lyn57985
(København, 1862). Folio. (52,5 x 36,5 cm.). Samtidigt hldrbd. Ryg slidt og revner i skindet ved kapitæler. Indeholder 16 Sectioner med ialt 65 kortplaner i dobbelt-folio, enkelte endnu større, alle litograferede og med sektionstitler. De fleste med signaturer i farver og kolorerede efter signaturerne, som omfatter linieføring, veje, broer, amts-sogne-by etc. - skel, veje, broer, niveauer, viadukter etc. etc. og med indtegning og angivelse af samtlige berørte matrikler, skove, vandløb, søer etc.Sectionerne har overskrifterne "Jydske Jernbane 1ste - 10 + (11.-16.) Section": 1. Aarhus-Randers. - 2. Langaa-Viborg. - 3. Viborg-Skive-Struer. - 3A. Viborg-Skive-Struer II. - 4. Struer-Holstebro. - 5. Nyborg-Odense-Lille Belt. - 5A. Nyborg-Odense-Lille Belt II. - 6.

Givetvis kun litograferet i et meget begrænset antal, antageligt til brug for tilbudsgivere og som angivelse af indholdet af det omfang m.h.t. til linieføringen som beskrevet i anlægsloven af 1861. Arbejderne blev udført 1862-69.Kort efter vedtagelse af 1861-loven sendte staten to mand fra hærens ingeniørkorps til området mellem Vejle og Århus samt Midtjylland for at undersøge terrænet. Ingeniør Niels Henrik Holst (senere driftsbestyrer for de jysk-fynske statsbaner) og Anton Hoffmann undersøgte otte mulige linier, heraf gik de seks gennem Horsens, mens de to sidste løb længere mod vest med en sidebane til Horsens. Flere af de foreslåede linier gik vest om Mossø og via Ry, da man herved opnåede to ting. Dels undgik man det vanskelig terræn nær den jyske østkyst, og dels fik banen forbindelse til Silkeborgsøerne og Gudenåen. Holst og Hoffmann understregede dog i deres rapport, at banen burde føres gennem Horsens, og forbindelsen til Gudenåen kunne i stedet skabes ved trafik med dampskibe ad en vandvej, dvs. en kombination af gravede kanaler og søerne, fra Skanderborg sø eller Fuldbro Mølle (nær Tåning) ved Mossø, 6 km vest for Skanderborg. En linieføring vest om Mossø samt sidebanen til Horsens blev opgivet, da man ønskede en kortere linie Vejle-Århus. Loven om strækningen Vejle-Horsens-Fuldbro Mølle-Stilling-Århus blev vedtaget i januar 1863.

lyn60782
London, Printed by J. Macock for Luke Favvne, 1651. 4to. In contemporary full calf with four raised bands. Wear to extremities. Pp. 541-606 with worm-tract in inner margin, not affecting text. Last leaves with marginal miscolouring, but generally a good copy. (18), 624 pp. First edition of Manton’s commentary on James which not only is regarded as being his finest work but also as being “one of the best expositions ever written on James”. (Beeke, Meet the Puritans). Thomas Manton, born on March 31, 1620, in Lydeard St. Lawrence. Thomas received his early education at the free school in Tiverton, Devon. At the age of sixteen, he enrolled at Wadham College, Oxford, where he pursued his studies. He earned his Bachelor of Arts degree in 1639, followed by a Bachelor of Divinity degree in 1654, and finally, a Doctorate of Divinity degree in 1660, all from Oxford University. Ordained to the diaconate at the age of twenty in 1640 by Joseph Hall, Manton served as a lecturer at the parish church of Sowton near Exeter, Devonshire, for three years. Manton quickly rose to prominence as a leading Presbyterian figure in London, leveraging his influence to advocate for the establishment of Presbyterian church governance and to promote public peace during turbulent periods. He played a significant role in the Westminster Assembly, where he was appointed one of three clerks, and delivered numerous sermons before Parliament during the Commonwealth era. “Manton was remembered at his funeral as “the king of preachers.” Bates said that he never heard him deliver a poor sermon and commended his ability to “represent the inseparable connection between Christian duties and privileges.” Archbishop James Ussher described Manton as “a voluminous preacher” and “one of the best in England.” That is certainly evident from Manton’s many writings, most of which are sermons.” (Beeke, Meet the Puritans).

