1p, 4to. On aged paper, with traces of glue from mount on reverse, and six short diagonal scalpel-cuts, four of them across the text (not the signature). He has received with 'beaucoup de satisfaction' the unnamed recipient's 'ouvrage intitulé Panigraphie, que vous m'avez fait l'honneur de m'offrir'. He finds 'ce produit des [sic] vos talents [.] d'autant plus precieux, qu'il facilite l'etude des quatre langues les plus interessantes de l'Europe'. He will recommend the work 'à nos amateurs des langues en orient'. In thanking him for 'cet offre', he expresses happiness at having made the recipient's acquaintance, 'quoique par écrit'. 'Panigraphie' is clearly a mistake for 'Pangraphie', but no record to the publication of a work with that title has been discovered. In Mannheim in 1807 Heinrich Bürmann printed a 'Programme de la pangraphie, partie fondamentale de la caractéristique syntactique, système de notation universelle', and in 1850 Chambers' Edinburgh Journal reported that 'a Monsieur Ivichievich, of Wallachia, submits a plan of what he calls 'Pangraphie,' or universal writing'. The earliest use of the word 'pangraphic' ('writing on all subjects or in all forms') recorded in the OED is in 1821.
