Les Colloques d'Erasme

172058442à Leyde Leiden: Chez Pierre VanderBoudoin Janisson Vander 1720. Fine. Chez Pierre Vander Boudoin Janisson Vander à Leyde Leiden 1720 9.50 x 17 cm 6 volumes reliés First edition of Nicolas Gueudeville's translation particularly sought after for its illustration with the first printing of 55 half-page figures unsigned in the style of Romain de Hooge or Harrewyn Cohen 347. A frontispiece by Schinove and a large vignette with the arms of Frederick of Gloucester Prince of Hanover. Title pages in red and black. Contemporary full speckled brown calf bindings. Decorated smooth spines. Red morocco title labels and tan morocco volume labels. Triple fillet frame on boards. Head caps partially missing on volumes III and IV the others worn. Tail caps on volumes II III and VI worn. In volume VI from p. 95 to 115 a folded corner. Despite the noted flaws a handsome set well bound. Just like The Praise of Folly translated by Guedeville a little earlier which met with such success that this was the title retained in France for Erasmus's work although it was the translator's The Colloquies is a mixed work not merely an adaptation like most 18th-century translations but a recreation according to Guedeville's aims. The Colloquia Familiares or familiar conversations are a series of dialogues with very varied characters intended to represent the human comedy with a real didactic intention on the author's part: didacticism of language and morals. It is the entire society of the 16th century that parades through these dialogues with a watchword for the whole: the folly of men. Aubrey Rosenberg and most recently Paul Smith have examined Gueudeville's style as a translator and its main characteristics: amplification modernization oralization. As a general rule the translation is twice as long as the original the additions consisting essentially of humorous touches and jokes that accentuate the banter intended for a popular readership that does not necessarily read Latin. Allusions to current events are scattered here and there: the translator does not forget that he is also a journalist and there would undoubtedly remain discoveries to be made if one wanted to scrutinize more precisely the political scope of certain choices. The modernization furthermore consists in the use of fashionable vocabulary as well as the invention of pleasant neologisms. The insertion of oral turns of phrase such as interrogatives engaging the reader finally proceeds from Gueudeville's particular attention to the genre of texts he translates. He is thus sensitive to the theatricality implied by declamations. Similarly from the preface of his Colloquies he addresses his readers: ""Voulez vous bien que nous approfondissions un peu la Matière "" ""Would you like us to delve a little deeper into the Matter"". It nonetheless remains that the translator intends to be very respectful and faithful to Erasmus's work as evidenced by the numerous preliminary pieces on the author but he was above all concerned with amusing while instructing in keeping with the spirit of his century and the result seems to measure up as the philosophical and moralist matter of these dialogues is enhanced by a freshness of tone and banter for which Gueudeville is responsible.

1643ST20492Lugduni Batavorum Leyden: Bonaventura Elzevier and Abraham Elzevier 1643. Second Elzevier Edition. 137 x 78 mm. 5 1/2 x 3". 12 p.l. 672 44 pp. 2 leaves. ELEGANT EARLY 19TH CENTURY RED STRAIGHT-GRAIN MOROCCO VERY ELABORATELY GILT BY BOZERIAN unsigned but see below covers framed by bead-and-star roll enclosed with double gilt fillets leaf tools at corners. smooth spine in compartments with large central fleuron of floral lancets emanating from central circlet in a richly stippled ground small circles at corners one compartment with gilt lettering cresting tulip and violet roll at foot of spine turn-ins with bead-and-star roll marbled endpapers vellum flyleaves all edges gilt. Woodcut initials headpieces and tailpieces numismatic portrait tondo fine engraved title page by C. C. Dusend showing Erasmus gazing through a telescope at the Godly orb seen through parted clouds. Willems 552; Rahir 546; USTC 1027918. For the binding: Culot "Jean Claude Bozerian" Roulette 9 Plate I and Palette 12 Plate X. Just barely perceptible rubbing to joints and extremities one leaf with tiny burn hole affecting a couple of words intermittent minor foxing negligible ink spots here and there other trivial imperfections but an extremely attractive copy the text fresh and clean and the very well-preserved binding with lustrous leather and bright gilt. This is a remarkably pretty copy of an extremely influential but generically elusive work printed by a legendary press and bound by the founder of a celebrated French binding dynasty. First published in 1524 the "Colloquia" comprise 63 conversations originally written for Erasmus' students on varied and overlapping topics but these urbane meditations soon became widely read as they covered subjects that intrigued the important thinkers of the day. Their influence was so profound that it is not saying too much to claim that they helped to speed the Reformation. Although they are difficult to classify precisely one could categorize them as including in general terms exposure of ritualistic fallacies invective against corruption within the church examination of popular imposture deploring of contemporary personal sins practical advice for laymen and miscellaneous discussion of amusing topics. In specific terms the text takes on such controversial topics as the value of pilgrimage celibacy and abstinence from meat on Fridays and other prescribed days. Erasmus' "Colloquia" was frequently published by the Elzeviers once in French and a total of nine times in Latin. The text was universally adopted for school use up through the 18th century. Although our lovely little binding is unsigned Culot firmly identifies its tools as those used by Jean-Claude Bozerian 1762-1840. He was the elder of the Bozerian brothers François is referred to as "le jeune" and was active in Paris from 1795 to about 1810. He began his career in Lyon as an apprentice bookseller printer and bookbinder eventually deciding to focus on the latter craft. Marriage to the widow of binder Pierre Boulier allowed him to establish a binding workshop in Paris where he was joined by his brother. His bindings were soon much in demand by French bibliophiles who appreciated their superior materials tasteful design and flawless execution--all characteristics that are plainly evident in the present case.

