First edition.
Work whose collection title is "Saint-Simonian Religion", a curious quasi-sectarian economic movement led by Prosper Enfantin, under the honorary title of Supreme Father. This ideological movement, originally based on the socio-economic and political doctrine of Claude-Henri de Rouvroy de Saint-Simon, promotes confidence in technical progress, the certainty that it is in a moral industry that the condition of happiness, freedom and emancipation resides. Under the influence of Prosper Enfantin, the movement becomes a religion, with some attempts at communities.

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.".

Théorie des Quatre Mouvemens et des Destinées Générales. Prospectus et Annonce de la Découverte.

First edition.
Founding work of Fourierism.
It is in this book that Charles Fourier sets out for the first time his theories on the organization of human societies. Discoveries, which, according to him, is on a par with Newton's theory of gravitation. Fourier defines four phases of universal history (ascending chaos, ascending plenitude, descending plenitude, descending chaos), each phase subdivided into a multitude of times. Humanity is currently going through the fifth time of the first phase: Civilization. The revelation to humanity of "passionate attraction" will bring about Harmony, a phase of bliss in which Fourier's Utopia is realized.
When it was published, no one understood anything about this work, riddled with neologisms, divisions and subdivisions, extravagant considerations... the press passed over the book in silence and Fourier, annoyed that he was not recognized as a Genius, would not publish again for fourteen years.

Rare untouched copy.

First edition.
Copy signed by the author.
This treatise was intended, in the author's mind, to replace his theory of the four movements, the publication of which had met with little success.
He describes in a more practical way the phase of Harmony, in fact, it is the Rule (in the monastic sense) of his Phalanstery. Man is total there: cultivating his vegetable garden in the morning, composing poems in the afternoon, craftsman in the evening. Life is very finely regulated there: constant activity, dietetics (which he calls Gastrosophy), sexuality. Among the Fourierists, the union is free, each lustful preference accepted, but taxonomic passion of the moment, each sexual taste is classified, subdivided, organized... Fourier thus defines seventy-six types of cuckolding...
With the Supplement to the foreword paginated LXV-LXXX which is found in few copies.

"Brand-new views on the teaching of one of the positive sciences, formerly cultivated, that Fourier was most fond of. The procedures he indicates, and particularly that of the Theory of Causes in Creation, are related to his system of Universal Unity. This piece is very curious. " (notice from the 'catalogue raisonné de l'école sociétaire', 1842).

Copy which was bound for 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 African Agricultural Union and became the main leader and financial support from the Lyon School of Society in the 1850s. He created a “Fourierist” bank which notably financed the Texas phalanstery. In 1864, he left Lyon and his career as a surgeon to go to Paris to reorganize the School of Society and devote himself to writing Fourierist treatises.

First edition.
Rare offprint of an article published in the journal Champagne catholique.
This journal was created at the end of the July Monarchy to defend moral and religious interests against the anticlerical political groups that were beginning to organize. Here the article targets Fourier's system, of which Victor Considérant was then the best-known promoter.
"His ideas of association are destined, without doubt, to play an important role in the future developments of civilization; we must deplore that Fourier has cast disfavor on them, by associating them with the deepest immorality." (p.35).

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.

Le Sept Avril à Besançon. 

Besançon, J. Bonvalot, 1847.
More Details >
Sold

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!".
