È attraverso questo dubbio che Cartesio pone le basi della nuova scienza.

Bel exemplaire. Véritable 3e édition dont l'achevé d'imprimé date du 28 avril 1668. Elle fut partagée entre Michel Bobin, Théodore Girard et Nicolas Le Gras. Guibert liste autre édition en 1668 parue chez Charles Angot (augmentée du traité de la méchanique et de l'abrégé de musique) avec un achevé d?imprimer au 8 mai 1668 (p. 19). Le Discours de la méthode développe un manifeste de la raison s?étayant sur un présupposé fondamental, "l?exercice du doute" en toutes choses. C?est par ce doute que Descartes érige les fondations de la science nouvelle. "Certainement un des livres les plus importants dans l'histoire de la pensée humaine" (R. Taton, in Daumas Hist. de la science) En français dans le texte n°90 ". texte si troublant. d'émergence des lois de la raison. visée philosophique précise qui est de pousser la démonstration analytique à son extrême.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Volume I and II, complete, leather bound with gold titles and 18 folded tables which reminds those of the Enciclopedy. The first edition of this capital work was published by Jan Maire, Leiden (1637) Following the Discours, now celebrated as one of the canonical texts of Western philosophy, plus two Essays of epoch-making importance. (Cajori, History of Mathematics, p. 174), designated by John Stuart Mill as the greatest single step ever made in the progress of the exact sciences. It rendered possible the later achievements of seventeenth-century mathematical physics (Hall, Nature and nature's laws (1970), p. 91). The first of the Essais, La Dioptrique, contains Descartes discovery of Snell's law of refraction of light (earlier than Snell); the second, Les Météores, contains Descartes explanation of the rainbow, based on the optical theories developed in the first Essai. It is no exaggeration to say that Descartes was the first of modern philosophers and one of the first modern scientists; in both branches of learning his influence has been vast. His application of modern algebraic arithmetic to ancient geometry created the analytical geometry which is the basis of the post-Euclidean development of that science. His statement of the elementary laws of matter and movement in the physical universe, the theory of vortices, and many other speculations threw light on every branch of science from optics to biology. Not least may be remarked his discussion of Harvey's discovery of the circulation of blood, the first mention of it by a prominent foreign scholar. All this found its starting point in the Discourse on the Method for Proper Reasoning and Investigating Truth in the Sciences? Descartes?s purpose is to find the simple indestructible proposition which gives to the universe and thought their order and system. Three points are made: the truth of thought, when thought is true to itself (thus cogito, ergo, sum), the inevitable elevation of its partial state in our finite consciousness to its full state in the infinite existence of God, and the ultimate reduction of the material universe to extension and local movement; Grolier/Horblit 24; Dibner 81; Evans 5; Sparrow 54.In October 1629 Descartes began work on The World, which included not only his Treatise on Light, first published as Le Monde in 1664, and the Treatise on Man, first published two years earlier as Renatus Descartes de Homine, but also the material on the formation of colours in the Meteors and the material on geometrical optics in the Dioptrics, both subsequently published in 1637.EX LIBRIS Jeanne and Jannine Darbot.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good+. 4to (223 x 160mm). 303pp., [xxiii, of tables]. Full contemporary calf; well rubbed; tear to top of spine. Over 100 fine woodcut diagrams throughout, several full-page. Woodcut printer's device to title; (small tear to title at upper right margin, slighty browned; slightly rubbed, corners bumped). From the collection of J. Richard D.M. Ex Bibliotheca (18th-century armorial rubber stamp to title and p. 3) possibly French, 1638-1739. Early Illustrated Edition of Descartes' Discourse on the Method, one of the most influential works in the history of modern philosophy, and important to the evolution of natural sciences. This work features Descartes' famous line "I think therefore I am," which he wrote in French (Je pense donc je suis) thereby reaching a wider audience in his country than that of scholars. The Discours was originally published in Leiden in 1637. Published also in Paris, the same year as this edition, is an edition by Bobel and De Gras. Descartes started his line of reasoning by doubting everything, so as to assess the world from a fresh perspective, clear of any preconceived notions. In the Discourse, Descartes tackles the problem of skepticism, which had previously been studied by Sextus