18564036Mexico City: Imprenta de Ignacio Cumplido 1856. Still very good. 17pp. Original printed wrappers bound into full calf front board gilt lettered. Some toning and scattered light foxing. This law was promulgated at the end of 1856 by the new liberal government of Mexico following its ascendancy in the mid-1850s and preceded the reform Constitution of 1857 by two months. Its statutes defined "crimes against the independence and security of the nation" including various forms of treason rebellion and foreign military service or assistance and made them punishable by death. The law anticipated conservative resistance and revolt against the new policies of the liberal faction that aimed to strip power and influence from the church and traditional aristocracy of the country. Their efforts indeed led to full-scale civil war in 1858 and the second French intervention in the early 1860s. OCLC locates a small handful of institutional copies and we locate just one in available sales records. Scarce and in attractive original wrappers. Imprenta de Ignacio Cumplido unknown

17292445<p><i>Folio 333 x 205 mm pp. 2 20 title-page in double ruled border E2 badly crumpled some light browning and a few pages a little dog-eared</i><i> uncut and stab-sewn as issued: generally a good copy in original state.</i></p><p>Issued as a parliamentary paper and ordered to be printed on 20th March 1729 this is one of three reports of the Committee set up to investigate the state of prisons. It was read and presented to the Commons by James Oglethorpe and was probably largely written by him. Oglethorpe was an important pioneer of prison reform whose name deserves to be remembered alongside that of his much better known successor John Howard.</p><p>The report shows that the Warden of the Fleet Prison disregarding the changes in the statute regarding the Fleet had continued to exercise 'an unwarrantable and arbitrary power' not only by charging exorbitant fees but by loading prisoners with chains in a manner more cruel and unjustifiable than that practised in the Star-Chamber. Money was extracted from prisoners at every opportunity: any prisoners who could not afford to pay for bedding were obliged to sleep on the floor in foul conditions and the warden would not attend to the forms necessary to discharge a prisoner unless he received the fees he demanded with the result that numerous prisoners were kept several years after they should have been discharged. </p><p>It was Oglethorpe's investigations into the state of prisons and his shocking findings that led him to study the social conditions of his day including unemployment and paved the way for his important Georgia Experiment a policy prohibiting the ownership of slaves in the Georgia Colony see Leslie F.

Ces "Considérations sur le Tiers-Etat" parurent avant l'œuvre célèbre de Sieyès qui s'y réfère (janvier 1789). Plus social, Rabaut traite des questions politiques et économiques. "Il réclame la liberté du commerce, la diminution et la simplification des impôts, la suppression de la réglementation industrielle et des barrières provinciales" (INED, 3694). Mais aussi, il est le premier à y développer la notion de "régénération" qui rencontra, dans la Révolution, le succès que l'on sait. (Goldsmiths'-Kress library, n°13742). Quelques pet. auréoles claires et petites réparation. Exemplaire bien relié.
184986600Boston: Bela Marsh 1849. First Edition. First printing. Octavo 18.5cm. Publisher's green embossed cloth titled in gilt; pale salmon endpapers; 414pp; mezzotint portrait frontispiece. A quite attractive copy just lightly rubbed to boards with a few scattered spots of foxing to text; solidly Very Good overall and somewhat uncommon thus. <br /> <br /> A significant if entirely idiosyncratic work in the annals of American radical reform as much a philosophical treatise as an autobiography. American pacifist freethinker feminist and abolitionist Henry Clarke Wright 1797-1870 though little remembered was among the most interesting radical voices of the mid-19th century a defrocked Presbyterian minister who in his adopted role as a "Christian reformer" preached against all established religions and adopted a thoroughly stridently contrarian voice in nearly every field of social reform he touched which was practically all of them. His views opposing established government put him directly in the line of such individualist anarchists as Lysander Spooner and Benjamin Tucker while his opposition to slavery was so uncompromising that he was ejected from the American Antislavery Society in 1837. He remained closely associated with most of the New England radical abolitionist community however especially with William Lloyd Garrison with whom he frequently collaborated. <br /> <br /> Like most of Wright's commercially-issued works this one was published by the Boston radical publisher Bela Marsh known for disseminating works by fellow abolitionists and freethinkers during the antebellum period. 86600.
