A Mr. D'Alembert.sur son Article Genève dans le VIIme. Volume de l'Encyclopédie et particulierement sur le projet d'établir un Théatre de Comédie en cette Ville. - THE PLACE OF ENTERTAINMENT IN SOCIETY

17587874Amsterdam M.M.Rey 1758. 8vo. Beautiful contemporary full mottled calf with five raised bands and gilt red leather title-label to richly gilt spine. All edges Minor loss to lower capital but apart from that an absolutely beautiful copy internally as well as externally. Very nice clan and fresh. Printed on good paper with good margins. Engraved title-vignette. XVIII 264 8 pp. <br/><br/><em>The rare first edition of this important work which inaugurated one of the most significant intellectual debates of the 18th century.The letter is Rousseau's answer to the article on the city of Geneva which his friend d'Alembert had written for the French "Encyclopédie". In the article d'Alembert had suggested that the citizens of Geneva establish a theatre which - so d'Alembert - would lead to a refinement of the mores and ways of the Genevans not to mention adding a bit of sparkle to a city which he described as dreary and sad. The response by Rousseau opened up what was one of the most important intellectual polemics of the 18th century.Rousseau a citizen of Geneva by birth uses the article by d'Alembert as a springboard for a reflection on the place of culture in society. He relates the institution of the theatre to the question of political morality and attempts to define boundaries between the morally innocuous and corruptive forms of entertainment. The letter is permeated by a pronounced Platonism. The arguments which Rousseau advances against the theatre closely recall those advanced by Plato in the Republic against the poets. As Plato Rousseau focuses his attention on the artificial nature of the theatrical spectacle which leads the mind astray away from the concerns of an industrious and fulfilled life. For anybody with an interest in the work and life of Rousseau the "Lettre à d'Alembert" is an invaluable document. Not only does it connect Rousseau's earlier writings - the Discourse on the Arts and Sciences 1750 and the Discourse on the Origin and Basis of Inequality among Men 1754 - to his later major work; it also offers an insight into the differences of opinion that would lead Rousseau to break with the circle around the encyclopaedists. The present edition is unknown to Dufour and Tchmerzine but recent research has determined that this is the actual first printing see for instance: Azers "Histoire de l'Impression et la publication de la "Lettre à d'Alembert"" Sénelier. </em> hardcover

A Treatise on the Social Compact: or The Principles of Politic Law.

1764148170London: Printed for T. Becket and P.A. De Hondt in the Strand 1764. First edition in English of Jean-Jacques Rousseau's magnum opus; a seminal treatise on political philosophy and precursor of the French revolution. Twelvemo bound in full contemporary calf with gilt titles and tooling to the spine in six compartments within raised gilt bands morocco spine labels lettered in gilt triple gilt ruling to the front and rear panels gilt turn-ins and inner dentelles all edges gilt marbled endpapers 3pp. advertisements at end. In near fine condition. Exceedingly rare with only a handful of copies traced in auction records exceptionally rare and desirable. "The Contrat Social remains Rousseau's greatest work. Rousseau believed passionately in what he wrote and when in 1789 a similar emotion was released on a national scale the Contract Social came into its own as the bible of the revolutionaries in building their ideal state. Still in print translated into every language in cheap editions and paperbacks it remains a crucial document of egalitarian government" Printing and the Mind of Man 270 discussing the 1762 first edition. Written in 1762 Rousseau's seminal work provided a philosophical justification for revolutionary change by promoting the principles of popular sovereignty the general will equality liberty and political participation. Rousseau argued that legitimate political authority comes from the consent of the governed rather than from divine right or hereditary monarchy. This idea inspired French revolutionaries to demand a government that represented the will of the people. Upon publication the distribution of The Social Contract in France was prohibited and Rousseau fled the country to avoid imprisonment. It was primarily Rousseau's chapter on civil religion rather than his ideas on liberty and sovereignty that caused the controversy. Immanuel Kant one of the most influential moral philosophers in Western philosophy acknowledged his debt to Rousseau's work in political philosophy of which The Social Contract is perhaps the closest to a complete statement. Kant wrote â€œI myself am a researcher by inclination. I feel the entire thirst for cognition and the eager restlessness to proceed further in it as well as the satisfaction at every acquisition. There was a time when I believed this alone could constitute the honour of humankind and I despised the rabble who knows nothing. Rousseau has set me right. This blinding prejudice vanishes I learn to honour human beings and I would feel by far less useful than the common labourer if I did not believe that this consideration could impart a value to all others in order to establish the rights of humanityâ€ Refl. 20:44. Printed for T. Becket and P.A. De Hondt, in the Strand paperback