Empiricus, Al- Ghazali and Michel de Montaigne. The Discourse, divided into six parts, was intended as an introduction to three of his works Dioptrique, Météores and Géométrie. His statements of the elementary laws of matter and movement in the physical universe, the theory of vortices, and many other speculations threw light on every branch of science from optics to biology; all this found its starting-point in the Discourse. La Géométrie contains Descartes' first introduction of the Cartesian coordinate system. Together with his Meditations on First Philosophy (Meditationes de Prima Philosophia), Principles of Philosophy (Principia philosophiae) and Rules for the Direction of the Mind (Regulae ad directionem ingenii), the Discourse forms the base of the Epistemology known as Cartesianism. The Discours "was Descartes' first published work, the much-talked about 'World' or 'Cosmos' having been suppressed or destroyed on his hearing of the condemnation of Galileo in 1632. In 1636, however, when 40 years of age, he felt that it was time to bring his views before the public and publish them abroad. Descartes endeavored to preserve the anonymity of his work with scrupulous carebut in the end he found himself compelled to avow his authorship" (Osler 928). Descartes' Discourse, thoroughly a foundational work in the history of modern philosophy, this augmented edition with many fine woodcuts, remaining fresh and bright.

First edition. 'COGITO, ERGO, SUM' (PMM 129). First edition of Descartes' first and most famous work, and an extremely attractive copy in a strictly contemporary binding with the gilt arms of Louis Treslon-Cauchon, known as Hesselin, one of the most important and distinguished French bibliophiles of the 17th century. Following the Discours, now celebrated as one of the canonical texts of Western philosophy, are three 'Essais', the last of which, La Géométrie, contains the birth of analytical or co-ordinate geometry, "of epoch-making importance" (Cajori, History of Mathematics, p. 174), designated by John Stuart Mill as "the greatest single step ever made in the progress of the exact sciences". It "rendered possible the later achievements of seventeenth-century mathematical physics" (Hall, Nature and nature's laws (1970), p. 91). The first of the Essais, La Dioptrique, contains Descartes' discovery of 'Snell's law' of refraction of light (earlier than Snell); the second, Les Météores, contains Descartes' explanation of the rainbow, based on the optical theories developed in the first Essai. "It is no exaggeration to say that Descartes was the first of modern philosophers and one of the first modern scientists; in both branches of learning his influence has been vast . The revolution he caused can be most easily found in his reassertion of the principle (lost in the middle ages) that knowledge, if it is to have any value, must be intelligence and not erudition. His application of modern algebraic arithmetic to ancient geometry created the analytical geometry which is the basis of the post-Euclidean development of that science. His statement of the elementary laws of matter and movement in the physical universe, the theory of vortices, and many other speculations threw light on every branch of science from optics to biology. Not least may be remarked his discussion of Harvey's discovery of the circulation of blood, the first mention of it by a prominent foreign scholar. All this found its starting point in the 'Discourse on the Method for Proper Reasoning and Investigating Truth in the Sciences'. Descartes's purpose is to find the simple indestructible proposition which gives to the universe and thought their order and system. Three points are made: the truth of thought, when thought is true to itself (thus cogito, ergo, sum), the inevitable elevation of its partial state in our finite consciousness to its full state in the infinite existence of God, and the ultimate reduction of the material universe to extension and local movement" (PMM). Copies of the Discours in contemporary armorial bindings are rare on the market, and those which also have contemporary provenance especially so. Provenance: Louis Treslon-Cauchon dit Hesselin (1602-1662), counsellor to Louis XIII and superintendent of 'plaisirs du Roi', one of the most important French bibliophiles of the 17th century (gilt arms on covers); 'achepté a Paris de la bibliothèque de Mr Hesselin 1668'; Ex libris Jacobi Borde Presbyt.Aurel.Cannon.Magdun.1673, signature in the same hand on the lower inside cover; on the title, Ex Libris Petri Aniani Douberion (?), probably 17th century, another inscription in the same hand, on the inside cover, has been canceled in ink; Ex libris Joannis Bapt.Amici Deméré in Collegio Rhet An.1792; Ex libris by Eugène Paillet (1829-1901 (his catalogue, I, 1902, n°60). In October 1629 Descartes began work on The World, which included not