lyn60823
London, Robert Young, 1633. Folio. In contemporary full calf with five raised bands. Small paper-label pasted on to upper part of spine. Wear to extremities. Boards with scratches and a few wormholes, corners bumped and capitals chipped. Missing small part of leather on lower compartment. Vague dampstaining throughout and a few worm-tracts. Engraved title-page. (30), 345, (1), 351-416, 415-657, (1) + frontispiece. ‎Rare later English translation of Du Bartas exceptionally popular "La Semaine" and "Seconde semaine" and several miner poems. La Semaine became immensely popular and was quickly translated into most European languages. Du Bartas was extremely popular in early modern England, and was still being read widely in the later seventeenth century even as his reputation in France began to decline. La Semaine was first translated into English in 1598 (“No perfect copy know” Lowndes) and the present folio-edition which include several of his lesser popular work, was first published in 1605 and was reprinted six times up until 1641. All editions are scarce and are rarely found in the trade. “No other poem (besides those in the Bible itself) was read as widely as the Semaines were across early modern English and Scottish society. Based on references to Sylvester in print, Snyder believed that ‘Clearly everyone in pre-Restoration England who had received a literary education read the ‘Weekes’ ande almost all…. Admired it’. According to Gordon Braden, it was ‘probably the most popular vernacular poem in translation in early modern England’.” (Auger, Du Bartas' Legacy in England and Scotland). Lowndes II, p. 679

FOURIER, (JEAN BAPTISTE JOSEPH).
Herman H. J. Lynge & Søn A/S
lyn51179
Paris, Firmin Didot Frères, (1830) 1831. 4to. Contemp. hcalf. Richly gilt spine. A paperlabel pasted on top of spine. (4),XXIV,258 pp. and 1 folded engraved plate. A few minor brownspots. A fine, wide-margined copy. Scarce first edition (with the reprinted titlepage 1831 instead of 1830).Fourier's "Analyse des equations determines" constitutes a highly important work on the theory of equations, a work which occupied Fourier throughout his life and the last thing that he wrote. The work contains numerous theories that had not previously been published, e.g. his method of solution and applications of linear qualities, due to which he actually anticipated linear programming.The work was of great importance to Fourier himself, who had attempted to publish some of his important results on the subject as early as 1789 and who later ended up in a priority-dispute due to the much delayed publication of one of these results (the Fourier-Budan theorem). His final opus constitutes his final preparation of the Fourier-theorem as well as many other important theories and results connected to his theory of equations, and it thus presents us with his final views on this important science. "[H]e had almost finished only the first two of its seven "livres". His friend Navier edited it for publication in 1831, inserting an introduction to establish from attested documents (including the delayed 1789 paper) Fourier's priority on results which had by then become famous. Perhaps Fourier was aware that he would not live to finish the work, for he wrote a synopsis of the complete book which also appeared in this edition. The synopsis indicated his wide interests in the subject, of which the most important not yet mentioned were various means of distinguishing between real and imaginary roots, refinements of the Newton-Raphson method of approximating to the root of an equation, extensions to Daniel Bernoulli's rule for the limiting value of the ratio of successive terms of a recurrent series, and the method of solution and applications of linear inequalities. Fourier's remarkable understanding of the last subject makes him the great anticipator of linear programming." (D.S.B., V:98). - Honeyman IV:1361.

