1801réf. 90455Paris: Sans nom d'éditeur 1801. Fine. Sans nom d'éditeur Paris s. d. 1801 19.3 x 25 cm Relié Rare group of six fascicules all in the original edition.Bradel-style binding in green mottled boards smooth unlettered spine printed title label mounted at the centre of the upper cover; modern binding.Not recorded by Polak. Apparently no copy located in the CCFr.A stain at the head of the title page.This curious compilation bearing almost no identifying information appears to be particularly rare.It contains:- 1. A notice to mariners concerning the change in the lighting of the lighthouse in the Bay of the Somme scheduled for 25 Pluviôse Year IX 14 February 1801.- 2. An instruction on filters for purifying water signed by the health officers Dubrueil Thaumur Dupré and Billard.- 3. A notice on naval provisions signed by Rivoire.- 4. A description of the sillomètre an instrument for measuring longitude at sea addressed to the editor of the Moniteur by the former journalist Charles Mozard 17551810 who had served as Commissioner of Frances commercial relations in Boston from 1794 to 1799 and was at that time among the contributors to the Moniteur.- 5. A discourse by Bernardin de Saint-Pierre delivered at the Institut Nautical experiments and dietary and moral observations proposed for the benefit and health of sailors on long-distance voyages. This contribution had already been printed in La Décade philosophique littéraire et politique of 30 Vendémiaire Year IX 22 October 1800.- 6. Two practical notices on means of preserving ships from fire water and rats. The nature of these texts and their immediate sources suggest that this publication was probably conceived as a trial maritime periodical intended to make available sea-related articles previously published in other journals. For reasons unknown the experiment was not continued a circumstance that is fairly common in the history of periodicals. Sans nom d'éditeur hardcover

1818réf. 86072Paris: Méquignon - Marvis 1818. Fine. First Collected Edition of Bernardin de Saint-Pierre in 12 Untrimmed Volumes Méquignon - Marvis Paris 1818 14 x 21.50 cm 12 volumes reliés First collected edition partly first edition of the works of Bernardin de Saint-Pierre published in Paris by Méquignon-Marvis in 1818 four years after the authors death. Twelve octavo volumes printed by L.-T. Cellot. The illustration comprises a frontispiece portrait of Bernardin drawn by Girodet-Trioson and engraved by Frédéric Lignon together with 26 hors-texte plates after Girodet Desenne Lafitte Moreau le Jeune Prudhon Vernet and Isabey; these include a folding map of the Atlantic hemisphere and several botanical plates. As is often the case with this edition the engravings have been bound in a somewhat irregular order several suites having their own numbering; the set is nevertheless complete. Contemporary Bradel-style bindings in red half Russia leather smooth spines ruled in gilt boards covered with paper imitating Russia leather green paper endleaves. Untrimmed. Scattered foxing and some soiling to a few boards. A handsome uniformly bound set the bindings well preserved. By 1818 Bernardin de Saint-Pierre was already far more than simply the author of Paul and Virginia: around the novel that had made his reputation were now gathered his travel writings the Études de la nature the Harmonies political texts essays fragments and several works that had remained in manuscript. Across twelve volumes Aimé-Martin thus presented an oeuvre far broader than the one preserved in the public imagination by the success of the novel. Paul and Virginia nevertheless remains at the heart of the collection. Aimé-Martin follows la belle édition in-4° publiée par lauteur en 1806 while reusing several compositions originally devised for the illustrated editions of 1789 and 1806. Around this already celebrated text however he adds the Harmonies de la nature first published posthumously in 1815 together with a body of manuscript material brought into this large collected edition for the first time. At the beginning of the final volume Bernardin returns to one of the decisive encounters of his life: Au mois de juin de 1772 un ami mayant proposé de me mener chez J.-J. Rousseau il me conduisit dans une maison rue Plâtrière. The Essai sur J.-J. Rousseau thus opens a sequence in which education Socrates the Jardin des Plantes and several of Bernardins scientific projects soon follow; as the volume progresses the author of Paul and Virginia gives way to a much broader figure - moralist traveller observer of nature and man of projects. These twelve volumes thus bring Bernardin de Saint-Pierre out from the shadow of his own masterpiece: around Paul and Virginia finally unfold the voyages nature Rousseau the manuscripts and projects of a writer whom the nineteenth century could now read in the full breadth of his work.
