"ESSAIS SUR L'ESPRIT et les Beaux esprits." (Fontenelle circa 1740) In Amsterdam, by the Bernard Brothers. 42 pages (18.5 x 11 cm): "What is the spirit, this universal instrument, this precious gift of Nature... And how many forms of spirits are there?... We shall not enter here into any discussion of metaphysics, or even physics... Our whole aim is to determine with precision ideas which have not yet been fixed by any writer, even by those who may have thought they had delved deeply into the subject...".
