Third edition revised with additional essay; 8vo 20.5 x 13.5 cm; publisher's device to title old piece in pen to front pastedown front free endpaper excised occasional light spotting; contemporary calf spine in 6 gilt banded compartments contrasting red morocco lettering-piece covers a little soiled and abraded with slight loss joints and corners a little rubbed small nick to spine head-cap a very good unrestored example; 8 478pp. The scarce third edition of Adam Smith's first published book which laid the seedbed for his Wealth of Nations. Smith devoted the years from 1755 to 1759 to writing and publishing The Theory of Moral Sentiments having been appointed Professor of Logic at the University of Glasgow in 1751 and elected Professor of Moral Philosophy a year later. It was this period at Glasgow which Smith was later to describe as 'the period of thirteen years which I spent as a member of that society I remember as by far the most useful and therefore as by far the happiest and most honourable period of my life'. First published in 1759 the book immediately established Smith's reputation as a serious scholar worthy of international acclaim. The most significant change to take effect in this the third edition was the inclusion for the first time of Smith's essay on the origin of languages titled in full 'Considerations concerning the first formation of Languages and the different genius of original and compounded Languages' which had previously been published in The Philological Miscellany in 1761. Other minor revisions were made to the passages involving comment on religion. ESTC T122844; Rothschild 1895; Mizuta 4. London, Printed for A. Millar, A. Kincaid and J.

The portrait of Smith is after the Tassie medallion of 1787 which is described by John M. Gray as follows: 'The head which appears turned in pure profile to the right of the spectator shows a particularly full forehead a full nose slightly aquiline in its curve; a long thin upper lip and a lower lip that protudes a little; and a firm well-shaped chin and jaw. The eyebrow is strongly curved the upper eyelid heavy and drooping the eyeball particularly prominent; and beneath the lower eyelid the skin is loose and wrinkled. A wig is worn tied behind in a bag with ribbons showing small curls in front and two large curls at the side which cover and conceal the ear' quoted in Bonar A Catalogue of the library of Adam Smith 1932 p. xxi. The reverse of the penny entitled 'Wealth of Nations' depicts the various elements of commerce; in the foreground of a harbour scene are a plough and a spinning wheel along with other symbols of agriculture and industry in addition to which there are a wool-pack and a barrel standing on the quayside with two three-masted ships sailing out of the harbour. Penny token cast in bronze 35 mm in diameter with portrait of Adam Smith after Tassie on the obverse and scene entitled 'Wealth of Nations' depicting various elements of commerce on the reverse.
