Zustand: Gut. [6 nn] Bll. 144 S. Außergewöhnlich seltene, erste Französische Ausgabe kein Jahr nach der englischen Erstausgabe erschienen. "A letter concerning enthusiasm: To My Lord *****" (London [Farmington Hills, Mich]: printed for J. Morphew, near Stationers-Hall [Cengage Gale], 1708). Anthony Ashley Cooper war der dritte Earl of Shaftesbury (1671-1713) war der bedeutenste Vertreter der Frühaufklärung. Er wurde von John Locke erzogen, erlebte die Glorious Revolution 1688, ging in die Niederlanden, wo er mit Buffon zusammentraf. Ab 1708 begann er, anonym verschiedene Essays zu veröffentlichen wie die berühmte Schrift Sensus Communis, an Essay on the Freedom of Wit and Humour oder auch The Moralists, a Philosophical Rhapsody und auch das vorliegende Werk. Der literarisch gestaltete Brief über den Enthusiasmus ist an John Somers, einen Freund und politischen Mitstreiter, gerichtet. Shaftesbury ließ das Werk 1708 drucken. Den Anlass zur Abfassung bot das Auftreten der französischen Propheten, einer Gruppe von hugenottischen Flüchtlingen aus Frankreich, die seit 1706 in London in Erscheinung traten. Die französischen Kamisarden, die der Verfolgung in ihrer Heimat entkommen waren, entfalteten im Exil eine von Begeisterung getragene und von ekstatischen Phänomenen begleitete Predigttätigkeit.[26] Dieses Phänomen regte Shaftesbury dazu an, den Enthusiasmus zu untersuchen. Er gelangte zu einer differenzierenden Einschätzung. Einerseits nahm er die Überspanntheit und den Wissensanspruch religiöser Fanatiker aufs Korn, andererseits würdigte er die Begeisterungsfähigkeit als überaus wertvolle Veranlagung des Menschen. Aus aufklärerischer Sicht legte er dar, wie man einen konstruktiven, berechtigten Enthusiasmus von fanatischem Eifer unterscheiden könne: Das Abwegige lasse sich als lächerlich entlarven. Hilfreich sei eine humorvolle Betrachtungsweise. Heiterkeit sei der Gegenpol zur Melancholie der Verblendeten, die den Nährboden des Fanatismus bilde und sich durch das Erleben von Unterdrückung und Verfolgung noch verstärke.(vgl.: Erwin Wolff: Shaftesbury und seine Bedeutung für die englische Literatur des 18.

Both letters in good condition, on lightly-aged paper. Letter One (25 June 1883): 6pp., 12mo. Southesk begins: 'I now am able to fulfil my promise, and beg to send you a copy in my own writing of a semi-mystical little piece, which some people have liked, from the "Greenwood's Farewell" volume.' Regarding the question of 'the publication of poems', Southesk writes: 'I fear that even the "aesthetic" writers who have the command of the literary papers do not find verse a marketable thing, and writers who dislike artificiality conventionality and sickly affectation have no chance of a hearing, to say nothing of praise'. The 'safest plan', in his opinion, 'is to print a number of copies for private circulation'. He stresses that he is speaking 'entirely on the general question', and would not 'care to discuss the special question', not feeling competent to 'play the critic's part, either for blame or commendation, except under different conditions from those of a private letter [.] no human being could with certainty predicate the reception a volume of new poems would experience in the way of criticism, while on the other hand few could entertain the smallest doubt that, commerically speaking the venture would prove a heavy losss to its undertakers. | I believe all publishers will tell you the same "o'er true" tale.' Letter Two (29 June 1883): 4pp., 12mo. He is enclosing a copy of his pamphlet 'Britain's Art Paradise', and points out that his last letter 'was in no way meant to discourage you specially from publishing your poems, but was a statement of general experience on the subject of verse publications, regarding which I know something from several quarters.' Despite the fact that 'publication is too apt to lend to expense, and to annoyances untold' he would never 'advise a poet to leave his works to die. It is not difficult, nor necessarily costly, to print a limited number of copies for private circulation. This at least keeps the works together - to be appreciated perhaps by a future generation even if not by the present.' Baron was an inveterate autograph hunter, and his appeal for advice may well have been a pretext.
