Original manuscript.
Medicine course given in Caen during the year 1734-1735 by François Marescot who was Professor of Medicine and Botany between 1718 and 1747. He is one of the founders of the Jardin des Plantes in Caen.
This medical course is divided into four parts, similar to the manuscript of the Muséum d'Histoire naturelle (Ms 795/1) of which the first part is also missing.

The writer is Gabriel François Hamelin de Préfosse (1713-1776) who was a doctor of medicine in Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue.

s.l., s.n., 1831.

1200 €

Manuscript proposing one of the first directories of homeopathic medicines in the French language through a translation of the work by Georg Adolph Weber: "Systematische Darstellung der reinen Arzneiwirkungen aller bisher geprüften Symptome" published in German in 1831.
The work will not be published in French only in 1833 with a translation by the Swiss homeopath Peschier under the title "Systematic exposition of the pure pathogenetic effects of all the remedies put to date in experience" (Geneva, Cherbuliez, 1833).
Our manuscript uses the same two-part structure as the German edition and should probably precede the French edition. The binding is typical of the 1830s, we are thus at the very beginning of the development of homeopathy in Europe under the impetus of the German school directed by Hannemahn (1755-1843) of whom Weber was a disciple.
It is in Switzerland and in Lyon that homeopathy in French language develops, Count Sébastien Des Guidi creates in 1830 the Homeopathic Society Lyonnaise and opens its consultations, there are 5 or 6 homeopaths in France in 1832 then 25 in 1833, 52 in 1835. (Cf. Bariety, "The beginnings of homeopathy in France", 1969)

Witness to the beginnings of homeopathy in France.

Documents de travail d'un société des sciences de Marseille. 

Marseille, s.n., 1740.
More Details >
450 €

Interesting set of working documents of a Scienfitic Society from Marseille in the 18th century.
At the beginning of the eighteenth century two projects of a foundation of a Marseille Academy clashed, the first wanted to devote himself solely to Sciences, the second on the model of the French Academy, wanted to focus on Letters. It is the second project supported by the governor of Provence which won the support of Louis XV and the Academy of Belles-Lettres de Marseille was founded in 1726. It was only in a second time, in 1766, that it will open up to Sciences and the Arts.
We imagine the dismay of Marseilles scientists during the interval, and it is probably this frustration which is at the origin of the creation of the Société des Sciences de Marseille of which we present some documents here.
Lot consisting of 6 pieces:
- 3 transcripts of speeches, one of which addresses the question of the rules of the "Academy" which excluded the religious. It offers openness to abbots and monks, those with interest libraries, but seeking a solution that avoids animosities between the different orders.
- Speech by the perpetual secretary summarizing the work of the Academy during the period 1739-1740.
- Work report: Geometry of Mr Gérard, Mechanics of Mr De Pontis.
- Bundle of 10 tickets, "Tasks of the Academicians for 1741": Each academician offers on a small autograph ticket signed the scientific work they undertake to address during the year 1741. We find the names of Ganteaume, De Pontis , Pelissery, Gérard, Saint-Jacques, Roussin.

Original manuscript.
The content seems to include a selection of articles from Abbé Rozier's Cours complet d'agriculture which was published in the form of a dictionary from 1781 to 1800.
Our dictionary stops at the article "Rhue des jardins" which will not appear than in 1789 in Volume VIII of the Cours de Rozier.
Our manuscript, whose writer is unknown, is dated 1786, when Rozier was then a professor at the Practical School of Agriculture in Lyon. This manuscript may therefore be a transcription of the course given by Rozier in Lyon before its publication.

Cours d'Histoire Constitutionnelle donnés à l'École libre des sciences politiques.

2000 €

Original manuscripts.
Rare and well-preserved set of two constitutional history courses given at Sciences Po Paris in 1886 by the founders of the school: Emile Boutmy and Alexandre Ribot.
Perfectly readable and careful manuscripts by a writer who will remain unknown who was a listener of Emile Boutmy's course on the Constitution of the United States in May-June 1886 and the course on the French Constitution since 1789 given by Alexandre Ribot in February-March 1886.
Created by Emile Boutmy in the aftermath of the 1870 defeat and the Paris Commune, the École Libre des Sciences Politiques (now known as Sciences-Po) aimed to teach political science as a positive science. She will form the elite of french politicians until today.
1886 was the last year in which Boutmy gave his course on the Constitution of the United States; we know a transcription of it in the notes left by Pierre de Coubertin who was also a listener of this course the same year. A comparison of the transcription of Coubertin's notes and our manuscript leads us to believe that our collection is more faithful (seems to be a word for word transcription) of Boutmy's teaching.

Alexandre Ribot's course on the French Constitution (second part of a more extensive course on European constitutions) leaves an important part on the birth of the Third Republic whose constitutional laws were only passed in 1875.
