"The Principles of Philosophy" by René Descartes is a fundamental work of Western philosophy. In this treatise, Descartes sets out his vision of the world, based on metaphysical and physical principles. He develops his method of doubt, his famous "cogito, ergo sum" (I think, therefore I am), and his conceptions on the nature of the soul and the body.

Le Sept Avril à Besançon.

First edition.
The political banquet was born during the French Revolution. In 1789, in all cities of France, the open-air banquet, in the streets, was a new form of sociability to affirm patriotic enthusiasm and the unity of the Nation. During these civic meals, new liberties were celebrated.

Under the reign of Louis-Philippe, the political banquet was reborn as a means of circumventing the ban on political gatherings imposed by the reactionary government of Minister Guizot.

Fourierists, after the death of Charles Fourier in 1837, adopted this practice and met each year to celebrate his birthday (April 7, 1772) with a banquet. In Paris, in the provinces, and abroad, numerous banquets were thus organized, during which speakers took turns extolling the social theories of their master and proposing many toasts.

In 1847 and 1848, this subversive function of the banquet spread to all political factions and gained momentum. In February 1848, the prefect of police in Paris banned a banquet. Following this ban, a protest demonstration turned into an insurrection within a few days, bringing an end to the July Monarchy.

This account of the Besançon banquet in 1847 includes toasts by Just Muiron: "To the genius of Fourier!", Ledoux: "To the organization of labor!", Renaud: "To the confusion of false wisdom!", Vuillemin: "To all the benefactors of humanity!".

The work of a philosopher who was won over to the ideas of the Lumières, Blanchet is resolutely modern: the 18th century is marked by the reign of science and the arts, and the passions of modern man are the subject of vibrant praise, including self-esteem, because it is they which allow the realization of the great projects of humanity, which a Diderot would not deny.

First edition.
Pierre de Besse, preacher from the beginning of the 17th century was inspired by the Greek philosopher Heraclitus, whose legend, peddled by Diogenes Laerce, said that he was perpetually in tears in front of the fate of men to draw from it a Christian Heraclitus desperate for the sins of the Men.
He will publish 3 years later the "Christian Democrite" showing a hilarious Democrite in front of the world as it is.

These two books did a lot to popularize the archetypes of a weeping Heraclitus and a laughing Democritus, which can be found in many works of art throughout the 17th century. One thinks in particular of the "Weeping Philosopher" of Rubens painted around 1636, or the Democrites of Velasquez and Rembrandt.
