Title: Physiologie du gout, ou meditation de gastronomie transcendante; ouvrage theorique, historique et a l'ordre du jour, dedie aux gastronomie parisiens
Author: Brillat-Savarin, Jean Anthelme
Seller: Rabelais - Fine Books on Food & Drink (United States)
Description: Paris: Sautelet et Cie, 1826. Two volumes, octavo, xiv, 390 & 449 pages. FIRST EDITION of the most famous treatise on gastronomy. The Physiology of Taste was published in an edition of 500 copies, appearing only two months after the author's death. A comprehensive philosophy of the palate, the table, and far beyond, the book is presented in a series of thirty meditations on subjects including the senses, taste, appetite, gastronomy, restaurateurs, cooking, fasting, obesity, death, sleep, rest and dreams. Brillat-Savarin was an attorney and magistrate who fled France during the Terror, living in Switzerland and New York until his return after the fall of Robespierre in 1796. The present work secured his eternal fame among gastronomes. M.F.K. Fisher – whose translation of Brillat-Savarin's work still stands as the best – commends this book for its straightforward and unornamented prose in an era of florid writing, but the intellectual range and invention of the work is anything but simple. At the very outset: "1. The Universe is nothing without the things that live in it, and everything that lives eats. 2. Animals feed themselves; men eat; but only wise men know the art of eating. 3. The destiny of nations depends on how they nourish themselves." It may be noted that Brillat-Savarin regularly refers to his gastronomic experience in America. Contemporary quarter calf and marbled boards Light wear at extremities, otherwise in very good condition. [Cagle 98; Crahan 491; Oberle 144; Vicaire 116; Wheaton & Kelly 860].

The World Two Cliometricians Made, The Journal of Negro History, Vol. LX, No. 1, 53-228 pp, Jan. 1975; near fine. ROBERT WILLIAM FOGEL (1926-2013) was an American economic historian and scientist. In 1993, Robert Fogel received, jointly with fellow economic historian Douglass C. North, the Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences "for having renewed research in economic history by applying economic theory and quantitative methods in order to explain economic and institutional change". He is best known as an advocate of new economic history (cliometrics) – the use of quantitative methods in history. He received a PhD from Johns Hopkins University in 1963. He began his research career as an assistant professor at the University of Rochester in 1960. In 1964 he moved to the University of Chicago as an associate professor. During this time he completed some of his most important works, including Time on the Cross (in collaboration with Stanley Engerman). In 1975 he left for Harvard University, and from 1978 on he worked as a research associate under the National Bureau of Economic Research in Cambridge, Massachusetts. In 1981 he returned to the University of Chicago, where he directed the newly created Center for Population Economics at the Booth School of Business. Fogel's most famous and controversial work is Time on the Cross (1974), a two-volume quantitative study of American slavery, co-written with Stanley Engerman. In the book, Fogel and Engerman argued that the system of slavery was profitable for slave owners because they organized plantation production "rationally" to maximize their profits. Due to economies of scale, (the so-called "gang system" of labor on cotton plantations), they argued, Southern slave farms were more productive, per unit of labor, than northern farms. The implications of this, Engerman and Fogel contended, is that slavery in the American South was not quickly going away on its own (as it had in some historical instances such as ancient Rome) because, despite its exploitative nature, slavery was immensely profitable and productive for slave owners. This contradicted the argument of earlier Southern historians. The central argument of the book argued that Southern slave plantations were profitable for the slave owners and would not have disappeared in the absence of the Civil War. However, the book's focus on economics and perceived minimization of the savagery and inhumanity of slavery prompted a firestorm of controversy. Some criticisms considered Fogel an apologist for slavery, as highlighted in Gutman's review offered here. In fact, Fogel objected to slavery on moral grounds; he thought that on purely economic grounds, slavery was not unprofitable or inefficient as previous historians had argued. In 1989 Fogel published Without Consent or Contract: The Rise and Fall of American Slavery as a response to criticism stemming from what some perceived as the cold and calculating conclusions found in his earlier work, Time on the Cross. In it he very clearly spells out a moral indictment of slavery when he references things such as the high infant mortality rate from overworked pregnant women, and the cruel slave hierarchies established by their masters. He does not write so much on what he had already established in his previous work, and instead focuses on how such an economically efficient system was threatened and ultimately abolished. Using the same measurement techniques he used in his previous work, he analyzed a mountain of evidence pertaining to the lives of slaves, but he focuses much more on the social aspects versus economics this time. STANLEY L. ENGERMAN (b. 1936) is an economist and economic historian at the University of Rochester. He received his Ph.D. in economics in 1962 from Johns Hopkins University. Engerman is known for his quantitative historical work along with Nobel Prize–winning economist Robert Fogel. Engerman served as president of the Social Science History Association as well as president of the Economic History Association. He is professor of Economics and Professor of History at the University of Rochester. PROVENANCE OF TIME ON THE CROSS: SIMON KUZNETS (1901-1985), was an American economist and statistician who received the 1971 Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences "for his empirically founded interpretation of economic growth which has led to new and deepened insight into the economic and social structure and process of development." Kuznets made a decisive contribution to the transformation of economics into an empirical science and to the formation of quantitative economic history. Along with Milton Friedman (Nobel, 1976), Robert Fogel and Stanley Engerman were doctoral students of Kuznets at Johns Hopkins University in the 1950s. PROVENANCE OF REVIEWS: JOHN PAUL FRANK (1917-2002) was an American lawyer and scholar involved in landmark civil rights, school desegregation, and criminal procedure cases before the United States Supreme Court. He clerked for Justice Hugo Black of the U.S. Supreme Court from 1942 to 1943. Frank spent the next two years as the assistant to the Secretary of the Interior and then to the U.S. Attorney General. He studied at Yale Law School and obtained a S.J.D. in 1947. In 1946, he joined the faculty of the Indiana University, Bloomington School of Law. He returned to Yale Law School to teach from 1949 to 1954, when he joined the law firm of Lewis & Roca in Phoenix, Arizona.

