17232353259London: Printed for Edmund Parker at the Bible and Crown in Lombard-Street 1723. Second Edition. Full-Leather. Fair/No Jacket. Signed by author. Second edition. Lacks front board and spine label some loss along edges of rear board and spine leather dry and rubbed title page loose with some loss along edges. 1723 Full-Leather. vi 428 11 pp. Full calf with hand-tooled design five raised spine bands. A collection of essays including discussion of the origin of moral virtue the nature of charity and society etc. The work comprises a satirical poem entitled The Grumbling Hive: or Knaves turn'd Honest which was first published anonymously in 1705; a prose discussion of the poem called 'Remarks'; and an essay An Enquiry into the Origin of Moral Virtue. In 1723 a second edition the one offered here was published with two new essays 'An Essay on Charity and Charity-Schools' and 'A Search into the Nature of Society'. In the original portion of the work Mandeville controversially asserts that self-interest is the lynchpin of a properly functioning society and that practicing honesty and virtue while objectively desirable in practice leads to negative outcomes. His theories influenced Scottish Enlightenment thinkers like Francis Hutcheson David Hume and Adam Smith as well as economic constructs like the division of labor laissez-faire capitalism etc. Mandeville also wrote A Treatise of the Hypochondriack and Hysterick Passions which Garrison-Morton 10703 describes as: "Probably the first psychiatric self-help book. Hunter and Macalpine call Mandeville's work 'the first book on minor mental maladies 'writ by way of Information to Patients' rather than 'to teach other Practitioners'. Mandeville gave a graphic account of his own attack of melancholy when he developed the delusion that he had syphilis' Hunter & Macalpine p. 296.

elala3545London: Printed for J.Tonson 1732-33. Sixth Edition of Vol. I; Second Edition of Vol. II. Mandeville’s most famous and controversial work in which he advanced the view that virtue derives from the practice of selfish instincts and that the public prosperity is dependent upon private vices. His original intention was probably to satirize the political state of England in 1705 when the Tories were accusing Marlborough and the ministry of advocating the French war for personal reasons. The ironical nature of his commentary on the hypocrisies of artificial society was overlooked by his contemporaries and the Fable was widely attacked and condemned notably by Bishop Berkeley Francis Hutcheson and Archibald Campbell.

1728002792<p>London: Tonson 1728. Un volume 205 cm di 7-477 pagine; è presente sia la numerazione araba che la segnatura A-Z8 Aa-Gg8 Hh7. Legatura coeva in piena pelle con decorazioni impresse. Difetti alla legatura cerniera anteriore fenduta usure agli angoli dei piatti piccole mancanze alle cuffie e qualche usura ala dorso. Minime tracce del tempo alle pagine interne qualche lieve brunitura o piccolissime fioriture una gora chiara alla pagina finale e alle seguenti due pagine bianche ma nel complesso buonissime condizioni interne. Titolo manoscritto in riquadro al dorso dove compare anche un 1 impresso e dorato di tomagione. Spesso infatti questa edizione si accompagnava con un secondo volume contenente lo sviluppo delle polemiche sollecitate dall'opera volume peraltro a sé stante e sovente di diverso stampatore. La prima edizione è del 1714 cui seguirono alcune ristampe. Nel 1723 apparve la 'seconda edizione' allargata. Altre aggiunte si ritrovano cinque anni dopo nella quinta edizione: nello stesso anno ne venne pubblicata un'edizione in due volumi. "Mandeville's central theme is that public benefits are the product of private vices and not of private virtues" New Palgrave. Una delle opere-chiave di tutta la storia del pensiero economico.</p> Tonson
