Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. 4to (25.5 cm), VII, 669 pp., 8 leaves of plates. Publisher's cloth (binding slightly dusted and rubbed). Reprint of the first edition, originally published in 1949 in a limited edition of 200 copies. Compiled by the British chemist and bibliophile Denis I. Duveen (1910-1992), whose interest in alchemy and early chemistry began while he was studying at Oxford, the catalogue records his celebrated collection of more than 3,000 volumes, assembled from the 1930s through the late 1940s. Initially focused broadly on chemistry and particularly on alchemy, Duveen's collecting interests developed during his years in Paris to include Antoine Lavoisier and the history of French chemistry. Despite the disruption of the Second World War, much of his collection remained safely concealed in a French farmer's barn during the German occupation. Long ranked alongside John Ferguson's Bibliotheca Chemica as one of the two fundamental reference works for the bibliography of alchemy and chemistry, the catalogue deliberately complements Ferguson's strengths in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century material by giving particularly strong coverage to eighteenth- and nineteenth-century chemistry. Its scope extends beyond alchemy and chemistry to technology, metallurgy, mineralogy, dyeing, pharmacy, and balneology. Entries are arranged alphabetically by author, with works listed chronologically, and provide full title transcriptions, format and collation, and detailed bibliographical notes citing Ferguson, Bolton, Caillet, Schelenz, and other standard authorities. Numerous entries are illustrated with half-tone reproductions of title pages, including copies bearing significant early ownership inscriptions. Includes a substantial index. An indispensable reference for the antiquarian trade in the history of science, alchemy, chemistry, and related technical literature; the phrase "Not in Duveen" has long served booksellers as a concise indication of bibliographical rarity.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. 2 volumes 4to (26.5 cm), front., XXIII, 491 pp, 42 plates (1 folding); front., XVI, 177 pp, 6 plates; a facsimile of Lavoisier's bookplate pasted to the front paste-down of both volumes. Publisher's cloth and dust jacket (dust jackets slightly stained, dust jacket of the Supplement foxed and frayed at extremities). The Supplement, authored by Denis I. Duveen, was published by Dawsons of Pall Mall in 1965. First edition. This bibliography covers Antoine Lavoisier (1743-1794), the French chemist who laid the foundation for modern chemistry. It presents chronologically arranged annotated lists of Lavoisier's contributions to periodical works, major separate works, minor separate works and contributions to separate works, miscellanea in other works, reports by Lavoisier to the Academie on other works, and collected works. The Foreword notes, "The principle has been followed in this bibliography of listing each paper and every volume in which Lavoisier's name is given as one of the authors or which were issued by an organization during his tenure of executive office, also in those cases in which his authorship could not be incontestably proved or even when the evidence suggested that he did not write a specific article although he signed his name to it. The circumstances are pointed out in each individual case of this type. All anonymous publications, the original manuscripts of which are preserved and which are printed in the Oeuvres, have also been included. In the notes to each item, Lavoisier's relationship to the particular piece under consideration has always been indicated." The Supplement, comprising over 700 additional items, follows the same principles and includes findings from the subsequent decade of research.…
