00046London: 1781. In a Contemporary Morocco Binding Attributed To Derôme Le Jeune<br /> <br /> ROUSSEAU Jean Baptiste. DEROME Nicholas Denis aka Le Jeune binder; attributed to. Œuvres de Rousseau. Nouvelle édition. London: 1781.<br /> <br /> Two twelvemo volumes 4 5/8 x 2 13/16 inches; 118 x 72 mm. 4 252; 4 276 pp. Engraved frontispiece portrait by Delvaux in Volume I. <br /> <br /> Contents: Volume I "Odes sacrées" "Odes Liv. II-IV" and "Cantates allégoriques." Volume II "Epitres Liv. I-II" "Allégories Liv. I-II" "Epigrammes Liv. I-IV" and "Poésies diverses."<br /> <br /> Contemporary full red morocco attributed to Derôme Le Jeune unsigned but with dentelles à l'oiseau characteristic of Derôme to volume two. Covers with gilt triple fillet border smooth spines decoratively tooled in gilt in panels with two olive green morocco gilt lettering labels board edges with single gilt fillet gilt dentelles à l'oiseau all edges gilt bright blue endpapers. The absolute bare minimum of rubbing to extremities. A wonderful example.<br /> <br /> "Derôme was born on October 1 1731 became a master binder on March 31 1761 and was elected one of the Gardes en Charge of the Community of the Master Binders and Guilders of the City and University of Paris on May 10 1773 at the same time as François Gaudreau binder to the dauphine. He died around the year 1788 i.e. 1790. the designs used by Derôme on his bindings are extremely graceful and rival those of Padeloup to which they have a strong resemblance. It is be true that he purchased the material and stamps of this binder at the sale of his effects after his death it explains to some extent the great similarity of the ornamentation employed by the two artists. Derôme executed many mosaic bindings but his great renown has been gained by his dentelles especially those in which he introduced a little bird with outstretched wings and which are in consequence termed dentelles à l'oiseau" Fletcher W.I. Bookbinding in France.<br /> <br /> Marius Michel in La Reliure Française says that Derôme sought and found in the industries of his time the elements for new decoration and crowned his efforts with the dentelles to which he has given his name and which are distinguished from preceding ones by not being made up of the same tools in repetition but in combination thus affording more variety.<br /> <br /> "Jean-Baptiste Rousseau April 6 1671- March 17 1741 was a French poet. He was born in Paris the son of a shoemaker and was well educated. As a young man he gained favour with Boileau who encouraged him to write. Rousseau began with the theatre for which he had no aptitude. A one-act comedy Le Café failed in 1694 and he was not much happier with a more ambitious play Le Flatteur 1696 or with the opera Venus et Adonis 1697. In 1700 he tried another comedy Le Capricieux which had the same fate. He then went with Tallard as an attaché to London and in days when literature still led to high position seemed likely to achieve success.<br /> <br /> "His misfortunes began with a club squabble at the Café Laurent which was much frequented by literary men and where he indulged in lampoons on his companions. A shower of libellous and sometimes obscene verses was written by or attributed to him and at last he was turned out of the café. At the same time his poems as yet printed only singly or in manuscript acquired him a great reputation due to the dearth of genuine lyrical poetry between Jean Racine and André de Chénier. In 1701 he was made a member of the Académie des inscriptions; he was offered though he had not accepted profitable places in the revenue department; he had become a favourite of the libertine but influential côterie of the Temple; and in 1710 he presented himself as a candidate for the Académie française.<br /> <br /> "Verses more offensive than ever were handed round and gossip maintained that Rousseau was their author. Legal proceedings of various kinds followed and Rousseau ascribed the lampoon to Joseph Saunin. In 1712 Rousseau was prosecuted for defamation of character and on his non-appearance in court was condemned to perpetual exile. He spent the rest of his life in foreign countries except for a clandestine visit to Paris in 1738; he refused to accept the permission to return which was offered him in 1716 because it was not accompanied by complete rehabilitation.<br /> <br /> "Prince Eugène and then other persons of distinction took him under their protection during his exile and at Soleure he printed the first edition of his poetical works. He met Voltaire in Brussels in 1722. Voltaire's Le Pour et le contre is said to have shocked Rousseau who expressed his sentiments freely. At any rate the latter had thenceforward no fiercer enemy than Voltaire. His death elicited from Jean-Jacques Lefranc marquis de Pompignan an ode that was perhaps better than anything of Rousseau's own work. That work may be roughly divided into two sections. One consists of formal and partly sacred odes and cantatas of the stiffest character of which perhaps the Ode a la fortune is the most famous; the other of brief epigrams sometimes licentious and always or almost always ill-natured"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-Baptiste_Rousseau.

