Couverture rigide. Etat : Bon. NOLLET (Jean-Antoine, abbé).‎ Leçons de physique expérimentale.‎ Paris, Durand, 1771-77. 6 vol. in-8° ( 167 x 100 mm.), 1 portrait frontispice et 116 planches dépliantes h.t. gravées sur cuivre représentant les instruments et appareils de physique utilisés par l'abbé Nollet lors de ses leçons publiques. Plein veau d'époque, dos à nerfs ornés, titres de maroquin rouge. Défauts d'usage et petits manques de cuir, coiffes fatiguées. Bel exemplaire, en reliure d'époque, du plus célèbre des ouvrages de vulgarisation scientifique du XVIIIème siècle (1ere édition : 1743). Érudit et artisan de talent, Nollet travaille avec du Fay et Réaumur comme constructeur d'instruments. C'est également un excellent orateur et vulgarisateur. Ces dons, joints aux instruments scientifiques qu'il a à sa disposition, l'encouragent à se lancer dans la carrière de conférencier. Il donne la première de ses "causeries expérimentales" en 1735. Le succès est immense et la popularité de Nollet va grandissant. Il est sollicité à Turin, Bordeaux, Reims ; les commandes d'instruments sont de plus en plus nombreuses ; Voltaire lui demande en 1738 un cabinet d'instruments d'une valeur de 10 000 livres. Sa position sociale et financière est assurée ; son prestige se trouve renforcé par son élection à l'Académie des sciences en 1739. Nollet est d'abord un vulgarisateur qui a brillamment illustré une approche de la communication scientifique où l'expérimentation et la démonstration jouent un rôle essentiel. Bel exemplaire, très frais. 6 vols. 8vo. 1 frontispiece portrait, 116 engraved folding plates depicting Nollet's instruments. Contemporary full calf. The most famous scientific work for the general public of 18th century. Nollet (1700-1770) was a popularizer who brightly illustrated a new approach of scientific communication based on experiment and demonstration. In the present work, the illustration shows his style as a scientific instrument maker.

The Lettres, intended as a refutation of certain theories of Benjamin Franklin contain "a wealth of counterexamples which drew their strength from Franklin's occasional obscurities, imprecisions, exaggerations, and inappropriate appeals to traditional effluvial models." âÂÂ" Dictionary of Scientific Biography, Volume X, p. 147. "Born at Pimprez in France, Nollet was one of the great popularizers of the new electrical science in the salons and at the court of 18th-century France. He had collaborated with Charles Dufay in the period 1730âÂÂ"32 and tended to follow him in his electrical theory. Nollet saw electricity as a fluid, subtle enough to penetrate the densest of bodies. In 1746 he first formulated his theory of simultaneous 'affluences and effluences' in which he assumed that bodies have two sets of pores in and out of which electrical effluvia might flow. He was later involved with Benjamin Franklin in a dispute over the nature of electricity. After the discovery of the Leyden jar (a device for storing electrical charge) by Pieter van Musschenbroek in 1745, Nollet arranged some spectacular demonstrations of its power. He once gave a shock to 180 royal guards and, even more dramatically, joined 700 monks in a circle to a Leyden jar with quite startling results. Nollet also contributed to the theory of sound when he showed in 1743 that sound carried in water (he had taken care to expel the dissolved air from the water first)." âÂÂ" Oxford Reference. Chapters include "On the Nature of Electric Material", "On the Analogy of Thunder with electricity", "Extracts from letters of M. Villette", "To Serve as a Response to M. Villette on Previous Articles". REFERENCES: Bakken Library, p. 92; DSB, X, pp. 145-7; Mottelay, p. 182; Ronalds p.370; Wheeler Gift I, 329a. [FULL TITLE: Lettres sur L'Electricite, I.

Contemporary marbled sheep, spine gilt, red edges. Wheeler Gift, 379-379a; not in Gartrell.First edition of the first two portions (a third portion was published in 1767). A skilled researcher and professor, Nollet made a major contribution to the popularization of the physical sciences in France, studying in particular the effects of electricity."The most typical of these popularizers [alongside Maupertuis and the Marquise Du Châtelet, for example] was undoubtedly the famous Abbé Nollet. The physics course he taught in several pulpits, first in the provinces and then in Paris, was aimed above all at people of good standing, curious about the secrets of nature. He achieved great success by repeating in public the most novel experiments in physics; at this time, the phenomena of static electricity and Franklin's discoveries provided him with the subject of spectacular demonstrations" (see Daumas, Histoire de la Science, p.110).A good copy.

Figlio di poveri contadini, fu dapprima diacono a Noyon, ma poi, dedicatosi alla fisica, entrò nel laboratorio di Réaumur, e fece una serie di ricerche sul potere elettrico delle punte, sul comportamento del fluido elettrico nei tubi, sull'accelerazione dell'evaporazione nei fluidi elettrizzati, ecc. Nel 1734 fu fatto membro della Royal Society di Londra, nel 1735 inaugurò a Parigi un corso libero di fisica sperimentale, e nel 1736 il cardinale Fleury creò per lui una cattedra. Nel 1739 entrò all'Académie des sciences, insegnò poi a Torino e a Bordeaux, al Collège de Navarre, e nel 1757 fu nominato maître de physique et d'histoire naturelle des Enfants de France cioè dei principi reali. Il N. avrebbe introdotto in Francia la fisica sperimentale: l'onore in verità sembra spettare a P. Polinière: ma il N. per il primo abbracciò l'insieme della nuova scienza che arricchì di scoperte notevoli, come quella dell'endosmosi. Notevole è anche la sua teoria del fluido elettrico.

Couverture rigide. Etat : fine. 6 volumes, 12mo (170 x 97 mm). Contemporary marbled calf, spine gilt with raised bands, spine labels in red and black morocco, red edges DSB, X, 147-148.Complete set, illustrated with an engraved frntispiece and 116 egraved plates. Abbé Nollet's public lectures (1700-1770) helped popularize and disseminate physics discoveries in the mid-18th century. "With carefully orchestrated demonstrations performed on 350 different instruments, the abbé entertained his enthusiastic auditors as, in the spirit of the Enlightenment, he undertook to dispel their 'vulgar errors, extravagant fears and faith in the marvelous'. These were not mere shows, as one sees from their expanded syllabus, the famous Leçons de physique. The presentations are lively, comprehensive, and up-to-date, with full directions for realizing the effects under study and excellent illustrations of apparatus" (DSB).This famous work, originally published in 1743, was very successful and was reprinted many times. The illustrations, both precise and suggestive, show the operations and numerous instruments described in the text. The frontispiece, depicting Abbé Nollet performing an experiment in the presence of a distinguished audience, is one of the first iconographic documents to establish science as an object of culture and mundaine social life. As is often the case, the six volumes, uniformly bound at the time, come from different editions: the sixth for volumes I to III, the third for volume IV, the second for volumes V and VI.A very good copy, well preseved in its contemporary binding.

The first menace [to Nollet's theory] was the Philadelphia theory of the Leyden jar, which unfortunately for Nollet had been discovered just after the system of effluence and affluence Nollet, eager to retain the standard theory of electrical motions, insisted on transparency and mechanical action Nollet recognized these menaces and replied in an amusing set of Lettres sur l'electricité (1753), containing a wealth of counterexamples which drew their strength from Franklin's occasional obscurities, imprecisions, exaggerations and inappropriate appeals to traditional effluvial models [Nollet's] tireless ingenuity, expressed in seven memoirs and two more volumes of Lettres, kept the Academy bamboozled until his death in 1770" (DSB With 12 intaglio figures.
