Benjamin Constant 1767-1830 was one of the most influential liberal political theorists of the early nineteenth century and a prominent figure in French intellectual life after the Revolution and the fall of Napoleon. A gifted writer journalist and parliamentarian Constant argued for constitutional government civil liberties and freedom of expression. His writings-including essays political speeches and novels-helped shape modern liberal thought especially his distinction between the "liberty of the ancients" and the "liberty of the moderns" emphasizing individual rights and representative government. His 1814 work De la liberté des brochures des pamphlets et des journaux defended freedom of the press at a moment when France was transitioning from Napoleonic rule to the Bourbon Restoration making the book an important statement in the early struggle over modern political freedoms. Sophie de Condorcet 1764-1822 the Marquise de Condorcet was a leading intellectual and salonnière of late-eighteenth- and early-nineteenth-century France. Widowed during the French Revolution after the death of her husband the philosopher Marquis de Condorcet she became an important guardian and editor of his works while maintaining a prominent Paris salon that attracted many liberal thinkers and political reformers. A writer and translator in her own right-most notably translating the works of Adam Smith into French-she advocated educational reform women's intellectual advancement and Enlightenment ideals of reason and progress. Her intellectual circle overlapped with many of the liberal political figures active during the Restoration period making a presentation copy from Constant to Madame de Condorcet a meaningful association within the broader network of early modern liberal thought. 1410251.

ESQUISSE D’UN TABLEAU HISTORIQUE

179820608vo pp. viii 389 1 blank; occasional spotting and marking but never heavy; the odd tear to foot with slight paper loss but never affecting text; final leaf stuck to wrapper but verso blank so with no loss of text; uncut in interim wrappers; wrappers worn but sound spine chipped at head and foot with light dampstain to head and old manuscript paper label.First Milan printing uncommon of Condorcet's monumental survey of the history of human endeavour first published posthumously in 1795.An 'ouvrage d'un utilité générale et durable' the Esquisse represents a summation of Concordet's thoughts on the notion of human progress and thus can in some ways be seen as a definitive encapsulation of the enlightenment project or at least of one view of it. Condorcet divides his work into ten époques tracing human history from the initial formation of societies through the development of agriculture the invention of writing the intellectual and scientific achievements of classical Greece the progress not uninterrupted of the sciences the invention of printing and the tense relationship between scientific progress and 'the yoke of authority'. Closing with two chapters on the period from Descartes until the French Revolution and on his expectations for future human progress Condorcet demonstrates his optimism: 'Our hopes for the future state of the human species can be reduced to these three important points: the destruction of inequality between nations; the progress of equality within nations; and finally the real perfection of humanity. Are not all nations bound one day to approach the state of civilisation reached by the most enlightened freest least prejudiced of peoples such as the French and the Anglo-Americans' p.328Concorcet's work was instantly popular with 1795 printings in Paris and Zürich; it was swiftly translated into English printed in both London and Philadephia and German Tübingen before Zatta in Venice published an Italian translation by Luigi Bossi in 1797. The present edition is the first to be printed in French in Italy.Outside Continental Europe OCLC records copies at Connecticut the College of the Holy Cross in Massachusetts and Durham.
