Hardcover. Zustand: Gut. XII, 371; II, 464 S. Lederbände der Zeit mit goldgeprägten Rücken. Der deutschstämmige Aufklärer und Philosoph Baron d'Holbach (1723-1789) trug über 400 Artikel zur Encyclopédie seines lebenslangen Freundes Diderot bei. Doch während die Enzyklopädisten zwar die offizielle Kirche kritisierten, wagte Holbach mit seinem "Système de la Nature" (1770) den Angriff auf den Gottesgedanken selbst, was schließlich sogar Voltaire dazu brachte, mit einer Verteidigung der Religion zu antworten. d'Holbach war sich des persönlichen Risikos der Verfolgung bewußt und veröffentlichte seine Werke meist unter dem Namen kürzlich verstorbener Autoren wie hier unter dem Jean-Baptiste Mirabauds. Es gilt als Hauptwerk der französischen atheistischen Moralphilosophie im Zeitalter der Aufklärung. Der Rücken von Band 1 in neuerer Zeit fachmännisch repariert. Die Titelblätter mit handschriftlicher Ergänzung des Verfassers und mehreren alten Namenseinträgen, insgesamt handelt es sich jedoch um ein ordentliches, gut erhaltenes Exemplar der legendären "Bibel des Materialismus.".…

Londres, 1793. 2 volúmenes. En 4º (200 x 124)mm. -I: viii-304 pp. -II: 374 pp., (1) h. Encuadernación en holandesa de la época, lomera con adornos dorados. Buena edición de la más importante y polémica obra de este insigne autor, el Barón de Holbach, nacido en Alemania y educado en la Universidad de Leiden. Este gran científico contribuyó con más de mil artículos en la Enciclopedia de Diderot; gran amigo y compañero de éste, Alambert, Helvetius, Voltaire y otros filósofos y pensadores franceses de la Ilustración. Pronto deja la ciencia y se adentra en un campo más peligroso: escribe una serie de libros atacando la religión en todos sus aspectos. No podía utilizar su nombre al publicarlos, así utiliza el nombre de autores franceses recientemente fallecidos. En 1770 se publica la primera edición del "Systeme de la Nature", su mejor obra, donde aparece bajo el nombre de Jean Baptiste Mirabaud. Aquí no sólo critica el poder de la Iglesia, sino el sentido mismo de la religión, haciendo una verdadera "philipica contra Dios". La primera edición se publicó en 1770; en ella Holbach expone completa su teoría del materialismo. Obra de gran estima. Procedencia: 1. Librairie Bonzom, Bayona. 2. Librería de J. Jiménez, Madrid Early edition of Holbach's most famous work, the bible of materialism. Published under a pseudonym, this book immediately attracted the most violent hostility from the establishment, and was banned by the French parliament shortly after publication. This "philippique against God" was going far beyond the questioning of the Church's worldly power; no room for any supernatural contribution was left in what soon became known as a thundering engine of revolt and destruction. 200x124mm. (7¾x5").…

Hardcover. Zustand: g- to vg. Ex-Library, Nouvelle edition. Octavos. Vol.1: 400pp. Vol.2: 448pp. Period brown calf with gilt ruling along the edges of the covers and gilt tooling on the spine. Gilt lettering over red and black labels on the spine. A small stamp of "The John Crerar Library" in gilt lettering is at the bottom left corners of the front covers. All edges gilt, detelles and marbled endpapers. Green ribbon markers. This is a beautifully bound early edition of Holbach's influential enlightenment-era philosophical work, originally and famously attributed to Jean-Baptiste de Mirabaud. The back of volume 2 contains a limited table of contents. Among the ideas espoused are that those philosophical materialism, claiming that the universe works as matter in motion, governed by the laws of cause and effect, without need for any sort of deity or supernatural power. Holbach denies the existence of any sort of soul beyond the mind's existence as an function of the brain. The author also discusses the distinction between mythology and theology. Holbach's challenge to religious and social beliefs systems from a moral perspective was seen as an affront to the organized religious power structures and the monarchy, and was the cause for many written reponses in the form of refutations and polemics in its day. The work is known one of the earliest works of modern atheism. Some scholar's believe that Denis Diderot, the enlightenment philosopher and close friend of Holbach, was influential on the work, and may have even contributed in part, to the writing. Text in French. Bindings with rubbing to extremities. Leather on the covers and on the hinges of the spines with some cracking. Gilt decoration on the spines rubbed. The spine of volume 2 is loosening at the hinge. Light chipping to the heads and tails of the spines. Interiors with library bookplates and pockets pasted on at the interior front and back covers. Library ink stamps on the front endpapers of each volume, as well as perforated stamps at the top of the title page and on p.207 of vol.1, and at p. 253 of vol.2. Minor sporadic foxing throughout the volumes. Bindings in good-, interiors in very good condition overall. * The book is known to have actually been published in Amsterdam, contrary to being printed as "Londres" (London). * The final "V" on the publication date in both volumes, seems to have been purposely removed at some point, in order to pass this copy off as an original 1770 first edition.…

