Paris, Gissey, Bordelet, Ganeau, 1750-1752, 4 volumes in-12 (17x9,5cm), lx-498pp.-3ff., 2ff.-519pp., 2ff.-xiv-540pp., 2ff.-525pp., veau marbré époque, dos à nerfs orné avec titre et pièce de tomaison grenat, tranches rouges, ex-libris en page de garde, frottements, 1 coiffe arasée 3 tableaux dépliants au tome 3 ; Tableau généalogique des Turcomans ; retraçant les origines et les branches principales des tribus turques et oghouzes. Tableau généalogique de Gengis-Khan et de ses successeurs, montrant la descendance des khans mongols et leur extension sur l'Asie et le Tableau généalogique de Tamerlan (Timour-Beg) ? établissant la filiation de la dynastie timouride et ses rapports avec les khans de Perse et de Transoxiane Vaste synthèse en quatre volumes retraçant, d'après les grandes compilations orientalistes de son temps, l'évolution du monde musulman depuis la prédication de Mahomet jusqu'à la chute du califat abbasside sous les coups des Mongols. Marigny ne connaît pas l'arabe : sa principale source est la Bibliothèque orientale de Barthélemy d'Herbelot (1697), qu'il suit fidèlement tout en la réorganisant en récit continu. Il y puise les notices d'auteurs arabes médiévaux tels qu'Elmacin, Abulféda ou Abulpharagius, et les complète par les travaux d'orientalistes européens ? Pococke (Specimen historiae Arabum), Simon Ockley (History of the Saracens), Reland (De religione Mohammedica), George Sale (traduction annotée du Coran, 1734) ? ainsi que par les réflexions providentialistes héritées de Bossuet. Le tome I décrit la vie du Prophète, la formation du premier califat et la succession des quatre premiers califes, d'après les récits rassemblés par d'Herbelot et Pococke. Le tome II suit la dynastie omeyyade (661-750), l'expansion vers l'Espagne, l'Afrique et l'Asie, puis la révolution abbasside qui fonde Bagdad comme capitale de l'empire. Le tome III présente l'apogée du califat abbasside, de Mansour à Haroun-al-Raschid, puis la lente désagrégation du pouvoir central, les rivalités religieuses, la montée des pouvoirs régionaux et les premières croisades. Enfin, le tome IV évoque la domination des Bouyides et des Seldjoukides, la progressive subordination des califes à des dynasties étrangères, puis l'irruption des hordes mongoles venues d'Asie centrale : Marigny consacre plusieurs chapitres à Gengis-Khan, à ses fils et petits-fils, en particulier à Hulagu-Khan, conquérant de Bagdad en 1258. Cette « époque des khans », qu'il considère comme la phase ultime de la décadence musulmane, marque selon lui la fin de l'unité du monde arabe et la transition vers la domination turco-mongole que reprendront plus tard les Ottomans.

Condition: Very Good. 1st edition. Diced calf, VG. 172+[iv]+94pp, marbled endpapers, gilt dentelles, all edges gilt, leather a little rubbed & upper hinge cracked but holding, Ex Libris Caroli Waldstein with their armorial bookplate, neat late 19th century annotation to the first blank, pages of the second title a little browned, a nice copy. Two political tracts, published in France in the early days of the Republic, which look back to the English protectorate & the lessons to be learnt. The first is a translation of 'Killing Noe Murder' [1658] a pamphlet which advocates the assassination of Oliver Cromwell. Authorship has been attributed to either Edward Sexby or Silius Titus. Cromwell is considered a tyrant, equal to Caligula and Nero - the people must rise up & rid them selves of such a despot, and tyrannicide can not be regarded as an act of murder. The second work, published in 1797 is based upon the 'The Syracusan Tyrant, or the Life of Agathocles' by Richard Perrinchief, originally published in 1661, an attack on Oliver Cromwell presented as a biography of Agathocles. Both works probably relating to Thermidor & the the overthrow of revolutionary radical Maximilien Robespierre & a retreat from more radical goals and strategies during a revolution. 200 grams.

Condition: Bon état. in-18, demi-percaline aubergine moderne, titre doré en long, 23 pp. Né au village de Marigny, près de Nevers, et mort en 1670, l'auteur entra de bonne heure dans les ordres, mais ne fut jamais qu'un abbé de cour, coureur de ruelles et bel esprit. Familier du cardinal de Retz, il prit une part active aux intrigues de la Fronde et aux libelles dirigés contre Mazarin, avant de se placer sous la protection du prince de Condé, qui aimait ses bons mots. Dans le présent poème satirique, l'abbé s'en donne à coeur joie contre les marguilliers, les plus zélés de ses paroissiens qui l'accusaient de bâcler son office ! Le présent exemplaire, auquel manque la page de titre, appartient à la seconde édition de 1673, identifiable d'après Brunet grâce au fait qu'elle comprend 505 vers et non 504. Ex-libris gravé.

First edition of a popular work at the time.Abbé de Marigny (1690-1762), French historian, covers here the history of the Caliphs from Mahomet to the death of Mostazem, a period of more than 600 years. Contains a long preface of earlier works by Herbelot, Rollin and Renaudot. Cox i, p. 228. Gay 3586. Graesse iii, 399. Thonnelier, Bibl. orientale, 3225.This is an important history, covering the period from the foundation of Islam down to the death of the last Abbasid caliph Al-Musta'sim (reigned 1242-1258), executed following the Mongol sack of Baghdad. The Abbé François Augier de Marigny (c.1690-1762), who knew no Arabic, based his work on Barthelemy Herbelot's Bibliotheque orientale (1697), which in turn drew on the immense Arabic bibliography, the Kashf al-Zunun by the 17th-century Ottoman polymath Hadji Khalfa (Katip Çelebi). "Marigny's history was a popular work aimed at a general readership" and was translated into German by the writer and philosopher Gotthold Ephraim Lessing, who defended Marigny from criticism "on the grounds that he had used the best non-Arabic sources then available, and that a history of this kind is much better than no history at all. But the real motive for his defense ? is his own sympathy with the Islamic world and his desire to publicise Marigny's positive account of Arab civilisation" (Nisbet, p. 154).
