1735|17 x 25 cm|relié
Manuscript of a complete manual of classical philosophy. At the colophon we find the mention: Finis moralis et philosophiae a R. D. Dussolier eraditae. Overall the writing is fine and regular, very legible but in a small script. Two dates are found at the end of two parts, the first dated 1735 at the end of the Metaphysicae, the second 1734 at the end of the Physicae with once again the nomination of the author: R. Dno Dussolier peritissimo philosophiae proffessore in regio annecii gymnasio. The work appears to gather the complete courses on philosophy, over several years, by Professor Dussolier at Annecy.
One figure in the compendium, 88 in the physica of which some are in colors (physics experiments, astronomy...). The titles and ends of parts are calligraphed.
Boards having lost their vellum covering of which some traces can still be seen. The cardboard is worn, with traces of glue on the spine, lacks to the joints at head and foot. There is no endpaper before the first leaf and after the last. One detached gathering (p. 134 to 159) in the fourth part.
Bookplate in the form of a slip inserted before the first leaf: "Cette philosophie appartient à Jean François Baillard qui l'a eue de Jacques Amblet qui lui en a fait présent l'an mille sept cent quatre vingt treize le 12 juillet. Annecy" ["This philosophy belongs to Jean François Baillard who received it from Jacques Amblet who gave it to him as a present in the year one thousand seven hundred ninety-three on July 12. Annecy"].
The manuscript contains a complete system of philosophy. It begins with an introduction to philosophy followed by commentaries, then comes the classical quadripartition of 17th-century philosophy between Logic, Metaphysics, Physics and Ethics.
