Ex-library copy with one single institution stamp to title-page and pocket with discard stamp to endpage. Minor fading to spine. ; 208 pages; During the last two centuries of the Roman Republic emigration from Italy to the provinces was widespread and increasing. This book is the first to survey the movement throughout the Empire; the emphasis is on private rather than state-organised settlement. The first part is about the Western Mediterranean provinces, whose Romanization began in this period; the second part treats emigration to the Greek East, where, by contrast, the settlers tended to become more and more hellenized. The principal matters considered are the volume of emigration, the kinds of communities formed overseas by the emigrants, their motives and origins, the regions and places settled, the fortunes of the settlers in the upheavals of the late Republican period, and their relations with the people among whom they lived.

In-12, plein veau marbré de l'époque, dos à 5 nerfs guillochés or, orné de compartiments fleuronnés et cloisonnés, (2), ij, ij, 292 p., 2 tableaux statistiques à pleine page. Première édition française de ‘Dissertation on the Numbers of Mankind in Ancient and Modern Times', traduit par le chevalier de Jaucourt, peut-être sous la supervision de Montesquieu, publiée un an après l'originale anglaise. Le traducteur, Louis de Jaucourt (1704 -1780), était un collaborateur savant, prolifique et assidu de l'Encyclopédie de Diderot et D'Alembert. Dans l’article "France" de l’Encyclopédie, il affirma hautement que "les provinces se dépeuplent excessivement". L'une des premières grandes spéculations, au XVIIIe siècle, sur l'évolution de la population mondiale, qui ouvrit une controverse entre l'auteur et Hume. S'appuyant sur calculs et statistiques, Wallace réfute les théories sur l'accroissement indéfini de la population en la mettant en relation avec la quantité des subsistances, la nature, la fertilité et le partage des terres, la santé publique, les moeurs, la politique économique des Etats, etc. Il aborde la question de l'optimum de population et traite des moyens d'y parvenir. Cet ouvrage exerça une influence majeure sur Malthus et sur les études démographiques en France. "A limited earth, a limited degree of fertility, and the continual increase of mankind: these are the determinants. Malthus had only to add the ratios!"(K. Smith, 'The Malthusian controversy', p. 22). (Kress, 5408. Einaudi, n°5956. Higgs, 871). Des bibliothèques de M. Fontaine de la Barberie et du Vicomte de Noailles avec leurs ex-libris armoriés gravés. Bel exemplaire, très frais, très bien relié à l'époque.