A Plan for the Conduct of Female Education in Boarding Schools Private Families and Public Seminaries.to which are added the rudiments of taste in a series of letters from a mother to her daughters.

179817365Philadelphia: Printed by John Omrod 1798 First American edition of this educational classic that shows the influence of Rousseau on the work of Erasmus Darwin 1731 – 1802. First published in London the previous year. Included in this edition is an American printing of Mrs. M. Peddle's Rudiments of Taste a popular conduct book was first published in London in 1789 and in the United States in 1790. Contemporary tree sheep with red morocco spine label. Gilt-ruled spine. Twelvemo. Separate title-page for Mrs. M. Peddle's The Rudiments of Taste. Some wear to binding and a couple cracks to sheep on upper board. Quite a fresh copy despite some foxing to first few leaves and some slight toning throughout. A very good tight copy of a fragile book. Darwin wrote the present work after helping his daughters Susan and Mary Parker establish a boarding school for young women in 1794. Here he draws on the theories of Rousseau Locke and Genlis to advocate for the education of women in schools in topics like philosophy the natural sciences history art manufacturing and language. Darwin believed that women should be educated for the purpose of becoming better wives and companions to men but promoted progressive notions that women's education would take place in well-resourced schools rather than in the home and that women should be educated in the concepts of finance industry and manufacturing. In Peddle's The Rudiments of Taste "Classical influence blends with Christian…Peddle recommends reading ancient and modern history travels biography science and good poetry not novels which leave their readers incapable of 'relishing anything superior'" Blain Grundy and Clements eds.

Zoonomie ou lois de la vie organique (...) Traduit de l'anglais sur la troisième édition, et augmenté d'observations et de notes, par par Joseph-François Kluyskens

1810101765Gand, P. F. de Goesin-Verhaeghe, 1810-1811, in-8, 4 vol. : [6]-20 pp, [1] ff, pp. 19 à 23-[1], 614 pp, 3 pl. ? [4]-659-[1] pp, 4 pl. ? XIV-586 pp, 3 pl. ? [2]-570 pp, 1 pl. dépl, Demi-veau glacé postérieur, dos lisses et fleuronnés, pièces de titre et de tomaison havane, tranches marbrées, Première édition française de cet ouvrage majeur par le grand père de Charles Darwin, Erasmus Darwin (1731-1802). Cette somme, où se mêlent médecine, biologie et philosophie naturelle, avec certaines intuitions évolutionnistes, a été publiée à l'origine en 1794-1796 (Zoonomia; or the laws of organic life. 2 vols. London, J. Johnson). Le texte est illustré de onze planches, dont cinq en couleurs, qui représentent des expériences de persistence rétinienne et des inventions - ou appareil améliorés - de l'auteur : une machine thérapeutique à décharge électrostatique, consistant en une planchette et deux tubes de verre; un fauteuil orthopédique; une boîte à brosse circulaire pour pulvérisation de quinquina et de céruse dans le traitement de la phtisie; et un "lit de repos mobile à roues", envisagé pour faire tourner les malades afin de les endormir. Erasmus Darwin, inventeur, poète et pionnier en médecine, s'est préoccupé de philosophie naturelle et s'est intéressé aux recherches et inventions contemporaines. Il conçut un moulin à vent horizontal, une charrue améliorée, une pompe rotative ou encore une machine parlante. Il travailla aussi sur la turbine à vapeur, les toilettes, les élévateurs de canal et les télescopes. Il explora encore la formation des nuages, décrivit la photosynthèse et défendit un traitement humain des maladies mentales (Heirs of Hippocrates n° 998). On le considère comme un théoricien précoce de l'évolution : il postulait que la reproduction sexuelle est au coeur des changements et des progrès de l'évolution, tant chez les humains que chez les plantes. Son célèbre descendant déclara toutefois que la théorie d'Erasmus n'avait pas eu d'effet sur L'Origine des espèces (Laniel-Musitelli) : toutefois, Charles Darwin reconnaissait l'intérêt des travaux de son aïeul, en admettant notamment qu'il était "curieux de voir combien le docteur Erasme Darwin, [son] grand-père, dans sa Zoonomia (...), a devancé Lamarck dans ses idées et ses erreurs"*.
