In 1771 Newton published an English version of Vitruvius’s De architectura so that - as he explained in the preface - England might not be the only “polished nation” that did not possess Vitruvius in its own tongue. In this copy the plates of Volume I are numbered and there is no alteration slip pasted onto the imprints. Many of the plates have been re-engraved and some of the figures enlarged. This two-volume edition was published by James Newton who states in his notice “To the Public” that all of Volume I and part of Volume II were printed before his brother’s death in 1790.

Lyon & Turnbull are offering a number of books from the library of the distinguished Arabic scholar, and one of the leading non-Muslim interpreters of Islam in the West, the late Professor William Montgomery Watt (1909-2006).

Watt was appointed a lectureship in Arabic at Edinburgh University in 1947, and remained there until he retired as Professor in 1979.

The work was supposedly written in Egyptian by Horapollo and later translated to Greek. Its style, which seems to resemble more that of Elien and his fantastical stories, than of anything relating to ancient Egypt, led to it being discredited of having any true historical value. However Champollion, after his studies on the Rosetta stone, re- examined this work and felt that it had more to do with the symbolic images found on Egyptian monuments than hieroglyphs themselves thus concluding that the only thing intrinsically wrong with the book was its title.

dans leur bibliotheque; comme accepter le livre d’un auteur n’est pas adopter ses principes, il a cru pouvoir sans témérité leur demander cette faveur. A Mommorenci 29 Mai 1762”, with a short note at foot in a later hand With a near contemporary transcript of a letter dated 16 Jan. 1763 from Rouseau to Baudoin-Cyprien-Antoine Dumoulin, published in Correspondence Complet de Jean Jacques Rousseau , Tom. 15, p.41, the original in Avignon, Bibliotheque Calvet, MS2702, folio 52-53. A rare presentation copy of the first octavo edition printed in Paris, published in late May 1762, concurrently with the 12mo edition. According to Jo-Ann McEachern the greater part of the duodecimo was imposed and printed before the octavo printing. However the preface and titles were printed initially in the octavo format, and it was the octavo that Rousseau received first and was the first to be distributed on 23 May 1762. Rousseau’s educational treatise expounded his personal deist views, earning him the wrath of both clergymen and philosophers. The Parlement of Paris condemned both book and author, forcing Rousseau to flee France. However, despite the religious controversy it provoked, Emile fostered the Romantic movement’s heightened appreciation of nature and strengthened the concept of the “noblesse sauvage.” J.A. McEachern Bibliography of the writings of Jean- Jacques Rousseau , vol. 2:1a; cf.
