1801S14204Paris :: Deterville An IX 1801. 1801. 8vo. 197 x 122 mm xxx 2 443 pp. Three folding engraved plates. Speckled edges; paper flaws in K2 and O5 affecting text. Quarter-bound in 19th century half calf over brown marbled boards raised bands gilt-stamped title and gilt-rules on spine. Housed in a custom folding chemise and red quarter morocco and cloth slipcase raised bands gilt rules and gilt-stamped titles; light shelf wear. PROVENANCE: Robert Honeyman's copy. 261 Second edition second issue. "An entirely different issue of the usual 'Seconde edition.' Deterville has reprinted the entire book with the errata corrected in the text and the plates re-engraved by Tardieu l'aine Rue de Sorbonne No. 385. In the original edition the engraver had been de la Gardette who incidentally engraved Lavoisier's bookplate. The half-title with the titre de relais is present as before. The remark which appears at the end of the prior issue 'Le Privilege du Roi se trouve aux Memoires de l'Academie Royale del Sciences' is here omitted." Duveen & Klickstein. / This is Lavoisier's first major work. In this work on combustion and calcination which first appeared in 1774 Lavoisier first published his investigations into the nature and properties of gases in connection with numerous experiments and laid the basis of his antiphlogistic theory. Lavoisier gives a history of gases and a detailed account of his experiments. It was in this pioneer work that he broke ground that was new to him and asserted himself on an important question that was in controversy. The Opuscules one of Lavoisier's four major works resulted from his study on combustion and experiments with phosphorus and sulfur and the conversion of calces into metals. The work consists of a historical section and an introduction on gases; the second part describes his experiments dealing with the problems of combustion calcination and air fixation. / "Although Priestley isolated oxygen it was Lavoisier who discovered its real significance. He showed the true nature of the interchange of gases in the lungs and exploded Stahl's phlogiston theory." Garrison and Morton. / A native Parisian Lavoisier was one of the most important scientists of the 18th century. Because of his loyalty to the Ancien Regime Lavoisier fell into disfavor with the ruling National Assembly. He and his father were both arrested on 24 December 1793 tried on 8 May 1794 and executed by guillotine the same day. As the apocryphal story goes Lavoisier appealed at his trial for time to complete some scientific work at which the presiding judge replied "The Republic has no need of scientists." Authentic however is the remark attributed to Lagrange the day after Lavoisier's execution: "It took them only an instant to cut off that head and a hundred years may not produce another like it." / The half-title reads: "Cet ouvrage a l'exception des tables fut imprime pendant la detention du citoyen Lavoisier. Il ne faut donc pas etre surpris si l'edition n'en est pas belle ; on se rappelera sans peine qu'a cette epoque les matieres premieres manquoient pour l'impression. trans.: "This work with the exception of the tables was printed during the detention of Citizen Lavoisier. One should not be surprised if the edition is not beautiful; one will note without sorrow that this impression is without the errors of the first edition. ".

thl50Paris: Deterville 1801. Second i.e. Third Edition of Lavoisier’s first major work. It was originally intended to consist of a series of volumes but only this first was ever published. The first part contains an historical review of the experiments with gases of Lavoisier's predecessors while the second records Lavoisier’s own experiments that he had carried out in 1773. “These experiments confirmed Lavoisier's suspicions that air or some constituent of air played an important role in the processes of combustion and calcination.†DSB p. 74 “Remarkable for his versatility as scientist and public servant Lavoisier was first of all a chemist of genius justly remembered for his discovery of the role of oxygen in chemical reactions and as the chief architect of a reform of chemistry a reform so radical that he himself spoke of his early on as a “revolution†in that science.†Ibid. p. 66 Duveen p. 342. cfHoneyman 1933.

1801866Paris: Chez Deterville 1801. Second edition. <br /> <br /> A significant early collected work by Antoine-Laurent Lavoisier the founder of modern chemistry bringing together a series of his shorter but influential papers on physics and chemistry. Opuscules Physiques et Chimiques reflects the transitional moment in late 18th-century science when experimental chemistry began to replace older speculative systems. The volume includes studies on elastic fluids gases combustion fermentation and chemical decomposition illustrating Lavoisier’s role in redefining chemical processes through quantitative experimentation and precise observation.<br /> <br /> This 1801 second edition is particularly notable for its historical context: as stated in the prefatory note the work was printed during Lavoisier’s imprisonment amid the French Revolution shortly before his execution in 1794. As such the book stands not only as a scientific milestone but also as a poignant artifact of Enlightenment science disrupted by political upheaval. The inclusion of engraved folding plates depicting experimental apparatus underscores the practical and experimental nature of the work offering insight into early laboratory techniques that helped establish modern chemical methodology.<br /> <br /> Condition & Binding: Bound in contemporary full calf with an elaborately gilt-decorated spine and a central gilt armorial device on the boards likely institutional or academic possibly French reading “Collegium Lugdunense†or similar. Spine with gilt compartments and red morocco title label; some rubbing and wear to extremities including minor loss at head of spine. Boards show scuffing and surface wear but remain solid and attractive. Internally text is generally clean with light to moderate foxing and toning throughout. Overall- very good.

Lavoisier here gives a résumé of some ten years' experimental farming at Fréchines. He points out that contemporary customs leave the tenant farmers barely enough to live on and he pleads for a more tolerant and generous attitude from the landowners towards the farmers and for a less onerous burden on the later in so far as taxation concerned.

1819123040Paris: Madame Huzard 1819. Second edition first 1791 of Lavoisier's most important contribution as an economist "a milestone in the history of economic science and national statistics and accounting" Poirier p. 266. The work was reprinted after the Terror to which Lavoisier famously fell victim in Collection de divers ouvrages d'Arithmétique politique 1797. "De la richesse territoriale. de France which was printed in 1791 by order of the National Assembly constitutes an extract from a larger work on which Lavoisier had been engaged since 1784 in an effort to complete and verify an analysis of national income undertaken by Dupont de Nemours. Lavoisier's main argument is that the monetary valuation of national income from different sources leads to double counting; that the only method exempt from such difficulties is that based on an estimate of annual consumption since exports and imports in France balance one another; and that in estimating consumption allowance must be made for the variation in the budgets of different social classes. Thus he estimated that the annual per capita income of the poorest families is from 60 livres to 70 livres but he set the value of average per capita income at 110 livres a figure admittedly similar to that of Quesnay in his Philosophie rurale 1763. The net national income computed by estimating the net revenue in the various branches of agriculture he put at only 1200000000 of which half goes to the treasury in the form of taxes and the rest constitutes the landowners' rent" ESS p. 200.
