Text in Italian. Part 4 in a series of writings by 4 authors under the collective title Morgana. The New World of Love is a text published posthumously in 1967 well-hundred and thirty years after it was written by Charles Fourier . It describes the nature of the new sexual relationships as they take place in the utopian society of Harmony. The Loves are divided into five types: The order is simple either purely material or purely sentimental the "celadonismo"; the order comprises both material and sentimental; polygamy; collective orgies; and homosexuality. The basic idea is that nature created love to multiply social ties while the repressive institutions created by civilization such as marriage hinder those links. paraphrased from Wikipedia.

The widow of a cloth merchant Vigoureux met utopian socialist Charles Fourier in 1822.

She died in 1865 at a Phalanstere commuity founded by her son-in-law in Texas. The Parole de Providence was first published in 1834 as a response to the theories of Lamennaise in which she apologized for the bloody violence in Lyon and Paris which she explained was the opposit of Fourier's theory of social harmony.

3549all published. 2 p.l. xxiv 258 pp. Large 4to cont. half-calf & marbled boards very carefully rebacked with orig. spine laid-down spine gilt pale blue lettering piece on spine. Paris: Firmin Didot Frères 1831. First edition of the work which first contains "Fourier's theorem" on the number of real roots between two chosen limits. "At the time of his death Fourier was trying to prepare these and many other results for a book to be called Analyse des équations déterminées; he had almost finished only the first two of its seven livres. His friend Navier edited it for publication in 1831 inserting an introduction to establish from attested documents including the 1789 paper Fourier's priority on results which had by then become famous. Perhaps Fourier was aware that he would not live to finish the work for he wrote a synopsis of the complete book which also appeared in the edition. The synopsis indicated his wide interests in the subject of which the most important not yet mentioned were various means of distinguishing between real and imaginary roots refinements to the Newton-Raphson method of approximating to the root of an equation extensions to Daniel Bernoulli's rule for the limiting value of the ratio of successive terms of a recurrent series and the method of solution and applications of linear inequalities. Fourier's remarkable understanding of the last subject makes him the great anticipator of linear programming."-D.S.B. V p. 98. Very nice copy. Old library stamp on title. ❧ Cajori A History of Mathematics p. 433-This book "contains much original matter in particular there is a demonstration of Fourier's theorem on the position of the roots of an algebraical equation.". hardcover books