FIRST EDITION, FIRST ISSUE OF "THE BIBLE OF MATERIALISM" (PMM, 215). 2 vols. 8vo. (20 x 12.5 cm). Half-title, Table des chapitres [2], title, Avis de l'editeur [2], Préface de l'auteur [4]+pp.370; title, Table des chapitres [2]+pp.412. Contemporary full mottled calf, spines decorated in gilt, two brown morocco labels (vol. 1 missing one label), decorative navy blue chequered endpapers, pink silk ribbon page markers, red speckled edges. Joints slightly cracked (but strong) and with some minor losses, spines rubbed, contents clean save for some occasional light toning, generally a very good unsophisticated set of this major philosophical work. The rare first edition, first issue (with the correct pagination, the comma after 'Londres' in the imprint', and without the 4-page errata which was added later during the printing process as mistakes were discovered), of d'Holbach's main work, the main work of materialism, and one of the most important works of natural philosophy. Paul Heinrich Dietrich, Baron d'Holbach, was born at Heidelsheim in Germany and educated in Holland at Leiden University, before settling in Paris and becoming a naturalized Frenchman. He first became known as a scientist and contributed some four hundred articles to the Encyclopédie of his lifelong friend and colleague Denis Diderot. Diderot, d'Alembert, Helvetius, Voltaire and others of the philosophes met frequently for dinner and philosophical discussions at the Baron's house, which became known as 'the café of Europe' (among foreign visitors to these dinners were Wilkes, Hume and Sterne). Later Holbach turned from science to more dangerous topics: he wrote, and had published abroad, a stream of books attacking religion in all its aspects, which flooded illegally into France. He could not publish safely under his own name, but had had the ingenious idea of using the names of recently dead French authors. Thus, in 1770, his most famous book, 'The System of Nature', appeared under the name of Jean-Baptiste Mirabaud. When it reached France it provoked one of the greatest scandals of the century, being immediately condemned on the 18th of August, 1770, and put on the Index the 9th of November. "In the Système Holbach rejected the Cartesian mind-body dualism and attempted to explain all phenomena, physical and mental, in terms of matter in motion. He derived the moral and intellectual faculties from man's sensibility to impressions made by the external world, and saw human actions as entirely determined by pleasure and pain. He continued to direct his attack on religion by attempting to show that it derived entirely from habit and custom. But the Système was not a negative or destructive book: Holbach rejected religion because he saw it as a wholly harmful influence, and he tried to supply a more desirable alternative. In fact he outlined a whole ethical and political philosophy, which he expanded in his later works (especially La Morale Universelle, 1776). It was his aim to derive a morality and an ethic from a completely materialistic and atheistic bias.the confident dogmatism and the comprehensiveness of the Systême de la Nature, which even provoked Voltaire to reply in defence of religion, have ensured its survival as the bible of materialism" (PMM 215).

Encuadernación de tapa dura. Zustand: Muy bien. 1ª Edición. In-8º, 2 vols. Vol 1: (6)ff, 366pp; vol 2: (3)ff, 408pp. Some light browning. Bound in half calf with marbled paperboards. Spine gilt. Marbled endpapers. Good copy. Holbach's most famous work in which dialectical materialism is held to be the key that unlocks the mysteries of life. The work was sentenced to be burnt by the French Parlement in August of the same year. Both Voltaire and Frederick the Great saw Holbach's work as an intellectual challenge and composed replies to it. First Edition, second issue. Paul Heinrich Dietrich, Baron d Holbach (1723-1789) first became known as a scientist, contributing some four hundred articles to the Encyclopédie of his friend and colleague Denis Diderot. Holbach later turned from science to more dangerous topics, writing and having published abroad, a number of books attacking religion in all aspects, which flooded illegally into France.

Couverture rigide. S. n. [ Marc Michel Rey] | à Londres [Amsterdam] 1774 | 12.50 x 19.50 cm | relié | Rare et intéressante réunion de ces deux ouvrages. Nouvelle édition du système de la nature après la rare originale de 1770, et édition originale de l'ouvrage d'Helvetius à la même date de 1774 que cette nouvelle édition de Mirabaud ; en réalité trois éditions sont parues à la même date, avec une collation différente, sans qu'on ait pu déterminer s'il y a une véritable originale. Reliure en pleine basane marbrée d'époque. Dos lisse très orné. Pièce de titre en maroquin rouge, et de tomaison en maroquin noir. Tranches rouges. Coiffes de queue arrachées. Une tâche brune sur le plat supérieur du tome I. Restauration à l'aide d'une pièce de cuir au plat supérieur du tome II. Assez bon exemplaire. L'ouvrage d'Helvetius est une exégèse et un examen du Système de la nature, l'auteur semble en avoir condensé la matière sous forme de maximes et d'assertions, le tout reposant sur un fort credo matérialiste. On sait aujourd'hui que l'ouvrage n'est peut-être pas d'Helvetius, bien qu'on y reconnaisse sa philosophie. Quant au Système de la nature de Mirabaud, il fut reçut comme une bombe dans le milieu des lettres, et finalement assez mal accueilli par les philosophes. Ce ne furent pas les thèses ouvertement matérialistes de d'Holbach qui furent condamnées mais la démonstration d'athéisme et d'anticléricalisme. | [ENGLISH DESCRIPTION FOLLOWS] Rare and interesting gathering of these two works. New edition of the Système de la nature after the rare first edition of 1770, and first edition of Helvetius's work at the same date of 1774 as this new edition of Mirabaud; in reality three editions appeared at the same date, with different collation, without being able to determine if there is a true first edition. Contemporary full marbled sheep binding. Richly decorated smooth spine. Red morocco title label, and black morocco volume label. Red edges. Tail headcaps torn away. A brown stain on the upper board of volume I. Restoration using a piece of leather on the upper board of volume II. Fairly good copy. Helvetius's work is an exegesis and examination of the Système de la nature, the author seems to have condensed the material in the form of maxims and assertions, all resting on a strong materialist creed. We now know that the work may not be by Helvetius, although we recognize his philosophy in it. As for Mirabaud's Système de la nature, it was received like a bombshell in literary circles, and ultimately quite poorly received by the philosophers. It was not d'Holbach's openly materialist theses that were condemned but the demonstration of atheism and anticlericalism. * (14) 397pp. et (4) 500pp. (3) ; 84pp. (3).…
