis a cut of a print shop with a monkey-headed character in center stage title page in black and brown the calligraphy by Martin Jackson the Contents page lists the books published by Milroy under both the "Heavenly Monkey" imprint as well as "HM Editions" the Dramatis Personae page lists those who have been involved in the enterprise marginalia throughout in Milroy's hand some of which are printed and some manuscript; folio size the binding 12 1/8" by 8 1/2" pagination: 1-4 5-66 1 colophon 1 press mark with an additional speciman tipped onto the rear flyleaf; total edition 40 copies this no. 19 the colophon signed by Claudia Cohen Barbara Hodgson and Rollin Milroy. ___CONDITION: Fine we acquired it directly from the publisher; it remains clean crisp and as new. ___CITATION: This Monkey's Gone to Heaven no.

Bound in contemporary French mottled calf five raised bands on spine red morocco lettering pieces in the second and third compartments edges stained red marbled pastedowns and endpapers. Some lower fore-corners bumped and scraped headcap of vol. 4 chipped overall in EXCELLENT CONDITION. BEAUTIFUL COPY OF ROLLIN'S IMPORTANT WORK ON THE TEACHING AND STUDY OF "BELLE LETTRES" A CLASSIC OF 18TH-CENTURY PEDAGOGY PRINTED BY MARIE-ANNE GUYARD ESTIENNE WIDOW OF JACQUES ESTIENNE THE ELDER. SHE ACHIEVED GREAT SUCCESS IN LATER YEARS THROUGH HER INDUSTRY AND BUSINESS ACUMEN. Marie-Anne Guyard a.k.a. Guiard was the daughter of a wine-merchant. In 1714 after the death of her first husband Charles-Francois Pochard metal merchant she married the successful printer-publisher Jacques Estienne. Upon his death in 1731 she continued the press and publishing operations located on the rue Saint-Jacques "a la Vertu". The present 4-volume set of Rollin's teaching and study guide was followed two years later by a 16-volume set of Rollin's "Histoire romaine" 1738-1748. From 1743 onward she worked in partnership with her eldest son Jacques the Younger to whom she sold 1/3 of the business for 110000 livres according to IRHT -- a colossal sum in those days. They were joined in 1750 by her second son Robert to whom she also sold 1/3 of the business for the same amount. According to a contemporary report by 1752 she was "a very rich woman for whom M. Rollin made a fortune on account of all the works of his that she printed. Abbe Antoine Pluche also contributed. She has just bequeathed and sold her business to her son and to Bauche's son." Marie-Anne Estienne died on May 13 1753 leaving her children a large estate. As stated above her two sons became printer-publishers; two of her four daughters married printer-publishers one married a bourgeois merchant and one married Daniel Coffin conseiller du Roi. Included herein are two priced lists of "Livres nouvellement imprimes" by her the first in vol. I 5 pages the second in vol. IV 2 pages and we learn that the published price of the present edition -- unbound -- was 10 livres. OUR SET IS IN MUSEUM QUALITY CONDITION AND IS SUITABLE FOR EXHIBITION AND STUDY.