London, Nature, 1932 a.1939. 4to. Blank wrappers. All 4 extracted from "Nature" Nos. 3252 (Febr. 1932), 3615 (Febr.1939), 3616 ( Febr. 1939) and 3620 (March 1939). All four papers in first edition. In 1932 James Chadwich proved the existence of th atomic particles carrying no electric charge which, for this reason, he called 'neutrons' (the first item offered here). "In 1934 Senator Corbino, head of the physics department at the University of Rome, urged Enrico Fermi and his collaborators, among whom was Brune Pontecorvo, to patent a proces they had perfected for the production of artificial radio-activity by slow neutron bombardement. This process was a by-product of repetitions and enlargements of a discovery by Irene Curie and her husband Fredeic Joliot that the bombardment of certain light elements with alpha particles induced radio-activity. Further experiments conducted in 1938 at Berlin by Hahn and Strassmann were reported by Lise Meitner...She and her nephew, O.R. Frisch, working with Niels Bohr's laboratory, found the true explanation of these phenomena. The interpolation of a neutron into the nucleus of a uranium atom caused it to divide into two parts and to release energy amounting to about 200,000,000 electron volts. This process bore such a close similarity to the division of a living cell that Frisch suggested the use of the term 'fission' to describe it.....Halban, Jolio and Kowarski established the theoretical possibility of a self-perpetuating reaction..."

London, for Tho. Collins and John Ford in Fleet-Street, and Will. Cademan and Th. Popes Head New-Exchange Strand, 1673. 8vo. In contemporary full sprinkled calf with five raised bands and gilt lettering and ornamentation to spine. Small paper-label pasted on to top of spine. Previous owner's name in contemporary hand to lower margin of title-page. Light occassional marginal browning and worm-tract to last 4 leaves. Overall a good copy. (6), 185 pp. With numerous typographical errors in pagination, but complete. Often referred to as the second edition of this rare collection of poems. No poet is listed by name, but John Sheffield, Marquis of Normanby, Charles Sedley, George Etherege, and Aphra Behn have been identified as authors. A shorter version in two parts had appeared the year before, so all though technically being a second edition, this version contains new material. These authors are all associated with the period of English literature known as the "Restoration Era" (1660-1700) and were influential figures in the literary and theatrical scene of late 17th century England.The period was marked by a resurgence of the arts, theater, and literature characterized by wit, satire, and exploration of social norms.

Nurnberg, Sturmer Verlag, 1936. 8vo-oblong (248 x 200 mm). In the original half cloth binding with coloured pictorial paper covered boards. All edges red. Light wear to extremities, an overall very nice and clean copy. (44) pp. 21 full page anti-Semitic color drawings by Philipp Rupprecht, included in the pagination. Rare first edition of one of the most infamous documents of National Socialist propaganda aimed at children. Widely condemned for its content and intent, this book represents a grotesque distortion of children’s literature, using colourful illustrations and simplistic language to convey deeply antisemitic ideology. As Hürlimann writes, it is "Das grauenhafteste Dokument, das menschlicher Sadismus je in Bilderbuchform hervorgebracht hat." (Hurlimann 140). (i.e. English: “the most horrifying document that human sadism has ever produced in picture-book form”) Published by Stürmer-Verlag, this was the first of three children’s books produced under Julius Streicher’s direction - each aimed at spreading Nazi racial ideology among young readers. These books are among the most disturbing examples of propaganda from the Third Reich: deliberately designed to appear innocent, yet filled with messages of hate and dehumanization. Disguised as educational material, the book taught children the supposed “proper roles” of Aryans and Jews in Nazi Germany, planting the regime’s most harmful ideas in the minds of the young. Today it stands as a chilling reminder of how totalitarian regimes can use even children’s literature to spread their ideology.

