Rare autograph inscription by Marie-Anne Paulze Lavoisier to Joseph Louis de Lagrange prominent mathematician and loyal friend to Antoine Lavoisier. Valuable record of the leading role played by Marie-Anne Paulze Lavoisier in the chemical revolution at the dawn of the French Revolution. Phlogiston theory emerged at the end of the 17th century conceived by Johann Becker and developed by Georg Ernst Stahl postulating the existence of a flame element inherent in combustible bodies and released during combustion. This hypothesis was completely refuted by Lavoisier who revealed the role of oxygen in the combustion process thus inventing the theory of oxidation. Irritated by Lavoisier's skepticism with regard to phlogiston theory the eminent Irish chemist Richard Kirwan published this text titled Essay on Phlogiston. . The French chemists who rallied around Lavoisier decided to respond by translating An Essay on Phlogiston into French. Keiko Kawashima Madame Lavoisier et la traduction française de l'Essay on phlogiston de Kirwan in Revue d'histoire des sciences 2000. This text far from being a simple translation of Kirwan's work adopted the form of a manifesto in itself in which the greatest chemists of the day contested phlogiston theory dissecting its advocates' arguments one by one. The huge success of the French translation led Kirwan to attempt to refute the objections of Lavoisier and his collaborators. In 1789 he published a second edition of his work translating the French notes written by its detractors into English and adding his own refutations. He finally converted to the ideas of the anti-phlogisticians the founders of modern organic chemistry. Marie-Anne Pierrette Paulze Mme Lavoisier played a key role in the career of her husband who taught her chemistry at her request; she then became his assistant recording the experiments he carried out and their results. She very quickly took on a role that went beyond that of the devoted wife becoming a translator but also a writer: many of the notes in the Essai sur le phlogistique were written by her. At the height of her involvement it was she in her capacity as a skilled illustrator who drew all the plates in Traité élémentaire de chimie 1789 appending her signature Paulze Lavoisier Sculpsit on this occasion. This specimen includes a rare autograph inscription by the translator Mme Lavoisier to Joseph Louis de Lagrange 1736-1813 one of her husband's closest friends. It was Lavoisier who aroused the interest of Lagrange in the new science of chemistry. Together they participated in the development of a metric system that standardized weights and measures which came to light during the Revolution. Working for the revolutionary government Lagrange had more opportunities than his chemist friend who was executed as a victim of the Terror. When he learned that Lavoisier had been killed at the guillotine the mathematician declared: It took them only an instant to cut off Lavo S. n. hardcover
