This feature is also noted for the set listed by COPAC for the National Trust copies. It is therefore not unique to this copy. The unaltered edition published by Gide is dated for 'an 7' of the Republic i.e. 1799. A Paris : chez Gide, Libraire, place Sulpice. 1780 [1799]. 2 volumes. 8vo. unknown

Ex-library with a small inkstamp to title page. A handsome copy. $1000. Reissue of the first edition in French published by the St. Petersburg Academy of Sciences for private distribution in 1769. This important text also known as the Nakaz or Instruction is a statement of legal principles written by Catherine II from 1764 and 1766. Permeated with the ideas of the French Enlightenment and copied mostly from the work of Voltaire Montesquieu and Beccaria it was compiled as a guide for the All-Russia Legislative Commission convened by the Empress in 1767 to create a new code to replace the 1649 Muscovite Code. Revised in consultation with Beccaria Frederick the Great and Voltaire the Instruction proclaimed the equality of all men before the law and disapproved of death penalty and torture. Unfortunately her proposed code was never completed. Catherine's manuscript was written in French and she later produced a Russian translation. Editions in German and Russian were published in Moscow in 1767. The book was initially banned in France because it was too liberal which is why the first French-language edition was produced in Switzerland with a false imprint. French and Latin editions were eventually published in 1770.
