In-12 (164 x 96 mm), plein veau marbré de l'époque, dos à 5 nerfs orné de caissons fleuronnés et cloisonnés, pièce de titre de maroquin bordeaux, filet doré sur les coupes, tranches jaspées, xxiv, 423 p. Première édition française de 'Distinction of Ranks in Society' (1771), traduit par J.-B. Suard, le principal ouvrage de John Millar, qui ne sera réédité qu'une seule fois en français (en 1778). Une partie du tirage de la même édition porte le titre de 'Observations sur la distinction des rangs de la société'. Membre de l'école écossaise, élève puis protégé d’Adam Smith, Millar devint avocat et son enseignement à Glasgow remporta un succès considérable. L’ouvrage, qui défend la thèse que les lois fondamentales qui régissent les sociétés reposent sur des facteurs économiques et non politiques, est considéré de ce fait comme l’un des textes précurseurs du matérialisme historique prémarxiste. D'importantes pages plaident pour l'égalité entre les femmes et les hommes, pour l'abolition de l'esclavage, ou la nécessité d'améliorer les conditions de travail des plus défavorisés. Millar se prononce également en faveur de l'indépendance américaine et d'une large démocratisation du système politique français. Selon Jean Mondot ('Diderot-Raynal et les Lumières écossaises', In "Lumières", 2004, n°3, p. 57), "ce livre constitue la référence principale d'après laquelle Diderot-Raynal composeront leur histoire de l'esclavage". (Conlon, 'Siècle des Lumières', 73:1070. France littéraire, VI, 131. I.E.S.S., X, 348-349). Coins légèrement émoussés. Bel exemplaire, très frais, grand de marges, bien relié à l'époque, imprimé en partie sur papier bleuté.

1890rif. List1620Mostly New England: Various Photographers 1890. Cabinet cards measuring 6 ½ x 4 ¼ inches. Various settings showing the band members posed with their instruments including banjos violins trumpets drum and tubas. Varying wear but generally very good with some normal age-related fading. Very Good. Originally from Lawrenceville New York the Shepard Family Band toured throughout the Northeast in the 1880s and 1890s eventually settling in South Royalton Vermont. All members of the family were apparently musically inclined: “In addition to Minnie mother and matriarch Mary “Minnie” Shepard and her husband patriarch James Monroe Shepard all of the children were pressed into service. Daughter Laura Belle the ‘violiniste’ was getting better all the time under the instruction of a ‘competent master.’ Her fans “will be astonished at the improvement in style tone and expression.” It was said of little Lessie that ‘Among lady cornetists she has no equal.’ The darling little son of the family Master Burtie could not help but please for he was well-known to be ‘The youngest Tuba soloist in the world; only nine years of age; scarcely larger than the instrument he plays.’ He was also a ‘clever comedian singer and character artist.” The baby little Flossie “a sweet little miss of four summers’ was said to be a “wonderful mimic and impersonator…a veritable little fairy.’ Daughters Kittie and Georgia were also part of the troupe.” - Henry Sheldon Museum. A very nice collection. Various Photographers unknown