SWEDENBORG, EMANUEL. - THE COSMOLOGY.
Herman H. J. Lynge & Søn A/S
lyn50434
Dresden et Leipzig, Frederik Hekelius, 1734. Folio. Contemp. full mottled calf. Upper half of spine rebacked. Raised bands. Lower part of spine gilt. A crack to leather at lower part of fronthinge, cover not loose. Engraved portrait. (16),452 pp. and 28 engraved plates on 26 sheets. A dampstain in upper part of inner margins throughout, otherwise clean and wide-margined. The plates with some browning. Scarce first edition of Swedenborg's main scientific work. The volume also form part one of his "Opera Philosophica et Mineralia"."In his Principia rerum naturalium (Leipzig, 1734), probably conceived as a counterpart to Newton’s Principia, he sought a comprehensive physical explanation of the world based on mathematical and mechanical principles. While remaining faithful to the general principles of Cartesian natural philosophy, which he had learned while studying at Uppsala, Swedenborg elaborated upon them. According to his cosmogony the physical reality has developed from the mathematical point, which was an entity between infinite and finite. Through a vortical movement implanted on the point, a series of material particles developed (the "first finiata, "the second finita",and so on) that eventually led to the cosmos in its present state. In contrast to Descartes, Swedenborg believed that the planets had developed from the chaotic solar mass through expansion of its surrounding shell, which finally joined to form a belt along the equatorial plane of the sun. It then exploded, forming the planets and the satellites. Although the basic construction of Swedenborg’s thought heralded the later planetary theories of Buffon, Kant, and Laplace, there is nothing to indicate that it exerted any direct influence on posterity." (DSB).In 1738, Swedenborg's magnum opus was placed on the "Index Librorum Prohibitorum".

Berlin, August Hirschwald, 1895. 8vo. In contemporary half cloth with gilt lettering to spine. In: "Verhandlungen der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Chirugie, Vierundzwanzigster Congress abgehalten zu Berlin, 17. - 20. April 1895". A few occassional underlignings i margin, otherwise fine and clean. Pp. 211-217. [Entire volume:] XXXIII, (3), 171, (3), 767 pp + 7 folded coloured plates. First edition of Czerny's landmark paper containing the very first account of a breast augmentation, or breast enhancement surgery, by moving a patient's benign fat-based tumor, known as a lipoma, into the breast to correct asymmetry - a surgery which earned him the title of being "The Father of Plastic Surgery'. "Czerny's patient was a forty-one-year-old singer who reported swelling and pain in her left breast, which had prompted her to seek medical attention. Czerny discovered that a tumor was causing the symptoms in her breast, which he had attributed to a constant, lingering infection of the breast tissue. After repeated consultations with Czerny and another surgeon, the woman agreed to the removal of her left breast. However, because the singer had very large breasts, the removal of one would result in significant asymmetry of her body. Upon further examination, Czerny discovered that the woman also had a fist sized growth on the right side of her lower back. During the operation, Czerny removed both the tumor in the woman's breast and the tumor on her back, and then used tissue from the tumor on her back to reconstruct her left breast. Half a year later, the woman still had tenderness around the operation site on her breast. By December 1894, about one year later, the patient had reported no more tenderness in her breast, and while her reconstructed breast was well-formed, she did note it was slightly smaller and firmer than her right breast. Czerny published his results in 1895." (Zheng, Vincenz Czerny) "He has been called the "Father of Plastic Surgery" for performing the first breast reconstruction. In this work, Czerny discusses the removal of a lipoma (benign fat cell tumor) and transferring it to a woman who had previously undergone a mastectomy. Czerny realized that personal appearance, not just organ reconstruction, was important in motivating a surgeon to operate upon a patient. This is a basic tenet still held and practiced today" (Grolier, The History of Plastic Surgery, no. 55).

RENAN, ERNEST.

