"Dr. Cosbie traces the history of the Hospital from its founding in York, through its humble facilities on King Street, to the ornate Victorian structure on Gerrard, and finally to the great institution which today dominates the corner of College Street and University Avenue. Its early service to the victims of the War of 1812 and of the cholera epidemics of the nineteenth century, the problems of financing, the challenges of two world wars, and its relationship with the University and its medical schools are just a few of the factors governing the direction taken by the institution. Throughout this chronicle, the achievements of a distinguished body of medical staff in the fields of medical practice, research, and teaching are described in a context of contribution to the University and the city of Toronto, as well as to the international medical scene." - from dust jacket.

In-16, broché, couverture beige d'origine, 82 p. et 14 p. de catalogue de la Librairie Sociétaire, exemplaire non rogné. Seconde édition. L'exposé des idées de Cantagrel et la synthèse des principes pédagogiques de l'école phalanstérienne. "Il critique tout à la fois l’éducation familiale, qui comprime l’esprit de l’enfant, et celle de l’école, qui est incomplète et pernicieuse. Il prône une plus grande liberté laissée aux enfants, vivant en réunions enfantines au sein desquelles ils sont stimulés et où ils peuvent découvrir leurs propres vocations. En fin de brochure on trouve un catalogue raisonné des ouvrages publiés par la librairie sociétaire" (Université de Poitiers en ligne, ‘Les premiers socialismes’). Ingénieur et juriste de formation, militant fouriériste, l'auteur était l'un des principaux dirigeants de l'école phalanstérienne et de sa presse. Il a été élu en 1849 à la Législative et demeura fidèle à ses engagements tout au long de sa vie. (Del Bo, p.23). Petite signature ex-libris manuscrite et mention d'auteur sur le titre. Bon exemplaire, non rogné, tel que paru.

In-12, pleine basane de l'époque, dos orné (un mors fendu, épidermure au dos), tranches jaspées, xij, 392 p., (4) p. d'approbation et privilège, portrait en frontispice, d'après de La Tour, gravé par Duflos. Dans cet essai aujourd'hui largement réévalué, Duclos livre une pénétrante analyse de la société de son temps en faisant, dans la tradition de La Bruyère, oeuvre de moraliste : une morale utilitaire et sociale fondée sur l'interdépendance entre les besoins égoïstes des individus et l'intérêt général de la société. Un important chapitre expose un point de vue original et novateur sur l'éducation et l'instruction. Bien que durablement brouillé avec D'Alembert, Duclos fournit plusieurs articles de critique artistique et d'histoire à l'Encyclopédie. (Meister, 'Duclos', n°48. Le Bourgo, 'Duclos', p. 224. Cohen, 331). Bon état intérieur.
In-8, demi-chagrin rouge de l’époque, dos lisse orné de filets dorés et à froid et de fleurons dorés, titre doré, 204, (14) p. de partitions en fin de volume et planches hors-texte. Première édition française accompagnée de nombreuses planches hors-texte noir et bleu et de 14 pages de partitions (paroles et musique). Le "manuel pratique" de mise en œuvre de la célèbre méthode du pédagogue allemand Friedrich Fröbel.

Longue introduction de Bertha de Marenholtz-Bülow, l’une des plus ferventes disciples de Fröbel. Les nombreuses planches lithographiées représentent principalement le matériel pédagogique.

104 livraisons in-folio réunies en un volume demi-basane de l'époque dos lisse orné (dos abimé), (2), 445 p. (pagination continue). Tête de collection de ce périodique paraissant 2 fois par semaine, fondé par Paul Dupont. Organe officiel de la rue de Grenelle, il constitue l'une des sources principales sur l'instruction publique durant la période : rapports, enquêtes et statistiques, correspondance, histoire, articles de presse, lois et décrets, projets, nominations, récompenses, programmes, les institution, discours, etc., etc. "La législation qui régit l’instruction publique va être renouvelée ; c’est une des promesses de la Charte, c’est un vœu, un besoin du pays. La loi nouvelle consacrera pour l’enseignement le principe d’une liberté à laquelle l’université et le pays applaudiront, pourvu qu’il n’y ait danger ni pour les intelligences, ni pour les esprits, ni pour les cœurs [...]. La publicité sera donc la garantie naturelle de la liberté de l’enseignement, elle la défendra de toute atteinte arbitraire et de ses propres excès. Telle est la loyauté des intentions du Ministre qu’il a lui-même provoqué cette publicité ; il a senti que, pour être efficaces, toutes les mesures qui s’adresseront, non plus à une soumission forcée, mais au concours volontaire des citoyens, devront être soumises à l’épreuve de la discussion. Le Journal officiel [...] tiendra ainsi à l’université, non pas seulement pour la défense de ce qui est, mais surtout pour la défense de ce qui sera et de ce qui doit être" (prospectus, 1831). Dos abimé. Parfait état intérieur.

336 pages plus index and advertisements. Frontis is black and white plate of author. Completely vindicates British-Israel teaching. Claims the Anglo-Saxon race are lineal descendants of the Ten Tribes of Israel who were taken away as captives to Assyria about the years 770-721 B.C. by Tiglath Pileser, Ahalmaneser and Sargon. Claims the Almighty is today fulfilling in us (Anglo-Saxons) in our British Empire the national promises he made between three and four thousand years ago to Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, Israel and David; and that, in fact, we are British Israelites - "literal descendants of the Lost Ten Tribes; the continuation of the Israel nation; the inheritors of her Charters; the possessors of her guarantees and immunities from destruction; and the executors of her commissions."
