Un volume in 8° di (28)-806-(12) pagine. Piena pergamena del tempo, difettosa: una piegatura al dorso che coinvolge tutto il volume. Tracce di legacci. Gore chiare. Firma di appartenenza Girard 1652, con qualche nota e sottolineatura seicentesche - TERZA EDIZIONE del Tractatus (Einaudi 1684) - La firma di appartenenza Girard e le note sono probabilmente di Guillaume Girard, scrittore francese morto nel 1663, che fu amico e curatore delle opere di Balzac ed operò nella cerchia del duca di Eperon per il quale scrisse nel 1655 una "Histoire de la vie du Duc d'Eperon". Altra sua opera notevole: "Apologie pour M. de Beaufort contre la cour, la noblesse et le peuple".
First English Edition, engraved portrait frontispiece of De Witt, with the half-title on the recto, light damp-staining on lower margins of the first 8 leaves, with the 2 blank leaves at end, lvi, 492, [4] pp., contemporary panelled calf, spine gilt in compartments, slightly chipped at head and tail of spine, morocco label, a very good copy. This work is a translation of Court's "Aanwissing der heilsams politike Gronden en Maximen van de Republike van Holland", of 1699, which is in turn is an unauthorised revision and enlargement of his "Interest van Holland." of 1662. This translation wrongly attributes the work to Johan de Witt. The work had been circulated in manuscript and was published, without de la Court's permission, by de Witt "without doubt one of the greatest, if not the greatest statesman of his age"- Palgrave.

18217A Londres, et se trouve à Paris, Chez Dessain junior, 1767. (2), xii, 298 pp. 12mo. Contemporary marbled calf, spine gilt in compartments, label with gilt lettering, red edges, some light scratches, small repair to joint of rear cover, a fine copy. Kress 6453; Goldsmiths 10298; Einaudi 3048; INED 2349; Higgs 4197; Conlon 67:953; not in Mattioli. First (and only?) edition. The abbé Pierre Jaubert's opinions were more varied than those of Danguel and Plombaine, but similar in character. He accepted the opinion of Montesquieu, Forbonnais, and the agrarian writers that population tended to grow when men were assured the fruits of their labor and some comfort; and that failure to cultivate all available land, coupled with the great and inequitable tax burden was depressing agricultural production and retarding population growth. Therefore he advocated stimulation of the agricultural arts: protection of agriculturalists against their creditors; a redistribution of the tax burden; the use of idle urban workeers to perform the corvées; and restrictions upon the crop-destroying wild game which were raised and protected for the benefit of the nobility. He furthermore proposed that monasteries and nunneries be stripped of tax exemption and other privileges, he was critical, as were many writers, of the French hospital and penal system, he advocated an improved urban water supply, enlargement and frequent cleaning of the streets, daily filth removal, and the location of certain establishments (cemetries, tanneries, etc.) outside cities. Spengler considers his suggestions for the curtailment of celebacy and the counterbalancing of its effects, as most important. With his emphasis on agricultural arts he was in line with the Physiocrats (for a detailed analysis see: Spengler, French predecessors of Malthus, pp. 90-94). A very nice copy of a scarce and important work.
17305Paris, Chez Migneret, 1802. 3 volumes. x (misnumbered xii), 349, (1) pp.; (4), 322, (2) pp.; (4), 335, (1) pp. 8vo. Contemporary tree calf, spines gilt in compartments, red label and gilt lettering, gilt ornamental border on sides. Kress B.4568; INED 3230bis; not in Goldsmiths; not in Einaudi. First edition. The first volume deals with political science; volume two with population and economics, the colonies and slavery, agriculture and commerce; the third volume deals with finances, mendicity and prisons. The work was published on the occassion of the peace of Amiens with the hope of establishing a rapprochement between France and England. It is interesting to note that the absence of a commercial agreement with the peace of Amiens is considered to be one of the causes of its failure within little more than a year and that Mondénard deals with the subject of economics and commerce in relation to the peace of Amiens (see: Coquelin & Guillaumin, vol. 2, p. 199, and the Historical Dictionary of Napoleonic France, 1799-1815, p. 16).'Ouvrage principal de Mondénard. Celui-ci, émigré en Angleterre, le publia anonymement à son retour. Conservateur, farouche défenseur de la propriété et de la grande culture, il s'en prend aux excès de la Révolution mais accepte quelques-uns de ses principes. Idées justes, notamment sur les rapports entre la machine et l'emploi' (INED). - Some scribbling on half-title of first volume, handwritten name and date on title of first volume.

Five parts in one volume. Royal octavo. Pp. xvi, 392. Divisional title to each part. With full-page illustrations, some in colour, and text illustrations, tables. Index, publisher's catalogue. Set in Gothic type. Bound in later stiff wrappers with flaps, typed title-labels to cover and spine. In about fine condition (light coloured pencil annotation to 2-3 pages). Excellent copy. ~ Fourth edition. Published originally as two separate works, part I, II, III, and IV under the title "Die Verwirklichung des Rechtes auf den vollen Arbeitsertrag (.)" (1906); and part V under the title "Die neue Lehre vom Geld und Zins (.)" (1911). It appeared later as second edition in one volume with the title "Die natürliche Wirtschaftsordnung". English version, "The Natural Economic Order" translated from the 6th German edition by Philip Pye, appeared in 1929. Silvio Gesell (1862-1930), German businessman. Born in Belgium, Gesell emigrated to Buenos Aires, where he successfully engaged in business. In 1914 he returned to Germany and became, five years later, finance minister in the short-lived government of Bavaria. His ideas in "Die natürliche Wirtschaftsordnung" are a reaction against Marxian socialism. Keynes, in his "General Theory", gives much space to the book, and expresses his belief that the future would learn more from the spirit of Gesell than from that of Marx. (Mai, P. 95).
