RARA PRIMA EDIZIONE DI UNA DELLE PRINCIPALI OPERE SULLA LINGUA CINESE DEL PIONIERE STUDIOSO ORIENTALE FRANCESE E SECONDA GRAMMATICA SULLA LINGUA DA PUBBLICARE IN EUROPA. 'Fourmont è stato uno dei primi studiosi occidentali a tentare di comprendere il più accuratamente possibile il sistema dei dizionari cinesi e il pensiero che una volta che uno studioso avesse compreso i vari sistemi, sarebbe stato in grado di lavorare da solo. In effetti, a quel tempo gli europei non avevano altro modo per imparare il cinese se non consultare i dizionari e lavorare dal noto all'ignoto. Sfortunatamente, i dizionari di Fourmont non furono mai stampati, e non si trovano nemmeno in forma manoscritta, ad eccezione di un dizionario storico e geografico... 'Le Meditationes possono essere considerate un manuale da usare insieme ai dizionari che Fourmont intendeva pubblicare, ed è solo nella prospettiva di questo progetto più ampio che si può giudicare la sua parola. L'assenza dei dizionari spiega perché è difficile usare il libro di testo. Abel Rémusat, nel diciannovesimo secolo, avrebbe qualificato questo lavoro come accademico ma oscuro, e i suoi avversari sostenevano che Fourmont avesse scritto qualcosa di non veramente utile.' Fourmont attribuiva così tanta importanza alla lettura dei dizionari da criticare la grammatica cinese di Prémare, la Notitia Linguae Sinicae, ricevuta alla Bibliothèque du Roi il 12 maggio 1730, perché non insegnava al lettore come identificare i caratteri o come usare i dizionari cinesi. Era sbalordito dal fatto che un'autorità in cinese come Prémare non prestasse attenzione alle radici cinesi nella sua grammatica e non poté perdonare l'omissione. D'altra parte, secondo Lundbaek, la Notitia Linguae Sinicae di padre de Prémare era troppo avanzata per essere compresa da uno studioso relativamente inesperto. In effetti, padre de Prémare aveva una conoscenza della pedagogia della lingua cinese migliore di Fourmont. La sua opera è composta da frasi scelte dai Classici, che lo studente doveva imparare per familiarizzare con i personaggi e il loro uso. Inoltre, Prémare, per quanto riguarda l'ideologia, era molto più attratto dal metodo di classificazione radicale esposto da Mei Yingzuo. Ogni studioso proiettava la propria preoccupazione nella lingua straniera, e ognuno aveva la sua mistica. “Tuttavia, la familiarità con le radici aiuta a comprendere il significato dei caratteri, e un metodo di classificazione per l'enorme numero di caratteri è considerato di grande utilità. In tal senso Fourmont promuoveva un mezzo pratico di accesso al cinese per il lettore europeo» (Cécile Leung, Etienne Fourmont. (1683-1745), Oriental and Chinese Languages in Eighteenth Century France, pp. 203-204). Fourmont divenne professore di arabo al Collège de France nel 1715. Nel 1713 fu eletto membro dell'Accademia delle iscrizioni, nel 1738 membro della Royal Society di Londra e nel 1742 membro di quella di Berlino. Morì a Parigi l'8 dicembre 1745. In-folio, pp. [8], xxvi, [4], 152, with numerous Chinese characters in woodcut in the text, and one large folding table; an additional cancel of leaf T1 (pages 71-72) with a couple of Chinese characters corrected on recto, bound in after the errata on p. 140; two old stamps to title; a little light browning, slightly heavier to the last leaves; a very good copy in contemporary French mottled calf, spine gilt; minor abrasions to covers; tail of spine a little worn. SCARCE FIRST EDITION OF ONE OF THE MAJOR WORKS ON THE CHINESE LANGUAGE BY THE PIONEERING FRENCH ORIENTAL SCHOLAR, AND THE SECOND GRAMMAR ON THE LANGUAGE TO BE PUBLISHED IN EUROPE. ‘Fourmont was one of the first Western scholars to attempt to understand as accurately as possible the system of Chinese dictionaries, and the thought that once a scholar understood the various systems, he would be able to work by himself. In fact, there was no other way for Europeans to learn Chinese at this time besides consulting the dictionaries and working from the known to the unknown. Unfortunately, Fourmont’s dictionaries were never printed, and are not even to be found in manuscript form, except of a historical and geographical dictionary … ‘The Meditationes can be considered a handbook to be used in conjunction with the dictionaries that Fourmont intended to publish, and it is only in the perspective of this larger project that his word can be judged. The absence of the dictionaries explains why it is difficult to use the text-book. Abel Rémusat would, in the nineteenth century, qualify this work as scholarly but obscure, and his adversaries contended that Fourmont wrote something not really useful. ‘ Fourmont placed so much importance on reading dictionaries that he criticized Prémare’s Chinese grammar, the Notitia Linguae Sinicae, which was received at the Bibliothèque du Roi on May 12, 1730, on the ground that it did not teach the reader how to identify characters or how to use Chinese dictionaries. He was shocked that such an authority on Chinese as Prémare did not pay attention to Chinese radicals in his grammar, and could not forgive the omission. On the other hand, according to Lundbaek, Father de Prémare’s Notitia Linguae Sinicae was far too advanced for the relatively young scholar to understand. As a matter of fact, Father de Prémare had a better grasp of Chinese language pedagogy than Fourmont. His work is made up of sentences chosen from the Classics, which the student was supposed to learn in order to familiarize himself with the characters and their usage. Moreover, Prémare, as far as ideology was concerned, was much more attracted to the method of radical classification as set out by Mei Yingzuo. Each scholar was projecting his own preoccupation into the foreign language, and each had his own mystique. ‘Nevertheless, familiarity with the radicals helps to understand the meaning of the characters, and a method of classification for the enormous number of characters is considered to be of greatest utility. To that extent Fourmont was promoting a practical means of access to Chinese for the European reader’ (Cécile Leung, Etienne Fourmont. (1683-1745), Oriental and Chinese Languages in Eighteenth Century France, pp. 203-204). Fourmont became professor of Arabic in the Collège de France in 1715. In 1713 he was elected a member of the Academy of Inscriptions, in 1738 a member of the Royal Society of London, and in 1742 a member of that of Berlin. He died at Paris on 8 December 1745.
