Description
This set of four copperplate engraved title pages is part of the renowned work "Histoire Philosophique et Politique des Etablissemens," authored by R. Bonne and Raynal during the years 1775-1780. The publication, enriched with contributions from prominent Enlightenment thinker Diderot, delves into a wide array of subjects, including religion, commerce, slavery, and contemporary political and social issues. Notably, the work faced censorship and banning in France due to its provocative content, prompting its publication in Geneva, Switzerland. Each title page is a testament to the intellectual depth and significance of the Enlightenment era, encapsulating the spirit of critical inquiry and advocacy for societal change. Offered in overall very good condition, with authenticity guaranteed, these title pages serve as valuable artifacts representing the Enlightenment's enduring influence on intellectual discourse and social progress.
