17921602090032Le Jay 1792-01-01. Third. Hardcover. Very Good. Bound in period French calf. Gilt spine and rule. Scuffed corners. All edges marbled. xl 336 pp. 20 cm. Good binding and cover. Internally very good slight tanning to a few pages. Honore Gabriel Riqueti comte de Mirabeau 1749-1791 was President of the National Assembly of France. Mirabeau was imprisoned intermittently after an altercation with a nobleman from 1774 until 1782. He was able to gain his freedom and defeat an impending death sentence through his oratory and legal acumen. This work An Essay on Despotism first published in 1775 helped establish Mirabeau as a powerful critic of the old regime. "Du fond d'un cachot le genie de la Revolution Mirabeau lance l'anatheme au despotisme et reduit celui qui se croit roi simplement parce qu'il est fils de roi a la condition d'un salarie que ses sujets peuvent remercier brutalement de ses services." Ch.L. Chassin. He was also an associate of the American Ambassador Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson who provided him with American pro-liberty pamphlets. Mirabeau played an import role in draft the 1789 "Declaration of the Rights of Man". As the revolution became increasingly radical Mirabeau attempted to divert it to a more moderate course in the mold of England's constitutional monarchy. His death in 1791 allowed for the more extreme elements of the revolution Robespierre to come to greater prominence. On this book Gazette Litteraire states: "C'est l'ouvrage le plus fort qui ait encore ete ecrit sur la matiere. Il fut compose durant les dernieres annees doppression du regne de Louis XV pour ranimer les restes d'une liberte mourante dont il depeint les injustices les vexations les atrocites avec une plume de fer."

A few brown spots on the title page of La Prise des annonciades. Illustrated with a vignette on the title page of Errotika. Collection written by Mirabeau imprisoned in Vincennes at the same time as the Marquis de Sade. Various curiosities are culled from ancient writings relating to sexual practices such as onanism tribalism sodomy nymphomania etc. : ""The author in addition to the talent of perfectly mastering ancient languages writes very well in his own joking lightly and often drawing on Voltaire's style: in the very dirty pictures he sometimes presents he always uses honest or technical expressions: besides he seems well versed in the art of voluptuousness"" contemporary 18th century review quoted in Gay-Lem. II 151. According to the legend the book was relentlessly censored by the authorities and only fourteen copies of the first edition had survived - an estimate which seems to be quite inaccurate. After a second edition in 1792 the book was prohibited and included in the papal index. Another edition was destroyed in 1826 by the Royal Court of Paris and two further prosecutions were brought in 1856 and 1868 for ""outrage à la morale publique et aux bonnes murs"". The text was notably published by Guillaume Apollinaire along with other writings by Mirabeau in his 1910 edition in the Bibliothèque des Curieux series. De l'imprimerie du Vatican hardcover

1783001533<p>Imprimerie du Vatican 1783. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Very Good. 32mo 5x 3.1inches pp263. Hardcover issued without dust jacket. Binding of black letter spine with decorative gilt titles over black boards in very good condition with some rubbing to edges. Inside all pages in very good condition with a little toning and the very odd spot of foxing. The book is in 11 parts each dealing with different sexual practices or perversions with titles in Hebrew or Greek: Anagogy; Anelytroid; Ischa; Toproid; Thalaba sodomy; Anandryne female homosexuality; Akropody circumcision; Kadhesch; Behemah bestiality; Anoscopy; Linguanmania nymphomania. Mirabeau wrote and published this work whilst imprisoned and sentenced to death for seduction during which time he met the Marquis de Sade who was also writing erotic works; however the two disliked each other intensely. The book was immediately banned and copies destroyed but the authorities could not stop the work being widely circulated. The preface of this copy states " 2 other manuscripts which have the same merit and which are both interesting; they will be completed to print within 2 months". An excellent copy of this notorious work from an equally notorious author. Very scare indeed. <br /><br /></p> Imprimerie du Vatican hardcover
