Édition originale du traité majeur de Joseph-Marie Gros de Besplas, prédicateur de Louis XV.

Ces principes établis, il lance de violentes diatribes contre le luxe qu'il faut réprimer par de forts impôts, déplore que des terres restent en friche faute d'instruments de travail et appelle le Prince à un " partage plus égal de ses terres d'accord avec la justice ".

First Edition
First edition, a curious work by the Abbé Gros de Besplas, one of few incursions into the subject of political economy by the French clergy; a very attractive copy. Gros de Besplas (1734-1783) was priest at Saint-Sulpice in Paris, and chaplain to the future Louis XVIII. The treatise, dedicated to the dauphin, is broadly conservative, and does not propose any major specific reforms. And yet, it is also critical of private property, supporting the fulfilment of the necessities of all, and the requirement of all to work. The author condemns celibacy and luxury, and of allowing land to be hoarded and left fallow. His writings have been seen as a forerunner of socialism (see André Lichtenberger, Le socialisme au XVIIIe siècle, 1895, pp. 391-3), with the author theorizing that land belongs to society and not to any individual. INED 2163 (later edition). Octavo (188 x 117 mm). Contemporary marbled sheep, orange label to spine, gilt in compartments, red edges. Engraved frontispiece. Slight peripheral rubbing, scattered light foxing; an excellent copy.

First edition of the major work by the Abbé Gros de Besplas, the preacher of Louis XV. While property, society and religion were subjected to violent attacks in the writings of the philosophes, only very few "abbé's" introduced the subject of political economy into their sermons, some even to the point where they were called to order by the ecclesiastical authorites. Among them, the Abbé Gros de Besplas, while not believing in the utility of important and profound reform, argued that public welfare, of which religion and the monarch were the principle guards, follows from possession of the "necessary", a certain abundance, and being subjected to work. Gros de Besplas strongly condamns celibacy, mendicity and "le luxe" which, he feels, must be suppressed by means of heavy taxes, deplores the fallow land for want of instruments and machines in the hands of those who work the land, and argues for a more even distribution of land in "accord avec la justice". The subjects of the monarch, or any ruler, have four important rights: the right to life, the right to be free, the right to own property, and the right to be protected. From this Gros de Besplas arrives at a socialist theory of property: the property of land belongs to society as it can not belong to any particular man. To his politically moderate ideas Gros de Besplan attaches more radical ideas concerning property.The engraved frontispiece is preceded by a leaf which contains verso an "Explication du Frontispiece." Rare: only Higgs and Kress have the original edition.
