Questo raro trattato di Saint-Simon 1720 -1799 descrive la coltivazione dei giacinti nell'Olanda dell'epoca ed è un quadro affascinante della competizione in atto nel produrre sempre nuove varietà di questi fiori. L'autore era egli stesso appassionato coltivatore e dopo essersi ritirato dalla carriera militare acquistò una fattoria vicino a Utrecht ritenendola ideale per i suoi progetti. Lo Hunt fa notare che l'opera diede un importante contributo allo sviluppo di queste coltivazioni e che annota oltre 2000 varietà il doppio di quelle conosciute prima della sua pubblicazione. Spellature cuffie restaurate; internamente fresco e puro con margini amplissimi. Doppio ex libris al contropiatto anteriore: G.K. Cowlishaw il grande collezionista australiano e di Thomas Westwood il poeta.

Paris: chez Antoine-Augustin Renouard 1821. Half-title TP i - xx = Preface half-title 3 - 311 blank leaf. Octavo. First Edition in original wrappers. <br /> <br />Saint-Simon's Socialism put forth in Du système industriel The Industrial System is the Socialism of equal opportunity rather than of equal wealth; the nation must be industrious but there will always be classes of the industrious and the idle for which reason there will always be hierarchies. Saint-Simon had no great faith in political democracy despite his agitation against social injustice including towards women; efficient administration of society by the industriels would ensure the governing of things and not people. This was the first collective appearance in book form of a series of pamphlets in the form of letters published individually in 1821 during the trial of their author for sedition of which he was acquitted. This volume contains the première and deuxième correspondences the first containing four letters to industrialists bankers manufacturers etc. the second containing six; both with additional letters and addresses to the king and to philanthropists. <br /> <br />CONDITION: Very good. As issued in publisher's purple marbled printed wraps chipped in places front joint detached at top else holding firm; paper label to spine chipped; Light spotting throughout.

Première édition complète établie sur la première fois sur le manuscrit complet. . On connaît l'histoire éditoriale tourmentée de ce monument de la littérature mémorialiste française : - Premiers fragments publiés dès 1788-1789 par Soulavie dans une version fortement altérée ; - Nouvelle sélection en 1818 expurgée de ses passages les plus critiques ; - Ce n'est qu'en 1829 sous l'impulsion de l'éditeur A. Sautelet qu'apparaît cette édition intégrale soigneusement établie d'après le manuscrit autographe conservé par la famille de Saint-Simon. Les 21 volumes paraissent en deux années à peine. Ces Mémoires couvrent les années 1691 à 1723 et plongent au coeur de la Cour de Versailles de la fin du règne de Louis XIV à la Régence; où le duc décrit les personnages de son temps le fonctionnement de la monarchie absolue les intrigues les petitesses et les grandeurs de la vie politique et aristocratique française. Cette édition de Sautelet qui fit découvrir Saint-Simon aux lecteurs du XIXe siècle : Victor Hugo en dira que Saint-Simon écrivait « à coups de canon » et Balzac le lisait comme une bible : on ne compte plus les écrivains historiens sociologues et moralistes qui ont vu dans ce texte l'un des sommets de l'intelligence politique.
