[Franklin, Benjamin (1706-90); Antoine Lavoisier (1743-94), Jean-Sylvain Bailly (1736-93) et al.] Exposé des expériences qui ont été faites pour l'examen du magnétisme animal, lu à l'Académie des Sciences . . . 16pp. N.p., 1784. 212 x 141 mm. (uncut). Original plain wrappers. Paper flaw in last leaf, but fine otherwise. Early Octavo Edition, issued in the same year as the official quarto edition printed by the Imprimerie Royale. OCLC records two octavo editions, one with imprint reading "A Paris: Chez Moutard, Imprimeur-Libraire de la Reine . . . M.DCC.LXXXIV" and the other simply dated "1784" with no place or publisher information, as in our copy. The typesetting also differs between the two editions: The Moutard edition has 15 pages with blank page 16, while our edition has 16 printed pages. After the Franklin commission issued its official report on animal magnetism, a shorter précis of its findings was read by Bailly before the Académie des Sciences on 4 September 1784; this was then published under the title Exposé des expériences . . . As noted above, the Exposé was issued in both quarto and octavo format. Not in Duveen, Bibliography of the Works of Antoine-Laurent Lavoisier, which records only the Moutard edition. .

[Franklin, Benjamin (1706-90); Antoine Lavoisier (1743-94), Jean-Sylvain Bailly (1736-93) et al.] Rapport des commissaires chargés par le Roi, de l'examen du magnétisme animal. 4to. 66pp. Paris: Imprimerie Royale, 1784. 238 x 187 mm. 18th-century ownership signature of [Gabriel] Depéret de Maury, physician of Limoges. Bound with: Extrait des registres de la Société royale de médecine. Séance du 24 août 1784. 4pp. Paris: Ph.-D. Pierres, 1784. Together 2 works in 1. Recent full morocco tooled in gilt and blind in antique style. Tear in the Rapport's title-leaf mended, light toning but very good. First Quarto Edition; the official edition, printed at the French king's private press in the Louvre. This copy bears the ownership signature of Gabriel Depéret de Maury, a Limoges physician who played a minor administrative role in the French revolutionary government; he also published a dissertation on opium. In the spring of 1784 the French government, no longer able to ignore the challenges to established medicine and politics posed by Mesmer and his followers, appointed two separate commissions to investigate animal magnetism. The first commission, presided over by Benjamin Franklin (then the U.S. Ambassador to France), consisted of nine members, including chemist Antoine Lavoisier, astronomer Jean-Sylvain Bailly and Joseph-Ignace Guillotin, inventor of the guillotine. This commission decided to investigate animal magnetism as practiced by Mesmer's disciple Charles d'Eslon, since d'Eslon, unlike Mesmer, welcomed an official inquiry. After observing d'Eslon at work and performing several tests on his clients, the Franklin commission concluded that mesmeric "fluid" did not exist, and that the convulsions and other effects produced by animal magnetism were merely the products of imagination and imitation. The commission's report, edited by Bailly, unleashed a storm of controversy that raged for many years, with dozens of pamphlets and books published on both sides. Bound with this copy is a four-page summary of the report of the second commission appointed to investigate animal magnetism. This commission, made up of five members of the Société Royale de Médecine, also condemned Mesmer and his practices.
