Woodcut device emblematic of the French Republic to the title page. 62pp. A good copy with nibbling/loss to the top left-hand corner not affecting the text and a few minor marks to the title page and rear blank verso. The contents remain clean and in very good order. A scarce provincial printing of the Constitution of the Year III Constitution de l'an III the constitution of the French First Republic which established the Directory regime following the fall of Robespierre.</p><p>Adopted by the convention on 5 Fructidor Year III 22nd August 1795 and approved by plebiscite on 6th September its preamble formed the Declaration of the Rights and Duties of Man and of the Citizen of 1789. Largely the work of political theorist Pierre Daunou it established a bicameral legislature made all taxpaying French males over 25 eligible to vote in primary elections enfranchising around one million more citizens than the 1791 Constitution and contained an explicit ban on slavery.</p><p>It remained in effect until the coup of 18 Brumaire 9th November 1799 which effectively ended the Revolutionary period and began the rise to power of Napoleon Bonaparte. </p><p>A pleasing unsophisticated copy remaining in the same form as it would have been when it reached the hands of ordinary Frenchmen in year that it was issued.

179276952Paris 1792. First French edition of the 1787 Federal Constitution in addition to the thirteen state constitutions the Declaration d'Independance Articles de Confederation; and several treaties. . old marbled wrappers with ms. paper labels on spines preserved in a utilitarian portfolio. . This was Kenneth Nebenzahl's copy with his book label inside the portfolio. An uncut copy in very attractive original condition. 8vo. Howes C-716. Translated and published at the suggestion of Benjamin Franklin who likely contributed footnotes. He wrote in late 1783: "The extravagant Misrepresentations of our Political State in foreign Countries made it appear necessary to give them better information which I though could not be more efectually and authentically done than by publishing a Translation into French." unknown
1795NS0005Paris L'An 3 de la Republique Française une & indivisible. Hard Cover. 8vo; 56 pages a-c8 d4. Dated p. 56: 5 Fructidor l'an troisième i. e. 22 Aug. 1795. Signed p. 56 by Chenier président; Dersey Solignac Bernier Laurenceat Dentzel Quirot sécrétaires. The French Convention Nationale 1792-1795 had governed without a constitution. That of 1791 had been replaced by a more radical one of 1793 which was never activated. "The post-Robespierrist Convention continuing the reaction against popular revolutionism. elements of direct democracy that had characterized the earlier constitution were abandoned but the new one preserved the basic changes brought by the Revolution" see R.R. Palmer <i>Age of Democratic Revolution</i> 2: 214. This edition seems to be unrecorded. It is signed by the members of the committee that drafted it chaired by playwright Marie-Joseph Chenier 1764-1811. The edition seems to be an attempt to persuade people to accept its terms. This Constitution was rejected by even more reactionary elements and led to establishment of the Directorate in October 1795. Not in NUC; not in Martin & Walter cf. 4: 2: 4140.

1795WRCAM11233Philadelphia: Printed and sold by Benj. Franklin Bache 1795. 59pp. Modern half morocco and marbled boards. Minor tanning to text. Very good. The events of the French Revolution were followed with the keenest interest in America. As the excesses in France grew American reaction split along emerging political lines with the Federalists expressing revulsion while the Democrats were more supportive. The French Constitution of 1793 collapsed with the end of the Terror and this new constitution which created the Directory was instituted. This is the first American edition in English of that new constitution published by the Democratic grandson of Franklin Benjamin Franklin Bache. Bache also published an edition in French the same year. It would have keenly interested the politicians of that year both from a party and foreign relations viewpoint. The NUC locates eight copies.
