By The Late Adam Smith, LL.D. . to which is prefixed an account of the life and writings of the author, by Dugald Stewart. First Edition. 4to (300 x 240mm). xcv, 244 pp. Contemporary half russia with marbled paper covered boards, spine lettered and ruled in gilt, edges untrimmed (extremities rubbed and bumped, upper joint cracking, heacaps missing). London: for T. Cadell Jun. and W. Davies; and W. Creech, Edinburgh, Adam Smith chose his friends James Black and William Hutton as his literary executors, after first forcing them to burn sixteen volumes of his manuscripts before his death. These essays discuss ?The Principles which lead and direct Philosophical Enquiries? illustrated by the history of astronomy, ancient physics and ancient logic and metaphysics; the nature of imitation in the imitative arts; the affinity between music, dancing and poetry, and between certain English and Italian verses; the five ?external senses? (Touching, Tasting, Smelling, Hearing, Seeing). In the ?Advertisement?, the editors [Black and Hutton] explain that ?the greater number of them [the seven essays] appeared to be parts of a plan he once had formed, for giving a connected history of the liberal sciences and elegant arts. It is long since he found it necessary to abandon that plan as far too extensive; and these parts of it lay beside him neglected until his death? Dugald Stewart's account of the life and writings of Adam Smith was originally delivered as lectures at the Royal Society of Edinburgh on 28 January and 18 March 1793 and published in their Transactions in 1794. 1000 copies were printed for sale at 15 shillings in boards. It was followed by an 8vo Dublin reprint in the same year. The only other eighteenth-century printings in English of these seven essays by Smith were at Basel (1799) and Strasburg (1799); the latter, known in only two copies, is probably a reissue of the former.

Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Einband etwas berieben und verfärbt, sonst guter Zustand / Binding somewhat rubbed and discoloured, otherwise good condition. - General Introduction: Most of the essays contained in this book were not prepared for the press by Smith. They are fragments in fact perhaps, as Black and Hutton suggested in the Advertisement to EPS, parts of a plan he had once formed, for giving a connected history of the liberal sciences and elegant arts . The essays are also diverse both in terms of subjectmatter and in the degree of finish they had acquired at the time of Smith s death. Yet, at the same time, there are some common elements.

Erstausgabe
First edition, published five years after Smith's death. It is prefaced by Dugald Stewart's "Account of the Life and Writings of Adam Smith", one of the earliest biographical notices of Smith, and "until [Stewart's] Biographical Memoir of 1811. formed the basis upon which everyone drew for the biographies of Smith that began to appear in the early 19th century" (Tribe). Smith's literary executors, the medical scientist Joseph Black and geologist James Hutton, state in the advertisement that Smith's essays were intended as parts of "a connected history of the liberal sciences and elegant arts", but that Smith "long since. found it necessary to abandon that plan as far too extensive". The essays range over philosophy, aesthetics and the history of science. Most were likely written before the appearance of the Theory of Moral Sentiments in 1759, but were withheld from publication as part of Smith's "extensive plan". Stewart's "Account" was originally presented to the Royal Society of Edinburgh in two sessions during 1793. Kress lists the Dublin printing first and calls the London "another issue", while Tribe calls the Dublin edition a piracy. Neither is correct. Dublin booksellers at the time had a well-established exemption from the copyright laws and could legally reprint any new publication first published in London, without having to pay for copy. The London edition precedes the legal Dublin reprint. Einaudi 5326; Goldsmiths' 16218; Jessop, p. 172; Kress B.3038; Rothschild 1902; Tribe 55; Vanderblue, p. 43. Quarto (276 x 213 mm). Contemporary marbled calf, spine ruled and decorated gilt in compartments, black morocco label. Ownership inscription of one J. D. Erskine to head of title, monogrammed book label to front pastedown. Joints and extremities neatly restored, small worm track to lower corner of front pastedown and facing free endpaper, a crisp, clean copy.

4to, pp. xcv, [1], 244; one or two light spots, but a clean, crisp, very attractive copy in modern green quarter morocco and marbled boards; nineteenth century armorial bookplate of Baron Henley of Chardstock to the front paste-down, ownership inscription of Sir Frederick Morton Eden, author of The State of the Poor. First edition, published five years after Smith's death. The second section of the work contains a discussion of the dissertation on the origin of languages, which was first annexed to the third edition of the Theory of Moral Sentiments. An important text in the history of linguistics and one of the earliest contributions to linguistic typology, it includes a hypothesis on the first formations of language, which might perhaps have occurred when 'two savages' began to assign sounds to various visual and sense stimuli with which they had contact.Also included is an essay on the affinity between English and Italian verses, looking at issues of rhyme, double rhyme, rhythm, and accent, accompanied by ample examples. The editors say that the essays were intended as parts of 'a connected history of the liberal sciences and elegant arts', but that Smith had 'long since. found it necessary to abandon that plan as far too extensive'. The essays range over philosophy, aesthetics and the history of science. Most were probably written before the appearance of the Theory of Moral Sentiments in 1759, but were withheld from publication as part of Smith's 'extensive plan'.Einaudi 5326; Goldsmiths' 16218; Jessop, p. 172; Kress B.3038; Rothschild 1902; Tribe 55; Vanderblue, p. 43.
