[Bougeant, Guillaume Hyacinthe].
Amusement philosophique sur le langage des bêtes.
A Paris, Chez Gissey, [et al.], 1739. 157,[5] pp. Contemp. mottled calf, spine gilt & raised in compartments. 8vo. Important work on the soul and the language of beasts, which is indeed a satire ideas of Descartes on animals as machines without souls. The Jesuit Bougeant (1690-1743) argues instead that animals have souls of demons. - Fine copy in fine original 18th century binding.