Title: THE ENGLISH ART OF COOKERY, ACCORDING TO THE PRESENT PRACTICE; BEING A COMPLETE GUIDE TO ALL HOUSEKEEPERS, ON A PLAN ENTIRELY NEW
Author: (COOKERY). BRIGGS, RICHARD
Seller: Phillip J. Pirages Fine Books and Medieval Manuscripts (United States)
Description: London: G. G. J. and J. Robinson, 1788. FIRST EDITION. 218 x 135 mm. (8 1/2 x 5 1/4"). iv, xx, 656 pp. Straightforward modern calf in the style of the period, raised bands, red morocco label lettered in gilt. With 12 copper plates depicting the bill of fare for each month of the year. Oxford, pp. 115-16; Maclean, p. 15; Bitting, p. 60. Spine and top inch of boards a bit sunned; otherwise, the entirely unworn binding very fine. Intermittent minor smudges, one margin with a closed tear, other trivial defects, but a remarkably clean, bright, and fresh copy internally, especially for a work used in the kitchen. This is an extremely well-preserved copy of Richard Briggs' very thorough cookbook, a rich source for late 18th century recipes. We know from the note on the title page that Briggs was a professional cook working "many years" at the "Globe Tavern, Fleet-Street, The White Hart Tavern, Holborn, and now at the Temple Coffee-House." He tells us in the preface that he was "one whose Habits of Life have been active, and not studious," and food historian Fiona Lucraft suggests in DNB that this may explain the rather creative spellings that appear throughout the work. Made up of over 1,200 recipes divided into 38 chapters, "The English Art of Cookery" covers the preparation of all types of foods, from meats and fishes to pickles, baked goods, eggs, desserts, beers, and more. Contrary to what its title suggests, this work includes recipes from elsewhere in Europe (particularly France) and the Empire, including Indian and West Indian-inspired dishes. Early editions of this very popular cookbook appear at auction with some regularity, but often in condition that reflects the work's intended unprotected use. Our copy is quite unexpectedly different..

Seller: Lorne Bair Rare Books (United States)
Description: San Francisco: Cubery & Co, n.d., ca. 1894. First Edition. Original broadside flyer (30x45cm.) printed in black on off-white stock; faint vertical fold, stock rather brittle and uniformly toned due to poor paper quality, several shallow losses along extremities, none approaching text. Near Very Good overall. Flyer for the People's Party, a populist agrarian political party founded in 1891 which merged with the Democratic Party in 1896. Mrs. Carrie F. Young appears to have begun her political career in the early 1880s as a member and lecturer of the Oakland Health and Temperance Club and superintendent of the Scientific Temperance Instruction in the Public Schools of Alameda County. First mention of Young lecturing for the People's Party appears to date around 1894, when she delivered an address on white slavery at a Populist ratification meeting in June, 1894 (see the San Francisco Call, June 24, 1894). Uncommon broadside: OCLC locates one copy as of September, 2016, at Berkeley, giving the date as 1892.

"The specific and organic character in working with individual motifs masks the complexity of Sudek's work by an appearance of simplicity and naturalness (similarly, the artist hid his outstanding personality from the public behind the figure of an ordinary if somewhat eccentric man). Thanks to it s apparent simplicity the work mocks a common critical interpretation which interprets an artistic work in categories of a certain programme or movement, which means on the basis of simplified and linear conception of historical progression."
