A utopian novel of socialist tendency.
It relates the travels of a prisoner of the inquisition named Gaudence de Lucques to the country of
Mezzorania, a patriarchal society where competition and egoism are banned and equal property and a spirit
of community have been realized. It originally appeared in English in 1737 and was then attributed to
George Berkeley, but in fact written by the catholic priest Simon Berington. It underwent a French
metamorphosis in 1746 by the chevalier de Saint-Germain, completed in 1753 by J.B.Dupuy-Demportes
who added much of his own taste. *Higgs 3046. Lichtenberger p.45-47. Trousson p.143-144.

First edition. A
philosophical-political treatise aiming at a universal brotherhood of man. Bonneville was together with
Claude Fauchet a central figure within the
Cercle social, from its founding in October 1790 until
its suppression in June 1793 a centre for enlightened philosophy and democratic agitation, which counted
among its members Condorcet, Cloots, Sieyès, Brissot, and Thomas Paine.
The present book is Bonneville's chief work, particularly noticed for its social if not socialist criticism. It
argues against the unjust division of property by stating that 'the only possible means to achieve the great
social communion is to divide the estates in equal and limited parts for the children of the deceased, and
leave the rest to divide among the other heirs' (p.59).

First edition. A history of

Conspiracy of the Equals of 1796, the first attempt to establish a communist society
by means of violence. Buonarroti was born in Italy from a noble family and under the influence of
Rousseau in 1789 went to France to support the Revolution. He became involved in the Babouvian plot
against the government and got imprisoned, but immediately after his release resumed his activities in secret
societies in Italy and France. The present book was written in Brussels exile, and translated into English (by
the Chartist leader Bronterre O'Brien), and into other languages. It became a handbook for many of the
nineteenth century socialist and communist revolutionaries. *Goldsmiths' 25714. Not in Kress or Einaudi.

sides, gilt back (Laurenchet). A very nice copy indeed. (#16186) eur 450
First edition. The first publication of
Etienne Cabet, the future author of the famous utopian novel
Voyage en Icarie. Cabet was the
son of a cooper and a lawyer by profession, had for a time joined the sect of the French carbonari, but soon
started to dislike its secret character. He took part in the revolution of July 1830 and was sent to Corsica as
an attorney general, but dismissed because of his republican sympathy showed for the Polish insurgents. He
was elected deputy for the Côte-d'Or in July 1831.
In this pamphlet Cabet deplores the republican failure and severely attacks the
Camarilla ('court-
clique') of Louis-Philippe. He also discusses the revolutionary events of 1830/31 in Belgium, Italy and
Poland, 'emanated from the French revolution'. He arrives at the conclusion that it is 'a true declaration of
war on the despotic governments'. *Prudhommeaux A2.

Second edition. The chief work of
Etienne Cabet, an utopian novel that contains the full development of his system of Christian communism.
It was the source of inspiration for numerous followers in their attempts to establish Icarian colonies in the
United States. The first edition was published anonymously in a very small number of copies in 1839
(though dated 1840) under the title
Voyage et aventures de Lord Villiam Carisdall en Icarie and
is notoriously rare.

First edition. The second major
book of Etienne Cabet, the author of the famous utopian novel
Voyage en Icarie of 1839. In the
1840's Cabet tried to convert his fellow communists, those who favoured revolutionary violence to gain
political power and those who based themselves on purely materialistic principles like his former secretary
Dézamy, to his peaceful Icarian communism. In the present volume, reprinted twice before 1850,
Cabet explains that his communist society is based upon Christian principles. His 'true Christianism' is
deistic and rational, and his God is the god of equality and justice to the poor and oppressed. It yielded him
considerable support among the workers and in January 1848 a first group of 69 colonists left France to
establish an Icarian settlement in America. *Prudhommeaux A86 (dated August 1846!). Goldsmiths' 34899.

First edition. A pamphlet concerning

'Association against the anti-popular taxes on beverages and salt'. Etienne Cabet (1788-1856), the future
author of the seminal utopian novel
Voyage en Icarie, was a deputy for the Côte-d'Or
since 1831 and a lawyer by profession. He here acts as counsel for the defence. A (printed) note at the end
warns, that though this case has resulted in the suppression of similar associations in other departments, new
associations will be established 'everywhere', very soon in Nancy, Strassburg, Paris, and a number of other
cities! *Prudhommeaux A21.

A work in which a theory of social forms is developed with an eccentric mystic logic. Coëssin was
since his youth 'a head full of mysticism with inordinate political opinions'. An attempt to establish a newly
moulded republic in Cayenne failed when he became at odds with his friend Clouet. He returned to France
and in 1810 founded an institution for 'christian perfectibility', known as
Grey House, a centre
of mystical catholic philosophy and obscure living rules, with initiation rules not surprisingly including a
donation to the communal purse, governed by the indubitable prophet Coëssin.

First
edition. A clear testimony of Comte's positivist philosophy having turned into a religion of humanity. This
'positivist catechism' presents his project for a universal religion in the form of dialogues between a woman
and a 'priest of humanity'. In his preface he declares that 'in the name of the past and the future the
theoretical and practical servants of Humanity will take the general direction of worldly matters with
dignity, to construct finally the true providence, moral, intellectual, and material, irrevocable excluding
from political supremacy all kinds of slaves of God, catholics, protestants, or deists, as being both
stragglers and disurbers'. Included are a five-page

neuvième siècle and a folding
calendrier positiviste. Einaudi has a much

Late 19th or early 20th century green cloth, backs richly gilt, original printed wrappers (with the exception
of the upper wrapper of volume 2) preserved. Mild paperspotting throughout. A nice set.
First edition. The major book of Auguste Comte since the positivist philosophy exposed earlier
in his
Cours had developed into a 'religion of humanity'. In 1848 Comte had founded the
Positivist Society with the aim to act upon the revolutionary events. Though disappointed about
that he had by his death in 1857 left a school of followers of a universal system of knowledge and a
complete philosophy of human organisation.
Apparently the publication of the volumes did not proceed smoothly. The first volume was published by the
Librairie scientifique-industrielle de L.Mathias in cooperation with
Carilian-Goeury et V.or
Dalmont. The impressum of the second volume mentions the same publishers, but also (and firstly)
l'auteur, and additionally the
Librairie philosophique de Ladrange. The third and
fourth volumes were published by the author and Carilian-Goeury only.

First (only) edition.
An eye-witness account of the educational and agricultural community established at Hofwyl (near Berne) by
the Swiss philanthropist Emanuel von Fellenberg. The aim of the colony was to present a complete
education for both poor children and for children of the upper classes, combined with agricultural
instruction. The educational system at Hofwyl was strongly influenced by Pestalozzi, and the school counted
among its pupils the sons of Robert Owen, who had visited the colony in 1818.
In the preface to the present book the author writes that he had visited the colony twice, his first stay had
given him ample faith in the views of its founder and he conceived great expectations, but 'what I found
after revisiting Hofwyl six years later has surpassed all my expectations'.

First edition. The first
exposition of a socialist nation in Germany. In
The closed commercial state Fichte
outlines a national economy in which production, labour and distribution are centrally organized, 'protected'
against foreign competition. This will guarantee the right of labour for all people, according to Fichte the
chief right of man, and prevent both indigence and excessive wealth. Fichte's social ideas, directly
connected with the ethical outlook of his philosophy, have been of enormous influence on later German and
foreign ethical socialism. *Baumgartner & Jacobs 51. Kress B.4130. Stammhammer II,p.113.
