Émile Boutmy was the founder of the École libre des sciences politiques which would later become the Institut d'études politiques de Paris now widely known as Sciences Po. Wrappers slightly toned at the margins inevitable minor edge tears and small losses consistent with the fragile nature of the pamphlet. Inscribed and signed by Lucien Lévy-Bruhl: ""A Emile Durkheim affectueusement L.L.B."" In January 1906 Lucien Lévy-Bruhl professor at the 'École libre des sciences politiques' since 1885 took up his pen to pay a final tribute to the director and founder of this prestigious institution Émile Boutmy. He sent a copy of his work – printed in a small number of copies – to his friend and collaborator Émile Durkheim. This exchange between two major figures of French sociology preceded a pivotal period for this field of study: that same year both were appointed professors at the Sorbonne University enabling sociology to gradually become an academic science Laurent Mucchielli Robert Crawford.  A rare inscription that brings together on the same leaf Lucien Lévy-Bruhl a faithful disciple of Durkheimism and its founder Émile Durkheim. Imprimerie Chaix unknown

As such the present work constitutes his earliest exposition of sociology as a science.Emile Durkheim 1858-1917 the father of sociology is credited with making sociology a science and established sociology as a recognized academic discipline. Together with Karl Marx and Max Weber he is considered the principal architect of modern social science. The present work which serves as the companion to his "The Division of Labour in Society" printed the year after in 1893 analyses Montesquieu's "Spirit of Laws" as a foundational work of modern sociology explains how Montesquieu's distinctions define the conditions and boundaries of sociology and how the work is the first to establish the main principles of political science. One of Durkheim's major contributions lies in his insistence on taking the total society as his theoretical frame of reference which is quite explicitly observed in the present analysis and explanation of Montesquieu. </em> hardcover