lyn35937
Paris, Michel Lévy Frères, 1863. 8vo. Orig. green hcloth w. gilt spine. Upper back hinge cracked and spine a bit crooked. Corners a bit bumped. A very nice copy w. only occasional minor brownspotting. Old owner's inscription to title-page. W. half-title ("Histoire des Origines du Christianisme. Livre premier"). (4), LIX, (1), 462, (2) pp. True first edition of this seminal classic on the life of Jesus, which caused an immediate scandal when it appeared. Renan's masterpiece, which constitutes the first attempt to write a biography of Jesus the man and strongly puts forth the notion that the Bible too can be subject to historical investigation and critical scrutiny. The work enraged the Roman Catholic Church but was an immediate success in most of Europe. "In six months sixty thousand copies of the French edition had been sold and edition succeeded edition. Renan regarded the book as the first of a series on the "Origins of Christianity", which he continued with "The Apostles" (1866), "Saint Paul" (1869), "The Anti-Christ" (1873), "The Gospels" (1877), "The Christian Church" (1879) and "Marcus Aurelius" (1881) but none of these emulated the success of the "Life of Jesus"... Immediate success was partly a "succès de scandale" but this would not have kept the book alive. It is Renan's approach to the subject and his beautiful prose that gave it lasting eminence." (PMM 352). This groundbreaking work analyses the personality of the man Jesus, -a figure created by Renan out of his mind, but based on historical sources. "It is a pastoral idyll with the central figure a gentle, albeit oracular visionary, his power to work miracles a part of his unique personality -the son of man, but not the Son of God... In this great work it seems clear that the audience he has found was the one he sought: the general reading public rather than the limited coterie of scholars; and there is no doubt of the fact or the degree of his success." (PMM 352). "C'est le livre plus célèbre d'Ernest Renan (1823-1892) et le premier volume de l'Hisoire des origines du Christianisme"... on peut considérer cette "Vie de Jésus" comme une oeuvre de vulgarisation: l'auteur cherche à déterminer ce qui, au point de vue "scientifique", est de créance dans la vie du Nazaréen?" (Laffont-Bompiani IV:681). Apart from causing a world-wide scandal, the work was also a world-wide success, and no matter how many harsh words can be said about the historical and religious contents of the work, there is no doubt about the fact that it influenced the destiny of Catholicism decisively and that it is a masterpiece of 19th century French literature. It is very elegantly written and is renowned for its description of the historical setting, charming descriptions of sceneries, its penetrating psychological analysis and its overall style and class. "Il faut ajouter que la "Vie de Jésus" compte au nombre des livres les mieux écrits de son temps; le charme de la peinture des paysages, le pittoresque géneralement exact des évocations historiques, l'analyse pénétrante de l'âme des personnages, des seductions du style enfin, n'ont pas été pour rien dans le succès universel de cette oeuvre." (Laffont-Bompiani IV:681). Ernest Renan (1823-1892) was a French philologist, philosopher and historian. His father died when he was aged five, and his mother wanted him to become a priest. Until he was about 16 years old, he was trained by the Church, but due to his investigative and truth-seeking nature as well as his studies (e.g. Hebrew), he was in doubt as to the historical truth of the Scriptures, and with the help of his sister he chose his own path in life. "He studied intensively the languages of the Bible and filled a number of minor academic positions, frequently encountering difficulties because of the heterodoxy and outspokenness of his religious opinions." (Printing and the Mind of Man 352). In 1840 he began studying philosophy and later philology, in 1847 he took his degree as Agrégé de Philosophie and became master at the Lycée of Vendome. After having returned from a mission to Italy in the year 1850 where he gathered material for his historical-philosophical masterpiece, "Averroës et l'Averroisme", he was offered employment at the "Bibliothèque Nationale" (at the manuscript department). In 1861 he was chosen to become professor of Hebrew at the Collège de France, but because the emperor refused to ratify the appointment (inspired by the Clerical party), he was not established in the chair untill 1870. In 1878 he was elected for the Academy. Renan is considered a scholar of the greatest excellence and an impressive writer.

