In-4, broché, couverture papier bleu fort (rel. ancienne), (4), 80 p. Edition originale. Comme fonctionnaire au Bureau des Tailles d'Angoulême, Léonard Antoine du Tillet de Villars (1738-1809) fut l'un des premiers défenseurs de la nécessité d'établir un cadastre national, unique et centralisé afin de réformer l'impôt, sa répartition, le calcul de l'assiette et la perception, vers plus de justice fiscale. Le cadastre servira, par ailleurs, d'outil statistique pour mesurer de la richesse du royaume et de sa population et comme tel permettra d'évaluer les facteurs favorables à la puissance de l'Etat. Turgot qui ne partageait pas le point de vue centralisateur de Tillet du Villars le démît de ses fonctions. Cette étude constitua une source théorique de première importance pour Gracchus Babeuf, organisateur de la "conjuration des Égaux" et précurseur du communisme (cf. V. Daline, 'G. Babeuf', p. 110, 128 et 145). (INED, 1693. Kress, S.4977. Stourm, 'Finances de la France', p. 142). Bon exemplaire.
