D'ALEMBERT (Jean le Rond):

Elémens de Musique Théorique et Pratique, suivant les Principes de M. Rameau, éclairis, développées et simplifiés. Nouvelle Édition, Revue, corrigée & considérablement augmentée.

A Lyon, Chez Jean-Marie Bruyset..., 1762 8vo, pp. [iv], xxxvi, 236 [237 - 239 Approbation and Privilege, 240 blank], 10 folding engraved plates at end of text, 19th century quarter calf, marbled boards, gilt spine. A very good copy. This is in fact the third edition, the first having been published in 1752, followed by a "nouvell edition" in 1766. Part of the importance of d'Alembert's work lies in its secularization of music theory. New Grove terms this "an outstanding work of elucidation."

D'ALEMBERT (Jean Le Rond). RAMEAU (Jean Phillipe):

Elemens de Musique Theorique et Pratique. Suviant Les Principes de M. Rameau. Èclaris, Développés et Simplifiés, Par M. D'Alembernt, de l'Academie Francoise.... Nouvelle Edition. Revue, corrigée & considérablement augmentée.

A Lyon, Chez Jean-Marie Bruyset..., 1766. 8vo, 207 x 130 mms., pp. [iv], xxxvi, 236 [237 - 240 Approbation and Privilege], including half-title, ten folding engraved plates at end, title-page in red and black, fore-edges uncut, recent rebound in half calf, gilt spine, marbled boards. A very good copy. D'Alembert's first exposure to music theory was in 1749 when he was called upon to review a Mémoire submitted to the Académie by Jean-Philippe Rameau. This article, written in conjunction with Diderot, would later form the basis of Rameau's 1750 treatise Démonstration du principe de l'harmonie. D'Alembert wrote a glowing review praising the author's deductive character as an ideal scientific model. He saw in Rameau's music theories support for his own scientific ideas, a fully systematic method with a strongly deductive synthetic structure. Two years later, in 1752, d'Alembert attempted a fully comprehensive survey of Rameau's works in his Eléments de musique théorique et pratique suivant les principes de M. Rameau. Emphasizing Rameau's main claim that music was a mathematical science that had a single principle from which could be deduced all the elements and rules of musical practice as well as the explicit Cartesian methodology employed, d'Alembert helped to popularize the work of the composer and advertise his own theories. He claims to have "clarified, developed, and simplified" the principles of Rameau, arguing that the single idea of the corps sonore was not sufficient to derive the entirety of music. D'Alembert instead claimed that three principles would be necessary to generate the major musical mode, the minor mode, and the identity of octaves. Because he was not a musician, however, d'Alembert misconstrued the finer points of Rameau's thinking, changing and removing concepts that would not fit neatly into his understanding of music.

Diderot, Denis and Jean Baptiste Le Rond d'Alembert

Recueil de Planches: Agriculture Et Economie Rustique [Rural and Peasant Life and Industry in 18th Century France] for the Engravings from Denis Diderot and Jean Baptiste le Rond D'Alembert: Encyclopédie, Ou Dictionnaire Raisonné Des Sciences, Des Arts Et Des Métiers. First Edition

Paris: Chez Briasson, David & Le Breton, 1762-1767. 395 x 255 mm. with 18 pages of letterpress descriptions Rustic economy. Rustic economy is the art of knowing the useful and profitable products of the countryside, appropriating and conserving them, and drawing the greatest possible advantage from them. This method of enriching oneself has unlimited scope: it is a tax imposed on all matter, even on the elements. A simple exposition of the subjects embraced by the term 'rustic economy' would be a considerable undertaking. [1] These are the primary ones: whoever wishes to live in the countryside and profit from his stay there should know the arts of agriculture and gardening in the finest detail. He should be ignorant of nothing which pertains to the buildings he requires for himself and his family, servants, animals, and various crops; hunting, fishing, and falconry; stud farms, water, and forests; rustic work, and the manufacture of a variety of products such as stoneware, pottery, lime, brick, iron, etc. Although a man who devotes himself entirely to such pursuits is scorned by the common man, these activities are all in accordance with nature, sound health, the broadening of useful knowledge, the elevation of the mind, a simple life, a taste for good things, virtue, the commonweal, integrity, and good sense. For those subjects which pertain to rustic economy, consult sections of this dictionary and articles: Hunting, Fishing, Agriculture, Pheasantry, Falconry, Gardening, Soil cultivation, etc. .