(Paris, Gauthier-Villars), 1885 a. 1886. 4to. No wrappers. In: "Comptes Rendus Hebdomadaires des Séances de L'Academie des Sciences", Tome 101 (No. 17), 102 (No. 9 + 15) a. 103. (No. 18). Titlepages to vol. 101, 102 a. 103. Pp. (765-) 848, (459-529), (835-) 886, (777-) 840. (Four entire issues offered). Pasteur's papers: pp. 765-772, 459-469, 835-838 a. 777-785.. A stamp to verso of titlepages. First printing of these groundbreaking papers in Immunology where Pasteur describes his rabies vaccine and the results he attained with it gave further proof of the value of attenuated virus as a protective inoculum against infective diseases in man and animals. THIS IS CONSIDERED PASTEUR'S GREATEST TRIUMPH (Garrison & Morton No. 2541)."The central problem in establishing a science of immunology was to discover methods of lowering the pathogenicity of the antigens while preserving their immunogenicity. In the case of smallpox (Jenner) this was done, according to the accepted interpretation, by utilizing strains accidentally attenuated through animal passage. In the present paper famous paper (the first paper offered), Pasteur shows how, for a disease of wide distribution among mammals, attenuation may be accomplished artificially."(Hall "A Source Book in animal Biology", pp. 528 ff.)."Pasteur revealed the enormous medical and economic potential of experimental biology. He himself developed only one treatment directly applicable to a human disease - his treatment for rabies - but his widely publicized and highly successful efforts on behalf of the germ theory were immediately credited with saving much money and many lives. It is for this reason above all that he was recognized and honored during his lifetime and that his name remains a household word." (DSB).Garrison & Morton No. 2541. - Parkinson "Breakthroughs" 1885 H.

LEX REGIA - KONGELOVEN.

(København), 1709. Folio. (53x36,5 cm.). Nyere smukt helldrbd. i lysebrun kalv. Ryg med 5 ophøjede bind. Forgyldt skindtitel på ryg. Stregforgyldninger på permer samt stor oval med forgyldt titel på forpermen. Indvendige false i skind. I matchende kassette med kanter i skind. 19 kobberstukne folioblade. Trykt på svært skrivepapir. Velbevaret eksemplar. Genoptrykket (eller måske mere korrekt: andet oplag eller re-issue !) af den danske Enevældes Grundlov, Kongeloven, som først blev udgivet 44 år efter udstedelsen (1665). Her foreligger loven som genudgivelsen fra ca. 1880, men trykt med de originale kobberplader, således at den kun adskiller sig fra det oprindelige tryk ved papirets alder og kvalitet. Teksten blev udfærdiget i kobberstik udelukkende for at afskære muligheden for eftertryk, en fremgangsmåde, som er enestående i Danmark. Frederik Rostgaard stod for udfærdigelsen, og det skyldes ham, at værket er blevet et af højdepunkterne i dansk bogkunst.Second issue (around 1880, printed with the original copper-plates) of this monumental work in Danish bookproduction. The Royal Law established the absolute right of the Monarch to rule and defined the line of royal succession, and was more rigorous than other monarchal laws of Europe at the time. The titles and the text are engraved throughout by Michael Røg.

BEAUMARCHAIS, (PIERRE-AUGUSTE CARON DE).
Herman H. J. Lynge & Søn A/S
lyn61665
Paris, Ruault, 1785. Royal8vo (Bookblock: 247 x 147 mm). In a beautiful contemporary full red morocco binding (Anker Kyster) with gilt lettering and ornamentation to spine. Gilt borders to boards, inner gilt dentelles and gilt ornamentation to edges of boards. Single-line ruled fillets to boards and gilt oval shaped decoration centered on boards. All edges gilt. With very light occassional marginal browning. Leaf M8 and N4 with closed tear. Plate no. 2 with a few stains. An overall very nice large paper copy on véin. Half title with list of 12 booksellers and "Avis de l' Editeur" regarding a pirated Amsterdam edition on the verso. LI, (1), (1)-199, (2) pp. + 5 engraved plates by Lienard, Halbou und Lingee, from the illustrations by St-Quentin. The famous Kehl-edition (printed the same year as the original, also referred to as first edition, second issue – occasionally second edition), regarded as being the most beautiful and sought after early edition. Beaumarchais used it as a way to combat piracy and counterfeiting of his play and it became an object of great desire among 19th-century bibliophiles. The original edition appeared without illustrations and almost immediately, five plates were added, drawn by St Quentin and engraved, the present edition printed in Kehl, with the new Baskerville type used for Voltaire, features the same 5 illustrations drawn by St Quentin for the original, but larger, more beautiful and engraved (plate 1, 3 and 5) by Liénard, (plate 2) by Halbou, (plate 4) by Lingée. (See Tchemerzine). “Le Mariage de Figaro" is the second play in Beaumarchais' Figaro trilogy following “The Barber of Seville” and preceding “The Guilty Mother”. It is a political and social satire aimed at aristocratic privilege and advocating for liberty and social justice. It was initially banned by Louis XVI, only to become an symbolic work of the pre-revolutionary period in France. This Kehl edition is often seen as both a literary milestone and a masterpiece of 18th-century printing, representing Beaumarchais' genius as both a playwright and publisher.

