OCLC 1063428053 "THE BENEFITS AND PRIVILEGES OF CUCKOLDS Shewing the little Disgrace there is in being one and the Obligations Men sometimes have to their Wives for conferring that Honour upon them in what Manner soever it is done either as Prudes Coquettes Domines or Writing Desks. The whole beautifully illustrated with several late notable Intrigues that have been carried on in many Parts of the Beau-monde." The purported author: Eustache Le Noble 1643 – 1711 was a 17th-century French playwright and writer. An attorney General at the Parlement of Metz Le Noble led a dissipated life and after he had been condemned for having manufactured false acts he was jailed at the Conciergerie where he fell in love with Gabrielle Perreau la Belle Épicière who was also imprisoned.

The prose is clear incisive and frequently cut with verses which are not without merit. . (J. Gay) paperback

187441043Paris: Firmin Didot 1874. Fine. Firmin Didot Paris 1874 20 x 29.70 cm relié Fifth edition statement. Edition illustrated with 19 chromolithographs and 400 wood engravings. Publisher's binding in imitation of great Grolier-style bindings. Half dark green shagreen with shagreen-textured cloth boards. Corners slightly bumped. Very occasional light foxing. The interest of this work manifests itself both through its erudition and its accessibility and readability historical anecdotes. We owe it to Paul Jacob who was a great bibliophile a writer and scholar and the curator of the Arsenal library. If the entire series has become a great classic in the field it is because it successfully combines the work of publisher printer bookbinder historian illustrators and documentation and few books have ultimately achieved this amalgamation that we owe to Firmin-Didot at a time when books had become quite mediocre.

1831666311831. Lehrb. Chem. 4/1. - Aus dem Schwedischen übersetzt von F. Wöhler. - Dresden in der Arnold'schen Buchhandlung. 1831 8° 8 703 1 pp. Pappband d.Zt. First German Edition with the ExLibris von Johannes Büttner! Baron Jöns Jacob Berzelius 1779-1848 "was the first person to make the distinction between organic compounds those containing carbon and inorganic compounds. "Organische Chemie" Organisk Kemi. "Berzelius stated in 1810 that living things work by some mysterious "vital force" a hypothesis called vitalism. Vitalism had first been proposed by prior researchers although Berzelius contended that compounds could be distinguished by whether they required any organisms in their synthesis organic compounds or whether they did not inorganic compounds. However in 1828 Friedrich Wöhler accidentally obtained urea an organic compound by heating ammonium cyanate. This showed that an organic compound such as urea could be prepared synthetically and not exclusively by living organisms. Berzelius corresponded with Wöhler on the urea synthesis findings. However the notion of vitalism continued to persist until further work on abiotic synthesis of organic compounds provided substantial evidence against vitalism. " wiki In 1838 Jöns Jacob Berzelius became the first scientist to use the term "protein" a word that has become a cornerstone of biochemistry. "Wöhler is considered a pioneer of organic chemistry because of his synthesis of oxalic acid by hydrolysis of dicyan in 1824 and of urea from ammonium cyanate on 22 February 1828. These syntheses opened up the field of biochemistry as for the first time substances previously known only from living organisms could be artificially produced from "inanimate" matter. At first these in vitro syntheses were hardly noticed by chemists. With the increasing success of chemists in the field of organic synthetic chemistry however Wöhler's synthesis was seen as the beginning of this branch of chemistry and thus a "creation myth" of organic chemistry developed around the urea synthesis which can still be found today in many chemistry textbooks but also in historical accounts. "wiki "If one compares this work with Liebig's book the new path that Liebig took becomes clear. Berzelius had compiled the existing experimental material according to organs. Liebig on the other hand tried to present the large interrelationships of the processes in the living animal organism. Nutrition respiration the production of mechanical work and animal heat as well as the formation of the protein-rich "structures" of the body i.e. the tissues and organs are traced back to chemical processes and explained in their context."
