1748H4EC6J1929WLParis 1748. 12mo. printed for the widow of Estienne & her children and the Estienne brothers by the widow of F.A. Quillau and the widow of Simon Contemporary mottled calf richly gold-tooled spines and binding edges marbled edges; only volume 11 bound as 2 volumes with slightly different tooling mottling and title-labels; all unobtrusive differences making a closely matching set. With 3 engraved maps 2 engraved folding plates and 1 engraved folding plan. 13 volumes bound as 14. ca. 600 pp. per volume Lovely set in the original French of Rollin's very popular Histoire ancienne which contrary to its full title primarily describes ancient Greece the other ancient peoples are only treated in the first two volumes. It's a mixed set from three editions published by the Estienne family in nice closely matching bindings. After the first volume appeared in 1730 the series grew well beyond its initially planned five volumes and became tremendously popular appearing in numerous editions and translations well into the 19th century. Rollin organised a narrative closely based on a wide variety of ancient sources. While this copying was heavily criticized Rollin also distinguished himself with his concern for moral issues. "The prominent lens through which Rollin viewed history was that of virtue corrupted by power and this was the main approach that he tested in his Greek history. In the process moreover he carved and unprecedented space for Greek antiquity" Lianeri.The set is in very good condition with a few leaves browned and a few minor spots and stains. The binding only have some minor wear along the extremities and are also in very good condition.l Brunet IV col. 1360; Graesse VI p. 151; cf. A.

Charles Rollin January 30 1661- December 14 1741 was a French historian and educationist. He was born at Paris. He was the son of a cutler and at the age of twenty-two was made a master in the Collège du Plessis. In 1694 he was rector of the University of Paris rendering great service among other things by reviving the study of Greek. He held that post for two years instead of one and in 1699 was appointed principal of the Collège de Beauvais. Rollin held Jansenist principles and even went so far as to defend the miracles supposed to be worked at the tomb of François de Paris commonly known as Deacon Paris. Unfortunately his religious opinions deprived him of his appointments and disqualified him for the rectorship to which in 1719 he had been re-elected. It is said that the same reason prevented his election to the Académie française though he was a member of the Academie des Inscriptions. Shortly before his death he protested publicly against the acceptance of the bull Unigenitus. Rollin's literary work dates chiefly from the later years of his life when he had been forbidden to teach. His once famous Ancient History Paris 1730-38 and the less generally read Roman History which followed it were avowed compilations uncritical and somewhat inaccurate. But they instructed and interested generation after generation almost to the present day. A more original and really important work was his Traité des études Paris 1726-31. It contains a summary of what was even then a reformed and innovative system of education including a more frequent and extensive use of the vulgar tongue and discarded the medieval traditions that had lingered in France. .
