Édition originale du recueil des quinze "cours révolutionnaires" organisés au sein de l'École polytechnique nouvellement crée, afin de propager auprès d’auditeurs venus de toute la France, les nouvelles méthodes de fabrication du salpêtre, de la poudre et des canons, fruit des recherches communes des signataires de ces cours. La rédaction est due à Guyton de Morveau. Contient deux séries de leçons. La première a pour titre de départ: "Cours révolutionnaire de la fabrication du salpêtre et de la poudre". La seconde: "Fabrication des canons de fer coulé". La première série compte neuf leçons, huit numérotées de 1 à 8, datées du 1er au 8 ventôse de l'an II [du 19 au 26 février 1794], suivies d'une dernière non numérotée, dite "supplémentaire" et datée du 19 ventôse de l'an II [9 mars 1794]. Si Lavoisier, emprisonné, ne put participer à ce travail, on y trouve sa marque à toutes les pages sans que son nom ne soit jamais cité. On y retrouve également ses trois co-auteurs de la 'Méthode de nomenclature chimique': Guyton de Morveau, Fourcroy et Berthollet. (Duveen, 'Bibliotheca Chimica', p. 486. Martin & Walter, 'Anonymes', 14623). Dos frotté. La page de titre est roussie et montée sur onglet, restauration à un coin de la page 1 avec de perte de trois mots reproduits à la plume.

17781465Paris: De l'Imprimerie Royale 1778. 1st Edition. FIRST EDITION LAVOISIER'S OFFICIAL EASTER MEMOIR ON THE COMPOSITION OF AIR. <br /> <br /> In this work Lavoisier proposed that ordinary air is composed of two different gases one "highly respirable" that he named "oxygen" and the other later named nitrogen that was unable to support combustion or respiration. This work is commonly referred to as Lavoisier's "Easter Memoir" because he presented an earlier version to the Academy around Easter of 1775; as this is the 1778 revised version historians regard it as Lavoisier's "official" Easter Memoir Wikipedia. We offer the 1780 edition separately.<br /> <br /> In April 1778 "Lavoisier read for a second time the memoir in which he had originally demonstrated in April 1775 that mercury precipitate reduced without charcoal disengages not fixed air but the ‘air itself entire' or ‘the purest portion of the air'. He made some revisions in the text that have attracted widespread attention from historians" Holmes Lavoisier 137. <br /> <br /> In the time between 1775 and 1778 Lavoisier repeated some of performed some new experiments of his own and repeated some of Priestley's. In the 1778 ‘official' version Lavoisier "altered the language in which he had described that air calling it now ‘the most salubrious the most pure portion of the air' and air ‘in an eminently respirable state'. Fastening on to this last phrase he again referred to the air later in his memoir as ‘eminently respirable air'. At the same time he deleted references to it in the original version as ‘common air' and eliminated the experimental description that it reacted to the nitrous air test in the same manner as common air. <br /> <br /> "Historians have tended to treat with suspicion the textual changes Lavoisier made. The implication seems to be that he sought to represent himself as having clearly understood in 1775 that the air released from the mercury calx is a specific portion of the atmosphere when in fact he had then still not distinguished it unambiguously from ordinary air. If one couples this suspicion with acceptance of Priestley's charge that Lavoisier had obtained the idea for the experiment from him in the first place then one creates an image of Lavoisier as one who is known to have had an ‘occasional tendency to allow the work of others to pass as his own'. <br /> <br /> "There is however no solid evidence that in making these changes he was attempting to rewrite history. His motivation was probably simple. By the spring of 1778 when his new theoretical edifice had solidified the experiments on mercury calx would have come to appear to him as one of the decisive experimental foundations on which he had erected it. Yet when he looked back on the paper which reported these experiments from the vantage point he had since attained the descriptions of the air he had identified in it would have appeared confused ambiguous and inconsistent. <br /> <br /> "The embarrassment of allowing such flaws to remain in what he could now anticipate might someday be regarded as a classic paper is obvious. Since the paper had yet to appear in the Memoirs of the Academy chronically two to three years late in publication he had a convenient opportunity to avoid that outcome" Holmes. <br /> <br /> ALSO INCLUDED: An important paper by P. S. Laplace introducing the concept of the "Coriolis effect" fifty years before Coriolis. Euler had also written about the effect in 1749.

63692Paris, 14 septembre 1793, l'an 2e de la République, , un billet de 180 x 130 mm, rédigé à l'encre brune, portant en-tête le cachet de minute notarial à l'emblème de la République et avec la devise "la loi le roi", , Intéressante pièce autographe du peintre Pierre-Joseph Redouté : elle témoigne de son activité de dessinateur scientifique et de ses relations avec deux des plus grands noms du monde des sciences et de la physique de la fin du XVIIIe siècle, Antoine Lavoisier (1743-1794) et Jean-Charles Borda (1733-1799), au sujet de l'élaboration du système métrique. En 1792, Redouté, qui passera à la postérité pour ses peintures de fleurs, est employé par l'Académie des sciences. Il signe ici une reconnaissance de paiement perçu de la part du très célèbre Lavoisier : "pour deux dessins que j'ai fait à Mr Borda relatifs aux opérations pour mesurer la longueur du pendule à seconde". Nous avons donc là une minute exceptionnelle, en lien avec l'une des dernières préoccupations de Lavoisier à la veille de son emprisonnement, le 24 novembre 1793, et de son exécution, le 8 mai 1794 : appelé par le gouvernement pour fixer les règles du nouveau système métrique, Lavoisier s'était adjoint l'aide du physicien et navigateur Jean-Charles Borda, rendu indispensable pour l'exactitude de ses opérations de pesage. L'importance de cette tâche était de taille : il s'agissait d'uniformiser le système des poids et des mesures dans l'ensemble de la France. Dans ces conditions, Lavoisier fut exceptionnellement autorisé, par délibération de la Commission le 28 frimaire An II (18 décembre 1793), à sortir de sa prison chaque matin accompagné d'un gendarme, pour continuer ses expériences. C'est Borda lui-même qui signa la délibération : "la présence permanente du citoyen Lavoisier, en raison de son talent particulier pour tout ce qui exige de la précision, est irremplaçable. Il est urgent que ce citoyen puisse être rendu aux travaux importants qu'il a toujours suivis avec autant de zèle que d'activité ". Bel état, en dépit d'un renfort marginal au revers et une petite déchirure de 2 cm, sans atteinte au texte. Couverture rigide

1890BL4107Paris:: Felix Alcan 1890. 1890. Series: Bibliotheque Scientifique Internationale LXIX. 8vo. xii 334 ads. 2 34 pp. Frontispiece; lightly foxed. Original blind and gilt-stamped maroon cloth; heavily rubbed silver-fish trainings. Good . "In 1889 to celebrate the centenary of the French Revolution Berthelot . . . was called upon to commemorate men of science. He prepared material for a lecture on Lavoisier and on the basis of this and Grimaux's study of 1888 he produced a book La revolution chimique Lavoisier. One detects special sympathy by the patriotic nineteenth-century French chemist for the eighteenth-century liberal who had also used his scientific knowledge to help his country. Berthelot's publication of extracts from the laboratory notebooks of Lavoisier which were in the possession of the Academy performed a valuable service to the history of science. Whatever criticisms may be leveled at Berthelot's earlier publications on the history of chemistry this study was an astonishing achievement" – DSB vol. II p. 64. Felix Alcan, 1890. hardcover books
