Brewster to title, price inscriptions to title and last leaf.First edition in England (and second in English) of this groundbreaking work on political interest and the balance of power by the leader of the Huguenots, this copy with hitherto unnoticed printing variants. Henri, Duke of Rohan (15791638) commanded the French Protestants in the wars of the 1610s and '20s prior to his reconciliation with Richelieu in 1629; thereafter he led French campaigns against the Habsburgs in Switzerland and northern Italy. Written at the height of the Thirty Years' War and first published in French in 1638, his treatise is a coolly Machiavellian analysis of the geopolitics of Europe. Starting with his 'famous opening sentence' (Hirschman, p. 34) 'The Princes command the People, & the Interest commands the Princes' Rohan lays out in realist terms the interests of each nation and how its rulers might achieve them. Espionage, fomenting rebellion, feigned piety, and playing Catholics and Protestants off against each other are among the methods prescribed. 'There are sentences here which will make even the modern reader's heart beat fast. One is faced with the spectacle of a man who has hit upon the supreme task of all historical speculation His words exhale the passionate feeling of the statesman, who sees with equal clarity both the high fixed guiding star of conduct and the changeability of winds and currents' (Meinecke, pp. 1689). England 'a little world apart' but soon to be 'a third Puissance in Christendome' gets a chapter to herself, and in this country the book was 'particularly influential'. 'It was rapidly translated and provoked much comment. One of Rohan's pithy phrases in his opening paragraph l'intérêt seul ne peut jamais manquer is at the origin of the maxim "Interest Will Not Lie," which gained considerable currency in seventeenth-century England' (Hirschman, p. 36), supplying inter alia the title of an important pamphlet by Marchamont Nedham. The present translation was first published in a Paris quarto of 1640. Quires B and C of our copy are in a variant state not noticed by Wing or ESTC. Aside from many differences in accidentals and signature and catchword placement, there is one substantive textual difference: in our copy 'The Catholik Princes [of Germany] ought from henceforth to be well advised' rather than 'to disabuse themselves' in the British Library and Huntington copies and the 1640 edition that 'they serve the designe of the house of Austria, and forge by little and little the irons of their own bondage ' (p. 44). ESTC R24499; Wing R 1868. See Hirschman, The Passions and the Interests (1977); Meinecke, Machiavellism: the Doctrine of raison d'état and its Place in modern History (195 7). Language: English.

Sur l'imprimé a Cologne, Iean de Païs, 1666 & Cologne 1665 (marque: la Sphère). 2 tomes en 1 vol. in-12. [viii],248.245 pp. Plein veau. Réliure tres frottée, coiffes endommagées Barbier II/954: "Le premier traité est du duc Henry de Rohan, mais il a subi bien des changements et surtout bien des additions depuis qu'il est sorti de la plume de son illustre auteur. On remarque, en effet, qu'il est conduit ici jusqu'au temps de l'édition; et d'ailleurs, l'éditeur n'en fait pas mystère. Voy.la Préface. Quant au second traité, l'auteur n'en est pas connu." Willems 1371: "Le volume sort positivement des presses elzeviriennes d'Amsterdam, et figure avec l'astérisque au catal. de 1681." pour l'édition 1666-1665, et ajoute: "Une contrefaçon exacte, mais beaucoup moins belle, porte: Sur l'imprimé à Cologne, 1666; la page 248 y est cotée par erreur 284; c'est l'imprimeur L.Maurry de Rouen qui l'a exécutée, et elle porte sa sphère." Notre exemplaire porte "Sur l'imprimé a Cologne", mais la pagination est correcte. Rahir 1431. STCN.: "Generally attributed to Gatien de Courtilz de Sandras (1644-1712).".

Dr. 1668. 4 Bll., 292 S. - VD17 3:601589X (Variante mit 'Päbste', statt 'Bäbste' auf dem Titel) - alter Namenseintrag auf Titelbl.gleichmäßig gebräuntes insgesamt gutes Exemplar. - Fußt auf dem in den 1620er Jahren erschienen berühmten Werk zur Staatsraison des Herzogs von Rohan (vgl Meinecke, Idee der Staatsraison) , wobei der Schwerpunkt hier auf den Ansprüchen gegenüber anderen Staaten liegt und der Verfasser anders als Rohan auch die 'ungläubigen' Potentaten (Türken, Araber etc.) berücksichtigt. Mit umfangreichen Auszügen aus dem Werk Rohans. Ob es sich bei dem Verfasser wirklich um den bei Erscheinen der Originalausgabe 1666 22-jährigen Courtilz de Sandras handelt, dessen andere Werke wesentlich später datieren, ist fraglich. .- selten (Geschichte, Politik, Fürstenspiegel, Frankreich).
