Esquisse d'une Théorie des Émotions. - [PRESENTATION-COPY]
Hermann & Cie, 1939. Royal 8vo. Bound uncut with the original printed wrappers (""Actualités scientifiques et industrielles"", no. 838. Essais philosophiques II, Publiés par Cavaillès), also the backstrip (mounted with a little loss). in an exquisite, beautiful black morocco binding with gilt horizontal and vertical lettering to spine. Beautiful silvered paper over boards. Housed in an exquisite silvered marbled paper slip-case with black morocco edges. Binding signed to bottom of inside of front board: ""C. et J-P. Miguet"". Near mint copy. 52 pp.
First printing, presentation-copy, of Sartre's highly important early philosophical work, which is recognized as the best introduction to his ""L'Étre et le Néant"" (1943). The work was only printed as it is here, as no. 838 of Cavaillè's ""Actualités scientifiques et industrielles"", and only appeared in a new (not revised) edition in 1960. The large presentation-inscription reads as thus : "" A Olivier Briot/ en la remerciant de "" Les lignes "" qui j'ai/ beaucoup aimé/ JP Sartre "".""L'Esquisse d'une théorie des émotions "" ("" Sketch for a Theory of the Emotions""), although now considered one of Sartre's most important works, was originally written as the first part and introduction to a greater work on psychological phenomenology that was supposed to be entitled ""La Psyché"". The great psychological project was abandoned due to Sartre's eagerness to finish ""Le Mur"". ""L'Esquisse"" thus remains the only part of the work ever published, and perhaps exactly because of its introductory character, it has come to have the effect on modern philosophical thought that it has. Due to being at the same time accessible and rigourous, the work is considered the best introduction to Sartre's fundamental philosophical ideas, an almost indispensible presentation of and introduction to ""L'Étre et le Néant"", which appeared four years later. ""L'Esquisse d'une théorie des émotions "" is a phenomenological essay on emotion, in which Sartre ettempts to present a phenomenological psychology, treating emotion as a "" phenomenon "" and placing it within the realm of signification. The primary presentation of his own phenomenological analysis is essantial to all his later philosophy.""Although written fairly early in his career, in 1939, Sketch for a Theory of the Emotions is considered to be one of Jean-Paul Sartre's most important pieces of writing. It not only anticipates but argues many of the ideas to be found in his famous Being and Nothingness. By subjecting the emotion theories of his day to critical analysis, Sartre opened up the world of psychology to new and creative ways of interpreting feelings. Emotions are intentional and strategic ways of coping with difficult situations. We choose to utilize them, we control them, and not the other way around, as has been posited elsewhere. Emotions are not fixed"" they have no essence and indeed are subject to rapid fluctuations and about-turns. For its witty approach alone, Sartre's Sketch for a Theory of the Emotions can be enjoyed at length. It is a dazzling journey to one of the more intriguing theories of our time.""

The uncommon first edition of the “New Collection” of Asbjørnsen’s “Norwegian Folk-Tales”, being the continuation that contains the 45 Folk Tales numbered 61-105, signed and dated presentation-copy from the author for, inscribed the same year that the book appeared “Hr. Dr. Brenner/ med Höiagtelse og Ærbødighed/ fra / P. Chr. Asbjørnsen/ Christiania Novbr. 1871”. The first collection of the seminal Folk-Tales had appeared ca. 30 years previously and was finished with the second expanded edition from 1852, which increased the number of fairy tales to 60. Here, we have the seminal continuation that completes the collection with the 45 additional tales (nrs. 61-105). As Asbjørnsen states in the preface, “There has been big appeal for the continuation of the material gathered back then, but for several years, other pursuits and chores have required so much time that there was none left to contemplate a more complete collection. My former co-publisher, Jørgen Moe, finally gave up and has given to me free disposition of his collections, which contained many valuable contributions… Only now I could begin thinking about fulfilling the work, t now presented in the present collection of Fairy Tales, on my own. Most of these Fairy Tales have… been printed in almanachs etc., but here they appear in a mostly completely rewritten and purified form. – A few of them have not previously been printed.” (Preface pp. III-IV – own translation from Norwegian). It was a great event in Norwegian intellectual life when Peter Chiristen Asbjørnsen (1812-1885) together with Jørgen Moe (1813-1882) began collecting and later publishing the Norwegian fairy tales in the beginning of the 1840’ies. The genre of fairy tales was centuries old and had survived through oral tradition. But the fairy tales had never been of any serious interest in intellectual circles or been of any particular influence in literature, until the dawn of national romanticism. Asbjørnsen’s pioneering efforts to collect, register, and publish the Norwegian legends and fairy tales that had otherwise only survived in oral form, constituted a revolution in Norwegian literature and language. These seminal publications are a fundamental part of Norwegian heritage and a great national treasure. The publications of the fairy tales constituted an outright revolution in not only Norwegian, but also international literature, just as those of the Brothers Grimm in Germany had done. International recognition was overwhelming, and suddenly, Norwegian fair tales were considered among the best in the world. “Tell them like the people tell them” was the principle for the retelling of the stories. Moe was excellent at that, whereas Asbjørnsen had a superb epic talent. Asbjørnsen’s publications count as great literature in themselves and were extremely influential. The publication of the fairy tales and stories were extremely influential, not only upon literature in itself, but also more specifically upon the Norwegian language, also that of contemporary literature, directly influencing eg. Ibsen and Bjørnson. Asbjørnsen and Moe are responsible for the Norwegiazasion of the written language (which was hitherto Danish), utilizing specifically Norwegian expressions and words never before used in writing, to replace the Danish. These seminal fairy tales fundamentally effected the development of written Norwegian and founded the Norwegian softening of the Danish language. Presentation-inscriptions from Asbjørnsen are of the utmost scarcity and almost never appear on the market. Østberg: 51

Interesting presentation-copy of the scarce first edition of Hooker's first botanical work, which is not only considered his most beautiful, but which is also the work that established hepaticology (the science of liverworts) as an independent entity and cemented Hooker's reputation. Presented on half-title: ""To Francis Boott, Esq./ of Boston, N. America,/ as a testimony of the affectionate/ regard & esteem of/ The Author/ Halesworth Aug. 5.th 1818."" Underneath the dedication in Francis Boott's hand: ""Mr. Hooker in a letter to me from Halesworth of Aug 5. - says of this copy - ""It will serve as a specimen of Country binding, printing and engraving - every thing in short belonging to it being executed in this neighbourhood.""/ signed ""F.B."". When Hooker returned from his botanical excursions, first to Iceland, then to France, Switzerland and Northern Italy, he devoted himself to the formation of his ""Herbarium"", which became of worldwide renown among botanists. In 1841 he was appointed director of the Royal Botanical Garden at Kew, where he founded the first museum of economic botany.""Hooker spent twelve years at Halesworth, during which he produced his British Jungermanniae, with his own illustrations, widely considered to be his most beautiful work. This book established hepaticology as an independent entity and made Hooker's reputation."" (Mea Allan in DSB).Francis Boott (1792-1863), to whom this copy was given, was a friend of Hooker. He had studied botany in America and medicine in London, where he practiced medicine and also gave lectures in botany, - he was also secretary to the Linnean Society.