only his Treatise on Light, first published as Le Monde in 1664, and the Treatise on Man, first published two years earlier as Renatus Descartes de Homine, but also the material on the formation of colours in the Meteors and the material on geometrical optics in the Dioptrics, both subsequently published in 1637 along with the Discourse and the Geometry. Descartes sets out the details of the treatise he was working on from mid-1629 to 1633 in part 5 of the Discourse: "I tried to explain the principles in a Treatise which certain considerations prevented me from publishing, and I know of no better way of making them known than to set out here briefly what it contained. I had as my aim to include in it everything that I thought I knew before I wrote it about the nature of material things. But just as painters, not being able to represent all the different sides of a body equally well on a flat canvas, choose one of the main ones and set it facing the light, and shade the others so as to make them stand out only when viewed from the perspective of the chosen side; so too, fearing that I could not put everything I had in mind in my discourse, I undertook to expound fully only what I knew about light. Then, as the opportunity arose, I added something about the Sun and the fixed stars, because almost all of it comes from them; the heavens, because they transmit it; the planets, comets, and the earth, because they reflect light; and especially bodies on the earth, because they are coloured, or transparent, or luminous; and finally about man, because he observes these bodies" (quoted in Gaukroger (ed.), Rene Descartes: The World and Other Writings, p. xi). But The World was never published in Descartes' lifetime. "During the years immediately following the condemnation of Galileo, Descartes held fast to his initial view that the cardinals had made a mistake, though one that was potentially dangerous for himself. His fundamental idea was that the decision involved a misunderstanding of the role of the Bible as a source of scientific knowledge. He also argued that he was not bound to accept the Roman decision as a matter of faith, and he hoped that it would be reversed in due course so that he could publish his World without fear of censure. He had to concede, however, that as long as there was no change of mind about Galileo by the church, the World would remain 'out of season' In these circumstances, the next-best option was to consider ways in which parts of his work that were not theologically.

De la Hollande où l'avait conduit son aspiration à la solitude et à l'isolement, le philosophe continue cependant à correspondre avec ses proches. C'est aux instances de ceux-ci qu'il cède en publiant en 1637 une anthologie de ses recherches à laquelle il laissa le sens d'une démarche toute singulière et toute personnelle.Après avoir pensé confier son ouvrage aux Elzevier puis à un imprimeur parisien, Descartes finit par traiter avec le libraire imprimeur Jean Maire établi à Leyde, moyennant la rémunération de 200 exemplaires d'auteur.?uvre fondamentale rédigée en français afin d'être plus intelligible et accessible Le Discours de la Méthode marque une étape considérable dans la progression de la pensée occidentale au XVIIe siècle.« Le Discours de la Méthode » est suivi de 3 mémoires scientifiques, « La Dioptrique », « La Géométrie » et « Les Météores », abondamment illustrés de figures sur bois.Descartes y mentionne par ailleurs les découvertes de Harvey sur la circulation sanguine (Exercitadio anatomica de motu cordis et sanguinis, 1628).

From Holland where his aspiration for loneliness and isolation had driven him, the philosopher still corresponds with his nearest and dearest. It is in the face of their entreaties that he gave in and published in 1637 an anthology of his researches to which he gave the meaning of a peculiar and personal process. After having thought of entrusting the Elsevier and then a Parisian printer with his work, Descartes ended dealing with the bookseller and printer Ian Maire established in Leyden, in return 200 author's copies.Founding work written in French in order to be more intelligible and accessible the Discourse on the Method marks a considerable step in the advancement of western thought in the 17th century.The Discourse on the Method is followed by 3 scientific reports "La Dioptrique", "Geometry" and the Meteors, abundantly illustrated with woodcuts.Besides Descartes mentions Harvey's discoveries on blood circulation (Exercitadio anatomica de motu cordis et sanguinis, 1628). It is the first discussion on this matter by a French philosopher.The Discourse on the Method is divided in six parts. Descartes presents an outline at the beginning of the work "In the first, will be found various considerations touching Sciences. In the second, the main rules of the method which the author has be.
