During the 1840s, Fourierists led by Victor Considerant engaged in extensive written propaganda, especially through the Society for the Propagation and Realization of Fourier's Theory, aiming to inspire individuals to initiate or fund experiments in communal living. The Sociétaire Bookstore in Paris produced a vast amount of literature. Catalogs detailing their publications with summaries were frequently released, often accompanying other works. The 1842 catalog serves as an illustration.

Ramsay highlights the life of Turenne, his campaigns during the Thirty Years' War, his victories at the battles of Rocroi, the Dunes, and Salzbach. He also describes his relations with Louis XIV, his role within the French army, and his influence on modern warfare.

In this work, the author makes a biting satire of the government, religion and morals of the Spanish. King Charles III complained to the French government and threatened to close the entrance to his kingdom to all French people. Parliament ordered, in February 1786, that a copy of "Voyage en Espagne" would be delivered to the flames by the hand of the executioner. This auto-da-fé delighted de Langle who had written: "My work will surely be reduced to ashes: so much the better! (...) It brings good luck; the public likes burnt works.".

Souvenirs de Madame de Caylus.

Edition published the same year as the original edition.
Bengesco [II, pp.415-417] comments at length on the difference between this edition and that of Geneva at Robert. The text in Rey's edition goes as far as the hardback edition of the Robert edition except for the last sentence. S
ome hypotheses suggest that it was Diderot who had this Amsterdam edition published, whereas Madame de Caylus's manuscript had been passed from hand to hand for several years. However, a few rare copies have a 22-page notebook with a preface by Voltaire which is absent from our copy [cf. Bengesco].

Gabriel Désiré Laverdant (1810-1884), was director of the Phalange in 1840, he was one of those Fourierists who sought the rapprochement of the Fourierist movement with the Catholics, he called himself a "phalansterian Catholic".
François Barrier, central personality of the Fourierist movement, he adhered to the Fourierist doctrine in 1843. He was, in 1845, one of the founders of the Phalansterian project of the Agricultural Union of Africa and became the main animator and financial supporter of the Societary School of Lyon in the 1850s. He created a "Fourierist" bank which would notably finance the Texas Phalanstery. In 1864, he left Lyon and his career as a surgeon to join Paris to reorganize the Societary School and devote himself to writing Fourierist treatises.
