74685(Paris, Chez les auteurs), (1775), in-folio, 15 planches rehaussées, En feuilles, sous chemise et étui modernes, Quinze magnifiques planches provenant de l'ouvrage d'une extrême rareté Les écarts de la nature du couple Regnault, publié en livraisons à partir du début de l'année 1775 : chaque livraison trimestrielle comportait 10 planches ; les Écarts auraient dû compter des centaines de sujets de tératologie, mais il ne fut imprimé que quatre livraisons, soit quarante-deux planches en tout. L'ouvrage, devenu rare seulement quelques années après sa parution, fut réédité par Moreau de la Sarthe en 1808 (Description des principales monstruosités dans l'homme et dans les animaux. Paris, Fournier, 1808). Notre ensemble se constitue de 5 planches montrant des corps humains, intitulées: "Homme monstrueux - Enfant semy-acéphale ou sans cerveau - Double enfant à trois bras et quatre mains - Le petit pépin - Double enfant" et de 10 planches montrant des animaux: "Sanglier monstrueux - Chien monstrueux - Mouton à deux corps - Veau à deux croupes - Chat monstrueux - Mouton à quatre cornes - Porc double - Boeuf à cinq yeux et trois narines - Cochon cyclope de la Martinique - Poulet à quatre pates et quatre ailes." Chacune met en scène des monstres, non viables, arborant des attitudes précieuses et éloquentes, au milieu de décors champêtres et bucoliques. En pied de l'illustration, dans le travail de la gravure, des notices courtes apportent des informations sur la nature de la pathologie, l'histoire du spécimen et sa provenance. Il s'agit des seuls textes qui ont été rédigés pour accompagner les planches : les représentations des Écarts de la nature ont été conçues avec une visée artistique qui leur permet de valoir pour elles-mêmes. Les qualités du dessin et des rehauts de couleurs supplantent en effet tout discours étiologique, médical ou philosophique, ainsi que le remarquait, en 1775, le Mercure de France : "les vues de l'artiste ne tendent qu'à rendre les effets". Véritable tour de force éditorial, les Écarts de la nature se classent parmi les publications fastueuses produites au cours du XVIIIe siècle, mettant à profit les innovations de l'imprimerie et les nouvelles techniques de gravure : dans ce marché de luxe, qui répondait au goût du temps pour les riches publications de science illustrée, le couple Regnault était déjà connu pour son importante Botanique mise à la portée de tout le monde, parue en livraisons entre 1770 et 1774. Planches restaurées, quelques consolidations. Auréoles marginales sur plusieurs planches, feuilles uniformément jaunies. Mercure de France, février 1775, p. 183-188 ; Laidlaw, "Diderot's Teratology" dans Diderot Studies IV, 1963, p. 105-129 ; Curran et Graille, "Exhibiting the Monster" dans Eighteeth-Century Life, vol. 21, numéro 2, 1997, p. 16-22.

1600032381Paris: Marc Orry 1600 A good copy of the 2nd French edition of Joseph Acosta's important work on the New World first published in Spanish in 1590. Acosta was a Jesuit who spent 17 years in South America and Mexico. His work based on careful observation formed one of the first accounts of the New World. This copy is in probably contemporary full vellum binding with yapp edges. The original ties have gone. It is difficult to say if the binding was hard or soft cover because at some point in its history it has had an old stiff embossed wallpaper with gilt birds and flowers used to form new endpapers. There are no pages before the title page which has had a strip added at the bottom and which is coming loose. Contents: title page; dedication pp ii-iv; advert; poems 4pp; Extrait du Privilege du Roi 1p; Text in 7 books pp 1-375; table of contents 34 pp. The text pages are numbered on the recto only. With decorative head pieces and initial capitals. The text is very clean with just the occasional mark and some light underlining at p 238 but p 58 is missing. P 31 is mispaginated as p 13; p 267 is un-numbered and p 97 is very thin with a hole in the bottom margin. The final third of the book is quite difficult to open fully - probably because of the way the endpapers have been added. Marc Orry hardcover

The work became know as the Decretum for short thus signaling his intention to reconcile systematically contradictory statements of ecclesiastical law. He divided the rest of the Decretum into 36 causae cases each of which describes an imagined situation from which Gratian derived and discussed up to eleven legal questions. The first causa is devoted to simony the sin of selling ecclesiastical office. Causae 2-8 concern legal procedure while later causae treat ecclesiastical property and tithes monastic law oaths just war and heresy.

171962442à Paris: Par La Compagnie des libraires 1719. Fine. Par La Compagnie des libraires à Paris 1719 9 x 16 cm relié New edition after the first very rare published in 1670. Huet's Treatise on the Origin of Novels in the form of a letter to Segrais appears at the end of the first part of Zaïde. Armorial copy of Charlotte Emilie Le Fèvre de Caumartin de La cour de Balleroy daughter of Louis-François Le Fèvre de Caumartin lord of Boissy and wife of the Marquis de la Cour de Balleroy. Feminine arms are rare and sought after as few women formed libraries with their coat of arms. The Marquise de Balleroy who died in 1749 settled in Normandy and maintained an intense correspondence with the highest nobility from which she descended. Full speckled brown calf bindings. Raised band spines with decorative tooling. Morocco title labels in tan volume labels in speckled brown calf. Headcap of volume II split. A brown stain in corner of first 10 leaves of volume I gradually fading this stain recurring later spreading then disappearing. A browner area at edge of right corner of volume I on upper board. Despite some flaws a handsome copy. It is now considered that Zaïde was a collaborative work by Segrais and Madame de La Fayette whose Princess of Clèves would appear in 1678. Segrais was her secretary and it is thought that he provided the materials and historical research while Madame de La Fayette handled the entire writing. The action takes place in Spain in the 9th century. Consalve son of one of the greatest counts of Castile takes in Zaïde daughter of a Muslim prince following a shipwreck. Very quickly he falls in love with her but the two young people do not speak the same language. Par La Compagnie des libraires unknown
