1849Best.-Nr. 26050Title: Two Lives; or To Seem and To Be. Author: McINTOSH Maria J. Author of "Charms and Counter-Charms" "Aunt Kitty's Tales" "Conquest and Self-Conquest" etc. Publisher: New York: D. Appleton & Company 200 Broadway / Philadelphia: Geo. S. Appleton 164 Chestnut Street. Date: 1849 M DCCC XLIX Edition: Early Appleton Standard Issue / Seventh Thousand / Double-Signed Familial Provenance Copy. Language: English Format: Small Octavo 8vo approx. 18.5 x 12.0 cm. Condition Report & Description: An exceptional entirely unrestored mid-19th-century American survival in outstanding original condition. Bound in the publisher's original uniform full brown/aubergine fine-ribbed cloth. Both boards are magnificently decorated with an elaborate crisp central medallion featuring an interlocking Gothic/Moorish geometric strapwork frame enclosed within sweeping botanical corners stamped cleanly in blind. Spine remains completely stable and unchipped with its original gilt-stamped title. The binding is structurally tight firm and perfectly square retaining its original vibrant yellow-coated endpapers in a completely stable uncracked state. Internally very good; text block collates complete 262 pages followed by multi-page publisher's promotional catalogues including the targeted "Interesting Books for Ladies" registry. The leaves display uniform light-to-moderate scattered brown foxing entirely characteristic of mid-century American paper stock but remain flat crisp and completely free of modern annotations or text underlining. Provenance & Association Significance: From the historic Civil Collection of Lavigny Château de Lavigny inventory. This volume carries an extraordinary dual-generation domestic provenance chain documenting its journey within the prominent de La Rive family. The half-title page features a formal multi-line ink ownership registry executed entirely in the hand of the celebrated Genevan physicist Prof. Auguste de La Rive: "Mme A. de la Rive / Maison de la Rive / Genève / Suisse" cataloging the book into the primary urban townhouse library in Geneva for his first wife the English-born author Jeanne-Mathilde Duppa 1808–1850. Crucially the previous blank flyleaf page carries the signature of their daughter "Adèle de la Rive" executed in a fluid elegant late-adolescent script shortly after her mother's untimely death in 1850 and prior to her own 1852 marriage. This signature documents Adèle actively claiming her late mother's copy for her personal collection and subsequently bringing it with her to the Château de Lavigny library. Read alongside her collection of progressive American female authors—most notably the pioneering scientist horticulturist and utopian writer Mary Griffith—McIntosh's text provided a vital ideological framework. The novel's core theme fiercely advocates for practical capable female autonomy "To Be" over superficial societal compliance "To Seem". This book stands as an irreplaceable material record of the progressive transatlantic literary curation that directly shaped Adèle's mind laying the psychological and administrative foundations for her subsequent sovereign management and radical structural improvement of the Tronchin estate after 1873.

Deux Vies : ou Paraître et Être. Auteur : McINTOSH Maria J. Auteur de " Charms and Counter-Charms " " Aunt Kitty's Tales " etc. Éditeur : New York : D. Appleton & Company / Philadelphia : Geo. S. Appleton. Date : 1849 M DCCC XLIX Édition : Ancienne édition Appleton Mention de "Seventh Thousand" / Double provenance familiale croisée. Langue : Anglais Format : In-octavo In-8 d'environ 185 x 120 cm. État de l'exemplaire & Description : Un précieux témois de l'édition américaine du milieu du XIXe siècle conservé dans un état de fraîcheur exceptionnel entièrement d'origine et sans aucune restauration. Cartonnage d'éditeur en pleine percaline d'origine brun/aubergine au grain finement côtelé. Les deux plats sont ornés d'un grand décor central estampé à froid de style gothico-mauresque à entrelacs géométriques encadré de riches bordures florales. Le dos est resté parfaitement solide sain et complet portant son titre doré d'origine. Volume ferme et d'équerre conservant ses gardes d'origine enduites de couleur jaune pâle intactes et non fendues. L'intérieur est très bon : le texte est complet 262 pages suivies des catalogues publicitaires de l'éditeur dont la section ciblée " Interesting Books for Ladies ". Le papier présente des rousseurs brunes claires diffuses et uniformes ce qui est tout à fait typique des papiers américains de cette période mais les feuillets restent bien plats sains exemptes de toute note marginale ou soulignement tardif. Provenance & Importance Historique : Issu de la prestigieuse Collection Civile de Lavigny Inventaire du Château de Lavigny. Cet exemplaire s'illustre par une double marque de propriété d'époque d'un intérêt archivistique majeur retraçant sa trajectoire de l'hôtel particulier genevois vers le château. La page de faux-titre porte une inscription formelle à l'encre de la main même du célèbre physicien suisse le Professeur Auguste de La Rive : " Mme A. de la Rive / Maison de la Rive / Genève / Suisse " enregistrant l'entrée du livre dans la bibliothèque de leur demeure genevoise pour sa première épouse l'autrice d'origine anglaise Jeanne-Mathilde Duppa 1808–1850. De façon tout à fait remarquable la page de garde blanche précédente porte la signature manuscrite d'" Adèle de la Rive " tracée d'une écriture mûre de la fin de son adolescence exécutée peu après la disparition précoce de sa maman en 1850 et juste avant son propre mariage en 1852. Cette mention atteste qu'Adèle s'est approprié l'ouvrage maternel pour sa collection personnelle avant de l'apporter avec elle au Château de Lavigny. Replacé dans le contexte de ses lectures d'autrices américaines progressistes — et tout particulièrement de la scientifique horticultrice et romancière utopiste Mary Griffith — le texte de McIntosh prend une dimension éminemment émancipatrice. L'ouvrage prône une autonomie féminine concrète et pragmatique " Être " face aux faux-semblants de la conformité sociale " Paraître ". Ce volume constitue le témoin matériel d'une construction intellectuelle transatlantique délibérée ayant fourni à Adèle les structures psychologiques et les modèles de gestion nécessaires à sa prise en charge souveraine et à la modernisation radicale du domaine des Tronchin après son veuvage en 1873.
