1876157480Paris: Librairie des Bibliphiles 1876. Third Edition. No. 476 of 500 copies. Hardcover. Very good . xi 247 p. 22 cm. 83 b&w engravings by Holbein. Bound in half leather with marbled boards and endpapers. Top edge gilt. Light scuffing to spine and a bit of shelf wear. Ink signature on a front endpaper. French text. <br/><br/>Erasmus wrote In Praise of Folly in Latin in 1509. Having formed its outline during his travels in Italy and Germany the author revised and expanded the work during his stay with his friend Sir Thomas More in Bucklersbury England. "Folly" is considered one of the most influential works in Western literature and a catalyst for the Reformation. The work enjoyed great popular success much to Erasmus's astonishment and sometimes his dismay. Even Pope Leo X found it amusing. Librairie des Bibliphiles hardcover

[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"*.

This work is "the celebrated forerunner of Darwinism" and the one which alone has made the author's name memorable apart from his familial connection with Charles Darwin. The work sustains a peculiar but original thesis in which the author attempts to formulate the laws that govern the origin and progress of animal life. There is much in it that seems to foreshadow Darwinism.<br/><br/> Thames and Andrews unknown books
