Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book details the French National Assembly's discussion about the advantages and disadvantages of selling national assets to individuals or groups to raise revenue. The author, a member of the Assembly, argues that selling to the public promotes individual ownership of land, stimulating the economy. They propose selling assets in stages, prioritizing sales of smaller parcels to encourage bids from common citizens rather than only the elite. The author's conclusion advocates for the benefits of dividing and selling the assets to the public and the potential for economic growth it offers the nation. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a fresh perspective on the history of the French Revolution, examining its complex social and economic origins through the lens of the sale of nationalized church lands. The author argues that the sale of these lands played a pivotal role in shaping the course of the revolution, fueling the rise of capitalism and the emergence of a new class of property owners. The author draws on extensive research to shed light on the individuals involved in this process, from wealthy speculators to peasants seeking to acquire their own land. The book provides a nuanced and detailed account of the social, economic, and political dynamics that shaped the sale of nationalized church lands, making it an essential read for anyone interested in understanding the French Revolution and its lasting impact on French society. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book details the foundation and history of the Massachusetts Constitution, established in 1780. The Constitution, considered a vital part of the American Revolution, enshrined principles that would be later reflected in the U.S. Constitution, such as the separation of powers, the right to bear arms, and freedom of religion. The author analyzes the unique features of the document, such as its emphasis on a strong executive branch and its inclusion of a Bill of Rights, to convey its profound impact on American constitutional history. The book's insights on the Massachusetts Constitution offer readers a window into the legal and political landscape that shaped the development of American democracy.

Contemporary cat's paw calf, raised bands, spine gilt in compartments with pomegranate centerpiece, volute cornerpieces, brown morocco label, marbled endpapers. With the Great Seal of the United States on title page. A PRESENTATION COPY: the title page with contemporary ink note (in Latin), dated 1783, stating that this book was the gift of the Duc de La Rochefoucauld, who translated the American documents from "idiomatic English" into French. Livingston, "Franklin's Press at Passy," pp. 181-88; Howes C-716; Sabin 16118; Streeter sale II:1035. Thin strip missing from head of spine, backstrip rather dried, joints, edges, and corners a bit rubbed, leather a little pitted from acid treatment (as usual), other minor external defects, but the binding agreeable as an original, unrestored survival. First two and last two leaves a little foxed and soiled (minor foxing in a number of other places), but the text quite fresh and generally clean and appealing. This is an especially desirable copy of a work containing founding documents of the American republic in French, an important language for the international community, the book apparently being a gift--as indicated on the title page--from the translator. The volume represents a collaboration between compiler Benjamin Franklin, the man the U.S. State Department considers "America's first diplomat," and translator Louis Alexandre de La Rochefoucauld (1743-92), an important French aristocrat who was an enthusiastic supporter of the American Revolution. The book contains the state constitutions of the original 13 states, the Declaration of Independence, the Articles of Confederation (precursor to the U.S. Constition), and the treaties between the United States and France, the Low Countries, and Sweden. Printer, polymath, and Founding Father Franklin (1706-90) explained the motivation behind this work to Thomas Mifflin, president of the Confederation Congress, in a letter of 25 December 1783: "The extravagant Misrepresentations of our Political State, in foreign Countries, made it appear necessary to give them better Information, which I thought could not be more effectually and authentically done than by publishing a Translation into French, now the most general Language in Europe, of the Book of Constitutions which had been printed by Order of Congress. This I accordingly got well done. It has been well taken, and has afforded [a] Matter of Surprise to many, who had conceived mean Ideas of the State of Civilization in America, and could not have expected so much political Knowledge and Sagacity had existed in our Wilderness. And from all Parts I have the Satisfaction to hear that our Constitutions in general are much admired. I am persuaded that this Step will not only tend to promote the Emigration to our Country of substantial People from all Parts of Europe, by the numerous Copies I shall dispense, but will facilitate our future Treaties with Foreign Courts, who could not before know what kind of Government and People they had to treat with." Franklin called on his friend Louis Alexandre de La Rochefoucauld (1743-92) to translate the documents, with Franklin providing corrections and clarifications, often included here as footnotes. According to Livingston, Franklin had 100 copies of the work printed in quarto for presentation to various European dignitaries, and had 50 of the octavo copies bound in calf. As our copy is noted to be the gift of La Rochefoucauld, it seems possible that it was one of those 50. This publication had one more distinction, noted by Livingston: it contains the first appearance in any printed book of the Great Seal of the United States, adopted by Congress in 1782. The First Collected Edition in French of the Constitutions of the U.S. States. ONE OF 500 COPIES of the regular issue (and 100 Large Paper Copies; this apparently one of the 50 regular copie.…
