1815168217London: for John Murray; 1815. A major contribution to rent theory First edition first issue presentation copy inscribed in a secretarial hand "from the author" on the title page. The pamphlet is the first expression of Malthus's view for which he is credited as among the founders of the classical theory of rent. "Together with the population principle the theory of rent was one of the chief ideas contributed by Malthus to the re-evaluation of Smith's political economy which took place during the first decades of the nineteenth century" Winch p. 349. Malthus developed the idea from his lectures while professor of history and political economy at the East India College. Its publication grew out of a private debate between Malthus and Ricardo. In response Ricardo expounded on Malthus's ideas and their synthesis was the basis of English thought on rent for the rest of the century. The second issue names J. Johnson and Co. in the imprint. Provenance: with the bookplate of the Dutch economist Arnold Heertje 1934-2020. Octavo 207 x 127 mm pp. iv 62. Twentieth-century pink paper boards red morocco label to spine.

19070His Majesty's Receipt of Exchequer London. 9 February no year . 1p. 8vo. In poor condition aged and worn with loss to edges and holing around the signature. Begins with manuscript text in square brackets: 'The -9 Day of ffebry <.> Received by me Daniel Malthus Execd as P Margin Of the Right Honourable Robert Earl of Northampton One of the Four Tellers of His Majesty's Receipt of Exchequer the Sum of Fifty Pounds .'. The annuity has been raised on 'Rates and Duties upon all Wines imported into Great Britain and for raising a certain Sum of Money for the Service of the year 1745'. According to T. R. Malthus's entry in the Oxford DNB his father 'being an only son of seven children appears to have inherited considerable wealth and property and these independent means enabled him to travel and to cultivate his literary artistic theatrical and scientific interests. He entered Queen's College Oxford in 1747 but did not graduate. He was an admirer of Rousseau who once visited The Rookery when Malthus was an infant. He was said to have published some literary pieces anonymously but the statement by an obituarist that he had translated works from French and German was firmly contradicted by Malthus. He supported the views of the marquis de Condorcet and William Godwin on the perfectibility of mankind but also encouraged his son's publication of opposing views. Aspects of his behaviour—for example the unconventional education he chose for Malthus and his refusal to allow his wife to wear her wedding ring—were regarded as eccentric and perhaps show the influence of Rousseau. He married on 6 May 1752 Henrietta Catherine Graham 1733–1800 his second cousin the daughter of Daniel Graham 1695–1778 apothecary to George II and George III. She can be seen as a young girl with her brother and two sisters in Hogarth's painting The Graham Children 1742 now in the National Gallery London. Malthus was the sixth of their seven children two boys and five girls. His Majesty's Receipt of Exchequer, London. 9 February [ no year ]. unknown
