169824154<p><strong>1698 PASCAL Pensees Caracteres of Theophrastus French Philosophy Louis XIV</strong></p><p>Jean de La Bruyère was a 17th-century French philosopher best-known for his book '<em>The Caracteres'</em>. This philosophical 'novel' – a loose translation of Theophrastus maxims and sketches – was <strong>written to expose the corruption of the reign of Louis XIV</strong> by identifying the mental characteristics of people. Bruyere wanted to correct people's flaws particularly those with cruel behaviors or bad manners. This work was heavily influenced by a number of great thinkers including Montaigne and Pascal.</p><p>This 1698 edition appeared only a few years after the first – a book which garnered countless critics and enemies. <u>An important work of French philosophy during the reign of Louis XIV</u>.</p><p>Item number: #24154</p><p>Price: $599</p><p>LA BRUYERE Jean de</p><p><strong><em>Suite des caracteres de Theophraste et des PenseÌes de Mr. Pascal</em></strong></p><p>A La Haye: chez Adrian Moetjens 1698.</p><p><u>Details</u>:</p><p><!-- if !supportLists-->· <!--endif-->Collation: Complete with all pages</p><p><!-- if !supportLists-->o <!--endif-->4 267 1</p><p><!-- if !supportLists-->· <!--endif-->Language: French</p><p><!-- if !supportLists-->· <!--endif-->Binding: Leather; tight and secure</p><p><!-- if !supportLists-->· <!--endif-->Size: ~6in X 3.75in 15.5cm x 9.5cm</p><p>Our Guarantee:</p><p>Very Fast.

Contemporary calf boards bordered with double gilt rules spines divided by raised bands between gilt rules red morocco labels third compartments numbered direct in gilt edges sprinkled red. Somewhat scratched spines creased small area of loss to foot of spine of vol. 1. A reissue of Edmund Curll’s 1713 edition with cancel title-pages done in a slightly haphazard manner. The works in volume 1 have been re-ordered to match the listing on the new title-page resulting in an inaccurate contents page and advertisement leaf for Curll’s publications halfway through the book and the engraved title-page for volume 2 retains Curll’s imprint and the date of 1713 a date shared by the title-pages of the individual works across both volumes. In addition to La Bruyere’s work these volumes contain an account of his life and writings attributed to a M. Coste and a chapter in La Bruyere’s style by Nicholas Rowe 1674-1718. ESTC locates 8 copies 7 of which in North American institutions with only Birmingham in the UK. ESTC N25818. Printed and Sold by A. Bettesworth [et al.] hardcover