LAVOISIER, ANTOINE-LAURENT ET AL. - THE SALPETRE COMMISSION.
Herman H. J. Lynge & Søn A/S
lyn44923
Paris, Moutard, 1786. 4to. Contemp. full sprinckled calf with 5 raised bands on spine. Richly gilt compartments, title-and tomelabels with gilt lettering. A small nich to leather at middle of front hinge. A small tear to rear hinge at upper compartment. "Mémoires fe Mathematique et de Physique, Présentés à l'Academie des Sciences par divers Savans", Tome XI. (4),198,682 pp. Wide-margined, fine and clean. This collective work is the French Academy's monumental treatise on the chemistry and the production of Salpetre, a topic of great importence for the war-industry in making gunpowder. The volume contains papers by Macquer, Darcy, Lavoisier, Sage, Baumé, de la Rochefoucault, Clouer and an anonymous report on experiments made in England (CAVENDISH'S) on the composition of nitric acid....papers by Cornette, Thouvenel and Thouvenel, Le Lorgna, Gavinet and Chevrand, de Beunie, Romme, Clouet and Lavoisier, de Rochefoucault etc.(Partington III, p. 467 n)."The Regie des Poudres et Salpetres had the monopoly of refining salpetre from 1775 until it was suppressed during the Revolution. Until his retirement in 1791 the leading light in it was Lavoisier, who seems to have written its publications. - In 1775 the Academy offered a prize of 4000 livres for a process for procuring an abundant supply of salpetre,the announcement being written by Lavoisier. Altogether 66 papers were received and the prize was finally awarded in 1782 to the brothers Thouvenel, who gave a full account of nitre plantations. The material was published in 1786 in one volume by the Academy. In it Lavoisier describes 'Experiences sur la décomposition du nitre par le charbon' said to have been made in 1784..."(Partington III, pp. 466 ff.)."Peu de temps après que Lavoisier eut été nommé régisseur des poudres et salpêtres, il suggéra à Turgot, alors contrôleur général des finances, l'idée de charger l'Académie des sciences de décerner un prix au meilleur mémoire sur la formation du salpêtre. 'Académie nomma une commission dont Lavoisier fut le rapporteur ; c'est lui qui examina tous les mémoires présentés au concours, en fit l'analyse, et, quand l'Académie publia en 1786 un volume contenant l'histoire du prix du salpêtre et les mémoires présentés au concours, c'est encore Lavoisier qui en fut le rédacteur. Ce volume fait partie du Recueil des mémoires de mathématiques et de physique présentés à l'Académie royale des sciences par divers savants et lus dans ses assemblées (tome XI, contenant le Recueil des mémoires sur la formation et la fabrication du salpêtre, à Paris, de l'imprimerie Moutard, DCCLXXXVI). Sauf les mémoires des concurrents et un mémoire du duc de la Rochefoucault, ce volume est tout entier de la main de Lavoisier. Il est formé de deux parties ; la première est intitulée : Histoire de ce qui s'est passé relativement au prix proposé sur la formation du salpêtre ; la seconde partie comprend les mémoires présentés au concours ainsi que des mémoires de Lavoisier et Clouet, un mémoire sans signature, mais qui appartient à Lavoisier (le manuscrit autographe a été conservé), le mémoire du duc de La Rochefoucault, et les expériences de Lavoisier sur la décomposition du nitre par le charbon."
