Erstausgabe
First edition of Townsend's examination of the society, politics, and political economy of Spain. The Journey stands as Townsend's best-known work, an encyclopaedic study of late 18th-century Spain, and a sophisticated example of pre-Malthusian political economy. The route of Joseph Townsend (1739-1816), churchman, writer, and geologist, took him via Paris to Barcelona, Madrid, Oviedo, Seville, Granada, and Valencia. The three volumes of the Journey provide detailed treatments of the history, politics, and cultures which he encountered. Although a clergyman by profession, Townsend was also an accomplished political economist. His 1786 tract against the Poor Laws articulated sophisticated concepts of what would come to be called natural selection and is often cited, as by J. R. McCulloch, as a key influence on Malthus: "Townsend's ideas were not so much a foreshadowing of Malthus's theory as the theory itself" (quoted in ODNB). In the Journey, Townsend applied his understanding of political economy to the case study of late 18th-century Spain. The result was a perceptive analysis of Spain's comparative decline and stagnation as a civilized society. Townsend was, in this work, the first writer to refer to "principles" of population (Lepenies, p. 433). Travelling from Granada to Carthagena, Townsend writes that "Looking down upon so rich, yet such a contracted spot, we instantly and evidently see that the human race, however at first, and whilst their numbers are limited, they may rejoice in affluence, will go on constantly increasing, till they balance their quantity of food" (vol. 2, p. 107). In Lepenies's analysis, this is precisely the same principle that Malthus would subsequently propose in the Essay on the Principle of Population (1798). In the words of McCulloch Journey is "One of the best works of the kind that has ever appeared" (McCulloch, p. 215). ESTC T73276. Philipp H. Lepenies, "Of goats and dogs: Joseph Townsend and the idealisation of marketsa decisive episode in the history of economics", Cambridge Journal of Economics, vol. 38, no. 2, Mar. 2014; J. R.

Manuskript / Papierantiquität
Three postcards, good condition with postal marks. Text: "I must thank you with all my heart of the splendid review in The New Statesman including the delightful little allusion to my Selected Passages [ Selected passages from the works of Bernard Shaw ; Chosen by Charlotte F. Shaw. . Published: London : Constable, 1912]. It was more than satisfactory that you should specially have picked out the dissection of [Ibsen's] 'When we dead awaken - as that is my [underlined] particular hobb7y! It is a good play - but you have to get it in focus. It was 8 years before I could get GBS to do that! | I hope we shall see you when we get back. Did you see 'Androcles' last night? If you did it would be more than kind of you to tell me (on a postcard!) what you think of it. | I am doing a 'cure' for asthma here." Views of Mont-Dore on the recto of the postcard.