17791748Original manuscript / ink drawing. c.1779-1788. Pen and ink portrait of Jean Jacques Rousseau in the garden at Ermenonville titled beneath "venant d'herboriser dans les Jardins d'Ermenonville au mois de Juin 1778" along with a printed version of the image signed Mayer Georg Friedrich Meyer engraved by J. M. Moreau in 1779. Each 15 x 10cm. Accompanied by an ink manuscript letter 10.5 x 8cm headed "Nuneham July 21" presenting the images: "Lord Harcourt sends his compts. to Mr. Malthus and at the request of Mr. le Mqs. de Girardin encloses this portrait of J: J: Rousseau". Contained within the original postal cover addressed to Mr. Daniel Malthus redirected from his London address to Cookham signed at the foot by Harcourt under the parliamentary privilege franking system with additional "free" handstamps to the front panel and further postal markings to the reverse the specific types of postal markings on the cover indicate a date range of 1779-1788. The ink portrait engraved portrait and postal cover all have historical burn marks and associated loss as well as toning and light foxing; the letter remains in good order. A fascinating and intimate gift linking several late eighteenth-century intellectuals all connected to the French philosopher Jean Jacques Rousseau in the form of two portraits of the philosopher one ink one engraved sent from Rousseau's last pupil René de Girardin Marquis of Vauvray 1735-1808 via the radically-inclined politician and gardener George Harcourt 2nd Earl Harcourt 1736-1809 to the father of the famous economist Thomas Malthus Daniel Malthus 1730-1800 himself a friend of Rousseau.</p><p>The present portrait depicts Rousseau in the final weeks of his life 'botanizing' in the garden at Ermenonville the first French landscape garden created by his pupil René de Girardin who here sends the portrait. Ermenonville was itself inspired by Rousseau's ideas created by Girardin as an illustration of his philosophical and social beliefs regarding the place of man in nature. Within the garden Girardin began construction of a house for Rousseau modelled after the "Élysée" of Julie in Rousseau's novel <em>La Nouvelle Héloïse</em>. Rousseau himself visited the garden in May 1778 staying in a small thatched cottage where he remained until his death in July that year. Girardin subsequently made a tomb for Rousseau at Ermenonville which became a destination of pilgrimage for his admirers until his body was re-interred at the Pantheon in Paris in October 1794. Following Rousseau's death Girardin and two other of his friends of prepared a complete edition of his works using the manuscripts of some of his most important writings including <em>Les Confessions </em>and <em>Les Rêveries du promeneur solitaire</em> which he had left behind at Ermenonville. This new edition was published in Geneva between 1780 and 1782 and contributed greatly to the spread of Rousseau's ideas throughout France and beyond in the years leading up to the French Revolution.</p><p>The original drawing of Rousseau at Ermenonville was executed by the German artist Georg Friedrich Meyer 1733-1779 who also resided with Girardin at Eremenonville during his final years and where he became well acquainted with Rousseau. Other similar versions of this drawing by Meyer exist one being in the collection of the Fine Art Museum of San Francisco and it is unclear as to whether the present pen and ink drawing is an original work by Meyer or a contemporary copy of the engraving - either way its origin from the hands of Girardin himself provide it with sufficient interest. </p><p>The present two portraits subsequently made their way to the politician George Harcourt 2nd Earl Harcourt previously Viscount Nuneham a supporter of John Wilkes friend of Catherine Macaulay opponent of the war against the American colonies and pioneering garden designer. Here he apparently acted as an intermediary in this distinguished friendship circle sending the pictures on to Daniel Malthus - enlightened gentlemen friend of David Hume and Rousseau and father to Thomas Malthus.</p><p>Daniel Malthus had first become acquainted with Rousseau when he visited him at Môtiers in May 1764. He later invited Rousseau and his wife Thérèse to stay at his estate "The Rookery" near Dorking Surrey during the couple's visit to England in 1766 with Malthus hoping to find them a place to settle nearby. They visited the Malthus home for a day with Hume about three weeks after Thomas's birth but ultimately settled in Derbyshire for the remainder of their visit. Daniel and several family members subsequently went north to visit Rousseau joining him on botanical expeditions - a shared passion. Rousseau and Malthus maintained a lifelong correspondence and botanical exchange with the pair enthusiastically swapping English and French literature botanical specimens and philosophical musings. Later in life Rousseau would divide his personal herbarium among his friends sending parts of it to Daniel who also ultimately purchased his botanical library.</p><p>Daniel Malthus was - like Girardin - a dedicated Rousseauist using like many enlightened families of the period Rousseau's <em>Émile</em> as a guide to the education of his children; as he described in a letter to Rousseau of 1768 his children botanized in their local area went on nature walks carried out farm work and conducted their own little experiments. Indeed in his last known letter to Rousseau he declared "if I am ever known it will be as the friend of Rousseau". He would however ultimately be best known by his progeny Thomas who would go on to famously argue against the writings of the thinkers who proclaimed humanity's perfectibility preferred by his father including Rousseau William Godwin and the Marquis de Condorcet. Regardless of this Daniel keenly supported his adult son's endeavours with Thomas's earlier unorthodox education itself also having played a key role in shaping his knowledge of natural law and mathematics.
