First edition of the last major work of the French philosopher and encyclopédiste Helvetius De l'esprit On the Mind was condemned by the Church and the Sorbonne for its uncompromising atheism regarded as dangerously revolutionary by the Court of Louis XV and publicly condemned by Parliament. A follower of Locke's empiricism Helvetius's work was an important development in the history of utilitarian thought and both Bentham and Mill were strongly influenced by Helvetius's elaboration of a theory which saw mankind as the product of his environment and his education. <br /> <br /> The first issue of the first edition is very rare: Smith locates only 15 copies.

Helvetius French 1715-71 was one of the encyclopedistes and De l'esprit is his major work. It was written as a response to Montesquie's L'Esprit de lois and was first printed in 1758. It attracted immediate attention and aroused formidable opposition because of its utilitarian philosophy. The Sorbonne the Parlement of Paris the Pope the Bishop of Paris as well as various other bishops condemned the book. It was even publicly burned by the hangman. The attendant controversy caused it to be widely read and many editions were printed within a short time to satisfy the demand. This is a later edition by the publisher of the original edition printed the same year as the first edition.
