1925elala168Paris: René Kieffer 1925. 1925. 8vo. pp. numerous text illus. with pochoir hand-colouring. contemporary half morocco original coloured pictorial wrs. bound in. First Edition Illustrated by Joseph Hémard Limited to 500 copies this one of 480 on vélin de cuve. One of the few of Voltaires works to deal with a distinctly economic subject. Directed against the Physiocrats and specifically Mercier De La Rivières Ordre naturel et essentiel des sociétés the witty and sarcastic tale takes its title from Merciers statement that in an organized state according to the physiocratic doctrine an average sum of forty crowns should suffice for the existence of each citizen. Voltaire singles out for special ridicule the proposed impot unique or single tax on land. The story revolves around the owner of a small estate yielding an annual net income of forty crowns who is alarmed at the promulgation of several edicts "by a few gentlemen who having some leisure have undertaken to govern the kingdom from their firesides". According to them the government "being by divine- and birth-right co-proprietor of his land he at least owes it one-half of his income" and that "as all wealth proceeds from land land is to bear the whole burden of taxation." Carteret IV 406. 1st Edition. Paris: René Kieffer, 1925. unknown

Obtuvo un gran éxito con las novelas <em>Bélisaire</em> 1767 y <em>Les Incas ou la destruction de l´Empire du Perou</em> 1777con acerbas críticas de la conquista española. La presente edición aumentada con <em>"L´Hereusse Famille"</em> ><strong>"<em>L'Homme aux Quarante Écus":</em></strong> Londres sin dato de impresor 1768. <em>El hombre de las cuarenta coronas</em> es la única obra en la que se ocupa Voltaire con el tema de economía. Fue creado como una fábula en respuesta a las políticas económicas del escuela fisiocrática: "El industrial rico podía sonreír al respaldar la doctrina de que no debería ser obligado a pagar el impuesto porque no añadía nada a la riqueza ya que creían que sólo la tierra podía producir un excedente. Esta anomalía inspiró a Voltaire a escribir esta animada sátira; en él el rico financiero quien escapa a los impuestos se burla del pobre granjero que paga impuestos por ambos aunque sus ingresos sólo sean de cuarenta coronas. "A pesar de la actitud satírica de Voltaire hacia los industriales ricos defendió el bien económico. En <em>"Le Mondain"</em> 1736 y <em>"La Défense du Mondain" </em>1737 propuso una filosofía de vida personal deseable y como medio para asegurar prosperidad nacional." Este ejemplar publicado el mismo año que la edición original de Ginebra. La obra fue lo suficientemente controvertida como para que el Parlamento lo condenara y ordenara su quema en 1768.</p> hardcover

1905Geneva: Cramer 1765-1768. Five volumes. A GORGEOUS COPY OF THE FIRST EDITION with ALL HALF-TITLES PRESENT of one of Voltaire's most important and fascinating works a haphazard collection of philosophical and literary pieces which clearly demonstrate the depth and scope of his genius. The original intention was to publish only three volumes and for that reason many bibliographers consider the first three volumes a complete work in itself although Voltaire continued until the 19th volume appeared in 1776. I offer here the first three volumes along with the next two. In his introduction to the third part Voltaire points out that some of the works which appear here had been published before but only incorrectly and incompletely. He goes on to assert that many of the other works originally printed alongside them and attached to his name were not in fact by him. His reason for publishing this collection therefore was to present a definitive and complete text of many of his most important works many of which are printed here for the first time. Included are his commentary on Beccaria his Traite sur la tolerance with documentation that had not previously been published and dozens of other pieces. Volume 3 is complete with the supplement which is often missing. Due to their subversive nature they all ended up on the Catholic Church's Index of Prohibited Books these books were published without the name of the author the name of the publisher or the place of publication. Due to their popularity they were reprinted by Cramer and mercilessly pirated by other publishers. Most sets are mixed with different printings by different publishers. The volumes I offer here however are first printings throughout. Nicely printed on fine laid paper with numerous head- and tailpieces. 8vo. Bound in very attractive contemporary half French calf and decorated boards spines in six compartments leather spine labels. Minimal traces of wear to corners else fine and bright with large margins and no defects inside or out. Bengesco 2212; B.N. vol. 214 part I columns 82-86; Barbier III 531-532. A very rare and important set in contemporary bindings and in excellent condition. <br/><br/> Geneva: Cramer, 1765-1768 hardcover
