1760réf. 2354175Avignon: Pierre Mortier 1760. Full-Leather. Near Fine/No Jacket. Twentieth century full leather binding. Edges faded but otherwise an excellent copy. Binding tight and square pages clean and unmarked with no toning or foxing. 1760 Full-Leather. 44 pp. 12mo. A12 B10. Navy blue leather gilt titles gilt dentelles on turn-ins marbled endpapers ribbon marker bound in. French text. This work by Frederick II the King of Prussia also known as Frederick the Great presents his political philosophy including thoughts on morality social structure and individuals/citizens and their role in the health of nations. It is perhaps most important for the response it elicited from Voltaire who wrote a satirical letter in response in which he ironically praised the ruler for his ability to simultaneously applaud the humble virtues of the everyman represented here as a cobbler while sending many such men to their deaths in military campaigns specifically the Seven Years War. While Voltaire mocked this particular effort the two corresponded regularly and Voltaire even called Frederick a 'philosopher king.' Frederick published other political works as well including a rebuttal to Machiavelli's The Prince. Pierre Mortier hardcover books

A remarkably rare survival of the first edition in English of Lettre sur l’education 1760 the declaration of Frederick II King of Prussia 1712-1785 announcing his desires regarding educational reform. Soon after the original Continental publication Frederick laid the basic foundations of what would eventually become the Prussian primary education system issuing in 1763 a decree for the first Prussian general school law based on the principles developed by Johann Julius Hecker. A true progressive in matters of learning he championed the acquisition of knowledge for the sake of knowledge and believed that women ought to be provided with the same opportunities of their male counterparts as the were no less capable: 'leur intelligence ne le cède point à celle de l'homme et même qu'avec une éducation plus mâle elles l'emporteraient sur nous'. 'Their intelligence does not yield to that of man and even that with a more masculine education they would prevail over us'. ESTC records a single copy Miami. ESTC N33830.
