Description
SAINT-LAMBERT: *Principles of Morals among All Nations, or Universal Catechism*. Followed by *Philosophical Works*. Paris, Agasse, 1798–1801). 5 volumes in-8, light-coloured veal leather with natural grain, smooth decorated spine, gilt fillets on the covers, marbled edges (binding circa 1830, corners worn, rare rubbing, scattered foxing). First edition. A major work by the philosopher and moralist Saint-Lambert (1716–1803), who was very close to the Encyclopédistes, this catechism was intended to provide a comprehensive code of universal morality modelled on Helvétius’s *The Spirit*. It is quite rare to find this work and its sequel (the philosophical works) in uniform, near-contemporary binding.
