1643156918Amsterdam: L. Elzevir 1643. Descartes's most significant contribution to the Querelle d'Utrecht First edition of one of Descartes's rarest works his famous open letter to the Dutch Calvinist Gisbert Voetius 1589-1676 who as rector of the University of Utrecht engineered a condemnation of Cartesianism and accused Descartes of actively encouraging atheism. The so-called "Querelle d' Utrecht" was a fierce public argument between Descartes and Voetius which lasted from 1639 until Descartes's death in 1650. Descartes's Letter was written as a response to two works by Voetius and his colleagues: the Confraternitas Mariana 1642 and the Admiranda Methodus 1643. Both attacked Descartes's philosophy and the latter - attributed to Martin Schoock 1614-1669 a supporter of Voetius - charged Descartes with rejecting the traditional proofs for the existence of God. It also implied that he deserved the same treatment as heretics such as Lucilio Vanini the Italian free-thinking philosopher who was executed in 1619 for atheism and blasphemy. In his Letter Descartes defended his philosophy at length and argued for the autonomy of human reason and religious tolerance. "As to moral philosophy the Letter to Voetius contains much of interest not only because it contains extensive discussions of the passions but also because much more than the Passions de l'âme it establishes a link between virtue and knowledge between morality and method" Verbeek. A Dutch translation was issued simultaneously Amsterdam: Van Baerdt 1643 and the original Latin was reprinted several times by the Elzevirs in the quarto editions of the Meditationes.

Through a French émigré and friend of Descartes Palotti she had penetrated further into the thinking of the man she soon considered her master.</em></p><p><em>And in her very first letter May 1643 she asked the philosopher to explain a point in his "Meditations" that she didn't quite grasp: how it could be that "the soul can determine the spirits animals of the body to do voluntary actions being only a thinking substance" and therefore unexpanded. Descartes explains why this point may have remained obscure in his exposition. This discussion which is the most interesting in the whole "Correspondence" occupies all the letters of 1643. In the years that followed the problems that arose with the publication of Descartes' works he sent them to his friend and dedicated his "Passions de l'amour" to her were of all kinds: about the "Principles of Philosophy" about books he advised her to read or on which she asked his opinion about new scientific developments the princess asked for clarification and discussed certain points of physics mathematics morals and metaphysics that she had not grasped or that seemed questionable. "My admiration increases every time I reread the objections made to you how it is possible that people who have spent so many years meditating and studying could not understand things so simple and clear that most in disputing the true and the false seem not to know how they should be discerned and that the sieur Gassendus Gassendi who is in the greatest repute for his learning has made after the Englishman Hobbes objections less reasonable than all the others. "</em></p><p><strong>This correspondence is of very great interest; for in connection with the questions of his interlocutor Descartes was led to take up a certain number of problems and to give a clearer and more complete account of them than in his works</strong>;<em> but above all it is the only direct document that lets us get to know him intimately and in him the man and not just the philosopher. "We learn that he had planned to write a 'Traité de l'érudition' Treatise on Erudition; we gain interesting details about the life all secluded and devoted to study and above all meditation he led in Holland and about the few months he spent at the court of Christine of Sweden."</em></p><p><strong>Descartes also wrote to Mersenne</strong> improvising answers to countless questions with extraordinary ease.</p><p>"The 3 volumes of this correspondence are illustrated with numerous figures and geometric woodcuts".

