Dujols n° 52 bis, cat. XXII, 1913 (pour une réimpression de 1841) : « Ouvrage dans le genre de la Nouvelle Atlantis de Bacon, de la Cité du Soleil, de Campanella, conçus dans un véritable esprit néoplatonicien et maçonnique. Morelly reprend, dans ce traité célèbre et fort rare, les anciennes traditions de Pythagore et de Platon, tempérées par l'initiation Chrétienne, et aboutit au Communisme, que le camp adverse accuse l'Institut Maçonnique de vouloir organiser dans le monde. Il est à peu près certain que le Communisme a été l'utopie des anciens Maçons comme des premiers Chrétiens, et ce grand et beau rêve de la Fraternité Universelle est entièrement à leur honneur. Mais tout change en ce monde, le Christianisme, la Maçonnerie et le reste, et sans être prophète, nous croyons pouvoir affirmer que Cléricaux et Francs-Maçons ne feront plus qu'un seul homme ? le Capitaliste ? armé jusqu'aux dents, et quelles dents ! quand viendra le ' Grand Soir ' » Rare édition originale.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. First Edition. A beautiful, fresh and complete copy in a contemporary calf binding; scarce thus. Housed in a full leather custom box. The first edition of Morelly's influential major work, in which a severe concept of economic equality introduces an entirely new utopian model. Hartig called it the 'oeuvre mâitresse de la pensée utopique du XVIII siècle. Many 19th-century writers admitted its influence, including Fourier, Cabet, Proudhon, Louis Blanc, Engels and Marx, who quoted Morelly on the dangers of private ownership. 'Morelly argued that the code of nature was completely communistic. Starting out from the proposition that moral evil, the essence of which was avarice, could be explained by social conditions Morelly portrayed and advocated an ideal communistic society in which it would be 'impossible to be depraved.' (.In many respects Morelly's system anticipates the rationalistic utopianism of Fourier.' (Kingsley Martin in ESS, vol. xi, pp. 10 ff).

Francfort, Aux dépens de la compagnie, 1770. 3 tomes en 1 volume in-12, plein veau époque, dos à nerfs orné, titre doré, toutes tranches rouges. 324 pp, 7 pp non chiffrées; 158 pp, 2 pp non chiffrées; 176 pp. Première édition collective pour "Les oeuvres morales de Mr. Diderot." Ex-libris gravé et armorié sur le contreplat supérieur, dont le nom a été gratté. Petit manque sur la coiffe inférieure, coins un peu frottés, papier un bruni par endroits. Le "Code de la Nature", souvent attribué à Diderot, est l'ouvrage le plus célèbre de Morelly. Il influença Gracchus Babeuf, Louis Blanc et les communistes du XIXème siècle, dont Marx.

Contemporary speckled calf, spine gilt in compartments, red morocco label, red sprinkled edges, a very fine and clean copy. FIRST EDITION of this proposal for the ideal state, which included unity of funds, public use of tools and products, equal education, communal self-sufficiency and the abolition of financial remuneration. See the long account of this book in the Nouvelle Biographie Générale: ?It is remarkable that these ideas, which were the most extreme of the socialist policies of the period, appeared at a time when political economy was being established on the principles of the wealth of nations. Morelly had a definite talent for rhetoric, and he laid emphasis on ideas of public prosperity; his philosophy was very attractive before its practicalities demonstrated its dangers; even Morelly did not appreciate its full significance. His Code de la Nature is both the last of the inert Utopias which, from Plato?s Republic to the Télèphe of Pechmeja, proposed a state of ideal well-being with no practicability, and the first of the more alarming Utopias produced by the French proletariat with the idea of immediate application? (in translation). Goldsmiths 9074. Kress 5457. Higgs 1107. Hartig & Soboul, Pour une histoire de l?Utopie en France au 18è siècle, p. 55.

Title-page printed in red and black and with an engraved vignette. 236, (4) pp. First edition of this canonical work of revolutionary utopianism, Morelly's main work, which greatly influenced later socialist and communist thought and which constitutes a forerunner of the works of Marx and Engels. The work was published anonymously and the author Étienne-Gabriel Morelly (1717 - 1778) remains a bit of a mystery about whom very little is known. At first, "The Code of Nature" was attributed to Denis Diderot, but other great authors of the day have also been proposed. "The Code of Nature" constitutes an early example of utopian socialist thought, providing a detailed plan for the establishment of a perfect state. It severely criticized the society of the time and proposed a constitution intended to lead to an egalitarian society without property, marriage, church or police. Based upon the principle that man is by nature good and the view that all social and moral ills were consequences of private property, it argues for an egalitarian society in which almost all private property - and thereby all of its pernicious consequences - is eliminated. Due to these radical views, Morelly is considered a significant forerunner of later socialist and communist thinkers, including Marx, Engels, Fourier, Proudhon, Babeuf, etc."The Code of Nature" had in immense impact on contemporary and later thought because it not only constitutes a theoretical utopia, but rather a sound analytical treatise with utopian elements. It reflects a realistic approach to society and includes a legislative program to return the State to a government in accordance with the natural solidarity and affection of humanity in which Morelly believed so strongly. "The Code of Nature" not only influenced later socialist and communist thinkers, it was also avidly discussed by contemporary Enlightenment thinkers such as Lessing, Wieland, Baumgarten, etc., and the work appeared in numerous editions throughout the 18th century.
