AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Jeremy Bentham (1748-1832). Treatises on Civil and Penal Legislation. Paris, Bossange, Rey et Gravier, 1820, xl-368 pp. iv-379 pp., viii-455 pp.

3 volumes in-8 (210x130 mm), half calf Havana, spine with raised bands ornamented with a gold-tooled and blind-stamped motif, title and volume labels in black morocco (bindings of the period). Wear and rubbing on the spines. Occasional browning.

Second edition; complete in 3 volumes

Reassembled and revised in French by the Geneva philosopher Étienne Dumont from Bentham's manuscripts, these Treatises set out a general theory of legislation based on usefulness and the consequences of laws for society. The first volume deals with the general principles of legislation and civil law; the second is devoted to the principles of the Penal Code; the third gathers, in particular, reflections on the panopticon, the promulgation of laws, and the influence of time and place on legislation.
