In-8, broché, 7 p. Edition originale et unique. La découverture d'une médaille ancienne (vers 1580) dans un jardin près de Grenoble et l'ensemble des symboles qu'elle comportait, renvoyaient prophétiquement, en cette année d'Assemblée des Notables (1788), à la nécessité d'une étroite union entre Clergé, Noblesse et Tiers état. Sur la médaille, les trois ordres (Clergé - Noblesse - Plèbe / Concorde) sont représentés autour d'une colonne qui, s'ils venaient à se séparer serait renversée. Sur la colonne repose un Dauphin couronné, sous la devise "Hominum Amator": l'Ami des Hommes. Les deux faces de la médaille sont reproduites page 7. Parue sans nom d'auteur, la brochure est sans doute due à Letourneau qui avait consacré à cette médaille un article dans les "Affiches du Dauphiné" du 21 nov. 1788, p. 2. (Conlon, 'Siècle des Lumières', 88:3455 qui identifie l'auteur. 'Répertoire des sources de la numismatique française', 1889, II, n°4025. Maignien, 'Bibliographie du Dauphiné pendant la Rév. Française', n°281). Très rare. Manque à la BnF qui ne possède qu'un fac-similé. Bon exemplaire, non rogné.
In-4, demi-basane de l'époque, dos à 4 nerfs (lég. frotté), (2) f., [iii]-xx, 215, (1) p., 15 tableaux dépliants. Edition originale et unique de cet ouvrage d'inspiration physiocratique. Après avoir servi dans les armées du roi et obtenu la concession de terres agricoles dans l'Isle de France (île Maurice), Heurtault de Lamerville s'intéressa aux problèmes financiers que rencontrait la France. Il formule, dans cet ouvrage, des solutions originales à travers un plan de restructuration du système financier et fiscal et la libération des dettes de l'Etat. Il critique les impôts directs et indirects et propose, en remplacement, un impôt territorial, une taille réelle et une "subvention générale". Le dispositif est fondé sur l'instauration d'Assemblées provinciales qui assureraient la perception et la répartition de l'impôt. Mirabeau, Turgot, Le Trosne, Condorcet auront les mêmes objectifs concernant les Assemblées provinciales. (Einaudi, 3185. Goldsmiths, 13642. INED, 2556. Kress, B.1437. Weulersse, 'La physiocratie à l'aube de la Révolution', p. 432). Très bon exemplaire, imprimé sur vergé fort, grand de marges.

Volume in folio, legatura posteriore in mezza pelle, sguardie, occhiello, frontespizio, dedicatoria, secondo occhiello, prefazione, XV pp., 1416 colonne (708 pp.), bianca. Capitale raccolta degli atti e dei documenti delle Assemblee legislative costituite nel Regno sabaudo nell'arco di tre secoli, cinque anni dopo sarà stampata la seconda parte dell'opera che riguarderà gli anni dal 1561 al 1766. Suddivise per regioni e per epoche storiche, si trovano in questa colossale opera i rescritti e le decisioni che costituirono l'impianto legislativo della vita comune nel Regno sabaudo. Un esame che dà immediato risalto alle assonanze e dissonanze fra le varie comunità, i tentativi di definire, dopo la legislazione longobarda, un proprio Corpus giuridico su cui fondare il vivere comunitario. Una miniera immensa di notizie e di fatti che creano essi stessi la Storia, con la possibilità di seguire il cammino prima incerto poi sempre più spedito con cui, da un agglomerato di singole istanze di piccoli paesi, si arriva alla definizione di uno Stato unito e forte. Assolutamente poco comune e di difficile reperimento si presenta quest'opera pur con qualche difetto: il primo fascicolo slegato, una traccia di bruciatura (senza mancanza) al margine bianco superiore delle prime 15 carte, inoltre una fastidiosa fioritura della carta che dalle prime pagine va man mano diminuendo, limitandosi già dalla trentesima al solo margine interno bianco, fino a scomparire del tutto, lasciando il volume immacolato per il restante tre quarti. Importante.
Brossura softcover dalla copertina monocolore, plastificata e flessibile, leggermente indebolita nei toni e segnata da comuni sgualciture da conservazione, l'interno del volume mostra un rinforzo della fresatura con spille metalliche e carte imbrunite dal tempo, in ottime condizioni di conservazione e di fruibilità, testo in lingua francese.
