Published by Undated but circa the s. Paris France. Though date in pencil on first page "1779", 1820
Manuscript / Paper Collectible
Initial sectional "Titlepage" states: "Abrege des Ventes fondamentale de la Philosopphie naturelle ou Elements de la himie moderne dispose par Ordre. || Philosophie chimique". The anonymous author of this material is evidently a well-educated individual, and well-versed in the sciences. He has taken great care over the material, and it can be presumed that his intention was either to try for publication, or use it while lecturing. (It may be worth noting that in 1933 the Wellcome Library in London acquired a manuscript of extracts (MS.2422) from Fourcroy's 1797 lectures on medical chemistry, probably by his student Hyacinthe Bonnet.) Whatever his intention, it gives an interesting glimpse into the state of scientific knowledge in the period of the Enlightenment and Industrial Revolution. The material in large part comprises an attempt at a survey of the present state of the sciences. The work is well laid-out and organized, with very little emendation or revision, but it is fascinating to tease out the author's method, working back from his text to his sources. To give a few examples, in the botanical section, the description of 'Les Arbustes' draws on the 'Dictionnaire des Sciences Naturelles' (Paris, 1804), and the 'Exposition des principes de la Methode de Tournefort' is largely taken from Pierre Bulliard, 'Dictionnaire élémentaire de botanique' (1812). Another source is M. Lunier, 'Dictionnaire des Sciences et des Arts'(Paris, 1805). And in the section on physics, the author's 'De la Porosité' adapts material from Wandelaincourt's 'Nouvelle Physique' (Paris, 1782); while his 'De la Mobilité des Corps' makes use of Nollet's 'Leçons de physique experimentale' (Paris, 1743). And the section on optics draws heavily on Jean-Paul Marat's 1787 translation of Newton. IN PROFESSIONAL AND ATTRACTIVE BOX. The present material comprises 124pp, folio. On late seventeenth-century laid paper with Whatman fleur-de-lys watermarks. The dimensions of the book are 25 x 34 cm, although 48 of the leaves (all but the last 15) fold out to double size (i.e. 50 x 34 cm). All disbound from the same volume, as the state of the spine indicates. Some of the leaves are grubby, and there is occasional wear to extremities, but the overall condition is good. All the material would appear to be in the same hand, and it is generally neat in presentation; but variations in size of handwriting and apparent care taken would appear to indicate that the manuscript was written over a period of time. The illustrations, though occasional, are more than competent. The material can be divided into three sections, all three being incomplete. Parts One and Two (practically fair copies) both appear to be part of the same attempt at an encyclopedic conspectus of the sciences. One is the first part of a 'Dictionaire Elémentaire de Botanique'. It contains a number of carefully-executed coloured botanical illustrations (see Image). Two presents material relating to others sciences presented in a similar style to One, with sections on physics, hydrostatics, mechanics, pneumatics, optics (a full listing of headings and subheadings is given below). A couple of sections end abruptly, suggesting the absence of pages r gatherings. The third section of the manuscript is the first part of an abridgement of the 1792 'Philosophie chimique' of Antoine-François Fourcroy, which breaks off with a little less than half task completed. ONE: 15pp, 'Dictionaire Elémentaire de Botanique' ['Exposition du Systeme Sexuel de Linæus', 'Premiere Division | Plantes dont les Fleurs sont distinctes.]. With coloured botanical illustrations on pp.2, 3, 8 (in ten sections), 9 (in eight sections), and in 24 sections over the whole of p.13. TWO: 79pp, with a few uncoloured pen illustrations (mechanics and optics), and text arranged under the following headings and subheadings: 'Introduction', 'Leçons de Physique, ou Études de la Nature' ['Leçon. 1e.', 'De la Physique', 'De la Figure des Corps', 'De la Solidité des Corps', 'De la Porosité, Compressibilité et Elasticité des Corps', 'De la Mobilité des Corps, du Mouvement, de ses Proprietés et de ses Loix', 'Du Mouvement general de ses Proprietés', 'Les Loix de Mouvement Simple', 'Des Causes qui changent la Direction du Mouvement', 'Du Changement de Direction occasionée par la Recontre d'une Matiere Fluide', 'Du Mouvement Reflechi', 'De la Communication du Mouvement dans le Choc des Corps', 'Du Mouvement composé et des Forces Centrales', 'Des Forçes [sic] centrales', 'De la Gravité ou Pesanteur des Corps', 'Derniere Section / Du Phénomenes ou la Pésanteur agit seule sur le Mobile', 'De l'Hydrostatique / Seconde Division de la Physique experimentale' ['De la Pesanteur, et de l'Equilibre des Solides plongés dans les Liqueurs'; 'Reflections sur les Tugeaux Cappilaires' and 'Causes de la Fluidité, et de la dureté des Corps']; 'Troisieme Division de la Philosophie experimentale. de la Méchanique' ['Premiere Section, des Leviers', 'Des Machines / de celles qui sont composées de Leviers, ou qui agissent comme des Leviers' ['Des Roues' and 'Des Treuils, ou Tours du Cabestan' and 'Des Plans innclinés', 'Du Coin']; 'La quatrieme Division de la Philosophie experimentale / De l'Air ou de la Pneumatique' ['De l'Air considerée en luismême premiere Section'; 'Section Seconde / De l'air considéré comme Atmosphere terrestre'; 'Article premier / de l'Atmosphere consideré comme un Fluide en Repos', 'Article second / De l'Atmophere considéré comme un Fluide en mouvement', 'Du Son en géneral', 'Des Corps Sonores', 'De l'Ouïe, et de son Organe', 'Du Son comparé', 'Des Vents', 'De la Nature, et de la Proprieté de l'Eau', 'De l'Eau considerée comme Liqueur', 'De l'Eau considerée comme Vapeur', 'De l'Eau considerée dans l'Etat de Glace']; 'De la Nature, et de la Proprieté du Feu' [Premiere Section / de la Nature du Feu, et de sa Propagation', 'Article 2d / de la propagation du Feu']; 'De la Lumiere' [Section premiere / De / la Propagation de la.
