1826réf. 664Paris: S.n. 1826. First edition. Published unbound. Untrimmed. In fine condition. First edition. Published unbound. 11 5 p. Comte de Noé’s 1777–1858 speech concerning the “Haiti Indemnity” at the Chamber of Peers on April 19 1826. After the successful slave rebellion of Saint-Domingue which culminated in the elimination of slavery and the founding of the Republic of Haiti it took more than twenty years until the French ruler King Charles X of France recognised the independence of the island in return of 150 million gold franc indemnity in April 1825. The sum was later reduced to 90 million in 1838. The issue of the indemnity appeared again in 2003 when the President of Haiti demanded France to pay back over 21 billion U.S. dollars the equivalent in today’s money of the 90 million gold francs however in 2004 the prime minister rescinded the reparations demand.

1650Acquaforte mm. 203x400. Si tratta di uno dei soggetti preferiti da Castiglione, l'entrata degli animali nell'Arca, la tecnica acquafortista raggiunge qui il massimo della raffinatezza. In questa composizione sviluppa il tema accennato nell'incisione : "Noè che fa entrare gli animali nell'Arca" (1630 ca.).

1831réf. 71210London: published by Black Young and Young foreign booksellers to the King 1831. First English edition used by Webster as a template for his 1841 octavo "reprinted by E. H. Barker Esq. of Thetford Norfolk from a copy communicated by the author and containing many manuscript corrections and additions: with an appendix by the editor"; 2 volumes 4to; 20th-century half green straight-grain morocco gilt-titled direct on gilt-paneled spines; title pages a bit foxed vertical crease on the title of volume II; otherwise a very good sound and clean copy preserving the terminal advertisement leaf in volume I. Early 20th-century ownership signature in pencil of Arno Clapham on the least leaf of each volume. One of the scarcest of the early editions of Webster. Of note is the inclusion of Joseph Worcester's "Synopsis of Words pronounced by different Orthoepists" extracted from the American edition of 1829 which was edited by Worcester and published prior to the rift that developed between the two lexicographers. As to the text of the lexicon itself Skeel notes that it "was reworked by the English editor and was not merely a reprinting" which is likely the reason Webster chose it as a model for his 1841 revision. Perhaps there is an article on the relationship between this English edition and the 1841 octavo but I'm not aware of one. Vancil p. 260; see Skeel 589 and 589A. published by Black, Young, and Young, foreign booksellers to the King unknown

A good sound copy in mid-19th-century half calf over marbled boards rubbed and scuffed top of one spine with small chip; good and sound. One of the scarcest of the early editions of Webster. Of note is the inclusion of Joseph Worcester's "Synopsis of Words pronounced by different Orthoepists" extracted from the American edition of 1829 which was edited by Worcester and published prior to the rift that developed between the two lexicographers.
