In 12° (15,7x9,5 cm); (14), 354 (i.e. 344) pp. Bella legatura coeva in meza pelle con titolo su fascetta al dorso. Dorso a 4 nervi. Piatti foderati con bella carta spruzzata. Tagli rossi. Manca forse la prima carta (bianca?) posta alla sguardia. Prima edizione della "Premier Avertissement" (seguirono anche un secondo ed un terzo "avertissement") del celebre ecclesiastico e teologo francese Jean-Joseph Languet de Gergy e che fu anche vescovo dell'importante diocesi di Soissons. L'opera entra a fondo nelle polemiche che seguirono alla pubblicazione della bolla papale Unigenitus. La bolla papale era diretta contro l'opera del più famoso giansenista dell'epoca, Pasquier Quesnel. Nel novembre del 1711 il re Luigi XIV per sedare i contrasti fra i giansenisti (già dichiarati eretici) ed i fedeli alla dottrina di Roma, domandò al papa una nuova bolla (ma rispettosa delle libertà gallicane) che egli stesso si impegnava a far pubblicare. L'8 settembre 1713 usciva la bolla Unigenitus che condannava 101 proposizioni estratte dal libro di Quesnel. Ma in Francia le cose non andarono come il re desiderava. Il Noailles e altri 48 prelati si rifiutarono di accettare semplicemente ed immediatamente la bolla di Clemente XI, e nemmeno accettarono di partecipare ad un sinodo nazionale per confermare la bolla. Nel frattempo moriva Luigi XIV e il debole periodo di reggenza che ne seguì fu tutto a vantaggio degli oppositori. Quattro vescovi, il Noailles e la Sorbona si appellarono ben presto ad un concilio ecumenico contro la bolla. Ormai la Francia era divisa in due: gli appellanti e coloro che avevano accettato la bolla Unigenitus. Davanti alla possibilità di uno scisma, nel 1718 Clemente XI, con la bolla Pastoralis officii, scomunicava tutti gli appellanti e confermò tutti i documenti già promulgati contro il giansenismo. Con la morte nel 1719 del Quesnel e nel 1729 del Noailles, il giansenismo francese perdeva definitivamente vigore. Nel 1730 la bolla Unigenitus divenne legge di Stato. A parte la mancanza della carta di sguardia (probabilmente bianca) l'opera si presenta in buone condizioni di conservazione.

178824836Boston MA 1788. No binding. Condition: Fine. Massachusetts Centinel illustrator. Newspaper. Massachusetts Centinel February 13 1788 Volume VIII pp. 171-174. Boston: Benjamin Russell. 4 pp. 9 5/8 x 14 7/8 in. This newspaper is replete with Constitution-related content including minutes from the debates of Massachusetts' State Ratifying Convention - everything from discourse on standing armies to Fisher Ames' hearkening back to 1775 with "WE MUST UNITE OR DIE"; a poem to Washington on his birthday; a fictional dialogue The Federal Anti-Federalist Returned to His Neighbours; a rare example of one of Benjamin Russell's famed 'Pillars' illustration series; and a great deal of reporting on the popular reception of the news of ratification expressed in particular by an enormous parade and surrounding celebrations. The Massachusetts Centinel employed the Federal Pillars political imagery to announce the ratification of the Constitution by successive states. In this issue the Centinel announces the pending ratification by New Hampshire. "This day the Convention of the State of New Hampshire meet at Exeter for the purpose of erecting another PILLAR to support the great Federal Superstructure; by ratifying the proposed Constitution." On February 6 1788 Massachusetts ratified the United States Constitution by a vote of 187 to 168 the sixth and largest state to do so. Two days later the people of Boston engaged in a grand procession led by the "Mechanicks" and Tradesmen of Boston "to express their approbation of the conduct of the Gentlemen who represented this town in the late Convention" p3/c2. A sampling of the groups of marchers most of whom carried implements and tools of their professions festooned for the occasion as detailed here p4c1-2: 73 Blacksmiths; 43 Shipwrights; 75 Rope-makers with part of a rope-walk on a sled and martial music; 30 Mast-makers; 36 Sail-makers; 34 Ship-joiners; 30 Block-makers pulley makers; 6 Mathematical Instrument Makers makers of navigation equipment etc.; 53 Coopers; 20 Boat-builders; 6 Pewterers; 40 Bakers 50 Shoe-makers; 56 Taylors; 26 Hatters; 20 Ship-builders; 136 Carpenters; 70 Masons; 30 Wheelwrights; 15 Printers; as well as a dozen other tradegroups such Bookbinders; Goldsmiths and Jewelers Saddlers Tobacconists Tanners Curriers Leather-dressers Cabinetmakers Carvers Painters Tinsmiths Coppersmiths and 250 of the "principal merchants in the town." Toward the middle of this assemblage thirteen horses pulled the ship "FEDERAL CONSTITUTION" manned by a crew of thirteen. A subtext of much of this was an emphasis on domestic manufactures as well as a celebration of Boston's power and potential in maritime trade.At this event "WE THE PEOPLE" of Boston "in GRAND PROCESSION MOVING" passed an ordinance to rename Long Lane as Federal Street in commemoration of the site where the convention had sat. The ordinance concluded "GIVEN under our auspices.the FIRST YEAR of OUR real political federal existence.GOD SPEED THE CONSTITUTION!" p1/c1. That night a long boat called "the Old Confederation" which had been exhibited during the parade was drawn to the Common and condemned "as unfit for any further service." The boat was immediately burned "in presence of an applauding concourse of citizens" p3/c2. On February 12 the twelve delegates who represented Boston in the ratifying convention including John Hancock and Samuel Adams responded to the procession in a letter to "the Committee of Tradesmen of the Town of Boston." Excerpt: "We endeavoured that our conduct in the late Convention should be governed by the magnitude of our subject:-And after the most mature deliberation we severally decided according to the best light of our understandings and the dictates of our consciences." "We are happy to find that our decisions have so fully corresponded with the sentiments and wishes of our constituents."
