Lower right corner (blank) of first few pages with some water-damp damage (not affecting the text)Seems to be a translation [complement?] into French from a part of Rösel van Rosenhof’s famous work ‘’Der monatlich-herausgegebenen Insecten-Belustigungen’’. This work was published in German, and Dutch. Although the physician J.F. Isenflamm (1726- is said to has published a translation (without plates?) in 1779, it seems very rare and I could not find a physical trace of that book.Manuscrit anonyme, page de titre décorée, 399 p., 4to, demi-toile noire postérieure (vers 1900) à coins. Belle écriture régulière à la plume sur papier réglé, Très bon état général, quelques traces d'humidité en marge des premiers feuillets (avec un peu de manque de papier au coin inferieur) et sur une page. Semble constituer un complément d'informations à [ou une traduction d’une partie de] l'ouvrage de Roesel von Rosenhof "Der monatlich-herausgegebenen Insecten-Belustigungen", sur les premiers états de papillons nocturnes et diurnes. Ce livre était publié en Allemand et Hollandais. Bien que le Docteur J.F. Isemflamm apparement a publié une traduction en 1779, aucune trace physique de ce livre a était trouvé par moi.

Exceedingly rare first edition of this highly interesting document being the Code of the Committees of Surveillance containing 106 regulations and guidelines for the functioning of these committees during the French Revolution. The Committees of Surveillance were established during the Reign of Terror (September 5, 1793 - July 27, 1794), as part of the revolutionary government's efforts to identify and suppress counter-revolutionary activities. These committees were tasked with monitoring individuals' behavior, enforcing revolutionary laws and ensuring loyalty to the revolutionary government. The document outlines the powers, duties, and procedures of these committees, as well as the penalties for those found to be opposing the revolution, providing a unique and fascinating insight into the legal and administrative framework of revolutionary France – arguable one of the most profound and radical moments in modern European history. The Committee of Surveillance in France during 1793 was established as a part of the radical phase of the French Revolution. Its function was to oversee and monitor the activities of suspected counter-revolutionaries and enemies of the Revolution, as well as to enforce laws related to internal security and revolutionary principles. The committee was tasked with identifying individuals or groups deemed to be a threat to the revolutionary government, often leading to arrests, interrogations, and, in some cases, executions by the Revolutionary Tribunal. It played a significant role in the Reign of Terror, a period marked by extreme political violence and repression in France. The present work is of the utmost scarcity. We have not been able to trace a single copy at auction, and OCLC only lists one copy (in Paris). Nadaillac, Catalogue d’une Collection Importante Sur la Revolution Francaise 724
