Gouged hole in the center of the first 4 pages in vol. 1.Engraved portrait frontispiece of Raynal after C.N. Cochin by N. de Launay in Vol. I 9 engraved frontispiece plates after J.M. Moreau le Jeune by de Launay and othersIn 1770 Raynal published the first edition of his Histoire philosophique et politique. In this effort he had the assistance of various members of the philosophe côteries—indeed Denis Diderot is credited with a third of this work. The other chief collaborators were Pechméja Holbach Paulze the farmer-general of taxes the Abbé Martin and Alexandre Deleyre. Banned in 1772 a new edition was published by Raynal in 1774 which was immediately placed on the index of banned books by the Roman Catholic church. The present edition appeared in 1780 and was more violently radical then any of the previous editions. Some of the ideas that Raynal was advocating were enough to ensure that a warrant for his arrest was issued and the book was condemned by the Parlement de Paris and burnt by the public executioner. Raynal escaped into exile and did not return until 1784. Despite the radical anti-colonialism tone of this work Raynal came to realize the impossibility of the peaceful revolution that he had advocated.Cohen/de Ricci 854; Phillips 652 atlas; Sabin 68081.not in OCLC.10 vol. in-8basane havane mouchetée époque dos à nerfs caissons ornés accidents et défautsd'usage aux reliures trous aux trois premiers feuillets du T. 1 rousseurs.Illustré d'un portrait de l'auteur gravé par De Launay d'après Cochin et de 9 planchesgravées d'après Moreau le jeune.