Par un émigré français ami de Descartes Palotti elle avait pénétré plus avant dans la pensée de celui qu'elle considéra bientôt comme son maître.</em></p><p><em>Et dès sa première lettre mai 1643 elle demande au philosophe quelques explications sur un point de ses " Méditations " qu'elle ne saisit pas bien : comment peut-il se faire que " l'âme puisse déterminer les esprits animaux du corps pour faire les actions volontaires n'étant qu'une substance pensante " donc inétendue. Descartes explique pourquoi ce point a pu demeurer obscur dans son exposé. Cette discussion qui est la plus intéressante de toute la " Correspondance " occupe toutes les lettres de l'année 1643. Au cours des années suivantes les problèmes qui se poseront à l'occasion de la parution des œuvres de Descartes celui-ci les faisait parvenir à son amie et lui dédia ses " Passions de l'amour " sont de tous ordres : à propos des " Principes de la Philosophie " à propos des livres qu'il lui conseille de lire ou sur lesquels elle lui demande son avis à propos des nouveautés scientifiques la princesse se fait éclaircir et discute certains points de physique de mathématiques de morale et de métaphysique qu'elle n'a point saisis ou qui lui semblent contestables. " Mon admiration s'augmente toutes les fois que je relis les objections qu'on vous a faites comment il est possible que des personnes qui ont employé tant d'années à la méditation et à l'étude ne sauraient comprendre des choses si simples et si claires que la plupart en disputant du vrai et du faux semblent ne pas connaître comment il les faut discerner et que le sieur Gassendus Gassendi qui est en la plus grande réputation pour son savoir a fait après l'Anglais Hobbes des objections moins raisonnables que tous les autres. "</em></p><p><strong>Cette correspondance présente un très grand intérêt ; car à propos des questions de son interlocutrice Descartes se trouve amené à reprendre un certain nombre de problèmes et à en donner un exposé plus clair et plus complet que dans ses œuvres </strong>; <em>mais surtout c'est le seul document direct qui nous le fasse connaître dans son intimité et en lui l'homme et non plus seulement le philosophe. " Nous y apprenons qu'il avait projeté d'écrire un " Traité de l'érudition " ; nous y gagnons d'intéressants détails sur la vie toute retirée et consacrée à l'étude et surtout à la méditation qu'il mena en Hollande et sur les quelques mois qu'il passa à la cour de Christine de Suède.</em> "</p><p><strong>Descartes écrit aussi à Mersenne</strong><strong> </strong>improvisant des réponses à d'innombrables questions avec une facilité extraordinaire.</p><p>" Les 3 volumes de cette correspondance sont illustrés de nombreuses figures et dessins géométriques sur bois ".

They include an unsuccessful mathematical attempt to divide the diapason into seventeen equal semitones. Descartes' study of the mathematical basis of music was also an examination of methodology: the application of empirical deductive and scientific approaches to the study of sensory perception.

Provenance/Publisher: In 1833 two brothers from the department of Manche Auguste and Hippolyte Garnier opened a bookstore in the tradition of nineteenth-century publisher-booksellers under the arches of the Palais Royal in Paris then one of the liveliest centers in the capital. They were soon joined by another of their brothers Pierre. The business took off very quickly and the Garnier brothers bought up the backlists of Delloye Dubochet and Salvat publishers of the works of the great romantic authors followed by the classical lists of Panckoucke. They also struck up connections with Sainte-Beuve Musset Gautier Sand and Vigny publishing some of their works. The Maison Garnier Frères gained even more prestige in 1853 when it moved to the former government building on the corner of the rue de Lille and the rue des Saints-Pères. The Garnier brothers worked to expand and improve their catalog publishing numerous dictionaries popular titles and books for young readers while also continuing with their literary publications: collections of Latin and Greek classics and modern works. In 1896 the appearance of the first "Nouvelle Editions" of the Classiques Garnier a new collection combining the previous Classiques latins Classiques grecs and Bibliothèque choisie collections. In the words of the catalog the new collection offered the best French and foreign ancient and modern works. It was a success and frequent references to the Classiques Garnier is featured in autobiographical works thereafter. Over the course of the twentieth century scholarly editions increasingly took precedence. In the 1960s to produce low-cost versions of the "Classiques Garnier" a deal was struck with Flammarion. The low-cost versions were stripped of critical commentary. This was the start of Garnier-Flammarion an independent company in 1970 under the name GF Flammarion. This was one of many deals to assure the solvency of the publisher though eventually Editions Garner Freres went bankrupt in June 1983 their list was bought up by Presses de la Cite. InfoMédia acquired the collection in 1998 with the prime aim of upholding the editorial policies that have made the Classiques Garnier famous for over a century. Since 2009 under the editorial direction of Claude Blum Editions Classiques Garnier has expanded its catalog to include all aspects of literature and the humanities publishing both editions of texts and studies and essays by top specialists.
