Abraham Swan's extensive two volume study of domestic architectural designs 'A Collection of Designs' bound here with his seminal work on staircases 'The British Architect . ' .The two volume 'Collection of Designs' - the second of three pattern books published by Swan a carpenter and joiner - was his attempt to provide an inexpensive pattern book of inexpensive designs. Swan made his intentions of quantity over quality clear in his Preface: 'I hope that whatever defects may be observed in any of them will be candidly excused considering what a number of designs are contained in these two volumes and that they are all of my own contriving and drawing.' 'The first volume contains 4 engravings of the staircase at Blair Castle Perthshire which Swan designed for the Duke of Atholl 1757. Two Chinese Bridges for the grounds at Blair appear in the second volume. Swan's designs belong to the 'rococo' taste popular in the mid-18th century'. Weinreb.Swan's comprehensive work 'The British Architect' - first published 1745 here in the 3rd edition - was destined to be the first architectural book published in America. The title page of the earlier edition described the author as 'Abraham Swan Carpenter' later changed to 'Abraham Swan Architect.' The work includes the following: 'I. An easier more intelligible and expeditious Method of drawing the Five Orders than has been hitherto been published by a Scale of Twelve equal Parts free from those troublesome Divisions call'd Aliquot Parts. Shewing also how to glue up their Columns and Capitals.II. Likewise Stair-Cases those most useful ornamental and necessary Parts of a Building though never before sufficiently described in any Book Ancient or Modern; shewing their most convenient Situation and the Form of their Ascending in the most grand Manner: With a great Variety of curious Ornaments whereby any Gentleman may fix on what will suit him best there being Examples of all Kinds; and necessary Directions for such Persons as are unacquainted with the Branch.III. Designs of Arches Doors and Windows.IV. A great Variety of New and Curious Chimney-Pieces in the most elegant and modern Taste.V. Corbels Shields and other beautiful Decorations.VI. Several useful and necessary Rules of Carpentry; with the Manner of Truss'd Roofs and the Nature of a splay'd circular Soffit both in a streight and circular Wall never published before. Together with Raking Cornices Groins and Angle Brackets described.'

1767D11183n.p. Berlin 1767. Hardcover. Very Good. 8vo 160 x 90mm. 4 363 1 pages. 18th-century mottled calf marbled endpapers and edges spine ends chipped scattered stains mostly marginal. Front flyleaf with contemporary French verse inscription Sur cet coteaux depouilles de verdure; je vois courir le lievre fuigtif et loiseau mort de froide accuse la nature and ownership inscription on title Elisabeth Lagravere. <br/><br/>French translation of Sulzers theory on the origins of pleasure following a Cartesian school of thought. Zurich native Johann George Sulzer was a well-established member of the Prussian Academy of Sciences and Belle-Lettres who published widely on the appreciation of art. Sulzers influence on aesthetic theory was well known within theoretical circles in late eighteenth century Berlin. Owing to the work of Descartes particularly his Passions of the Soul 1649 Sulzers work on the origins of pleasure aimed to initiate a move toward moral psychology and ethical theory within studies of the mind. Sulzer focused on the derivation of joy and gladness in the model of a Cartesian system; simply it opposed the idea of Hedonism which believed pleasure was the sole aim of humankind. Instead Sulzers theories supported a metaphysical experience within ones own cognitive condition. Sulzers work supplements the great accomplishment of many of his near contemporary theorists who contributed to the study of emotions Descartes Hobbes Malebranche and Spinoza. His work preceded that of Kants division of the mind into pleasure or pain and who with later Kant outwardly disagreed with the weakness of the proofs promulgated by Sulzer. Abraham Gotthelf Kästner was a German poet and mathematician also a devout Lutheran. He was known in his professional life for compiling and reflecting on content for textbook study. Kästner translated and revised this Sulzers theoretical work on pleasure showcasing his encyclopedic interests but remains better known for his contributions on the history of mathematics and his various epigrams. hardcover
