Ensemble de 2 ouvrages reliés en un volume in-12 (126 x 70 mm) , plein parchemin ivoire de l'époque. 1- Attribué par les contemporains à H. Estienne, ce pamphlet pourrait avoir été également composé par Th. de Bèze, Hotman ou R. de la Planche. "Pamphlet très violent, écrit pendant la régence de 1574 contre la 'tyrannie' et les 'vices' de Catherine de Médicis, histoire des guerres de religion où les responsabilités sont rejetées sur la reine. L'auteur, qui se donne comme un catholique modéré, semble être un huguenot apparenté au parti des Politiques" ('Sources de l'Histoire de France', 2240). (Cf. Renouard, 'Estienne', 142-143, n°8. Brunet, II, 751). 2- Recueil de pamphlets qui concernent autant Henri III qu'Henri IV. Contient : I- "Journal du règne de Henry III" [par Servin, avocat général au parlement de Paris].

[pamphlet très violent contre Marguerite de Valois attribué à P.-V. Palma Cayet]. IV- "La confession de M. de Sancy par L.S.D.A. auteur du Baron Feneste" [texte peu connu de Théodore Agrippa d'Aubigné].

Edition originale. Issu d'une famille de huguenots français réfugiés en Prusse, pasteur, professeur, journaliste, détenteur de la chaire de philosophie puis devenu doyen de l'Académie de Berlin, Johann Heinrich Samuel Formey (1711-1797) occupa une position clef dans l'Europe culturelle de son temps. Spécialiste et introducteur de Christian Wolff en France, défenseur modéré des Lumières, il fournit plusieurs articles à l'Encyclopédie (dont "Dieu") tout en entretenant des rapports parfois difficiles avec Voltaire et les Encyclopédistes. Cet ouvrage contient le recueil de vingt-deux essais philosophiques dont certains avaient paru séparément: la liberté, le sommeil, les songes ("l’un de ses écrits les plus remarquables"), le suicide, l'usure, la matière, le bonheur, les preuves de l'existence de Dieu, "la réformation de la justice", la "physique appliquée à la morale", etc. (Haag, V, p. 144, n° 54. Cf. E. Marcu, 'Un encyclopédiste oublié: J.-H.S. Formey'). Quelques brunissures et petites auréoles éparses. Bon exemplaire, bien relié à l’époque.
