with an attractive engraved frontispiece of a prodigious corn (wheat) plant, frontispiece offset onto title, woodcut head and tailpieces, and initials; pp. [viii], 50, 8vo; modern calf backed boards, spine lettered in gilt, very good. First edition and a very attractive copy of this scarce early eighteenth-century treatise on corn, by the eminent German philosopher Christian Freiherr von Wolff (1679-1754). Wolff references many continental books on crop husbandry - Spanish, French, and other German authors are all cited - critiquing these for their failure to derive conclusions from nature. He is conscious not to repeat these mistakes himself, and takes pains to emphasise that he has made a close study of corn in the field, beginning in the year 1716. In his chapter 'of blighted corn', he explains how he has taken blackened corn husks and kept them in his bedchamber, ascertaining that the blight is caused by an overabundance of moisture. This scientific method underpins this short treatise, which ends as both a detailed study of the plant in question, and bibliography (albeit critical) of other authors in the field. Wolff's life work spanned almost every scholarly subject of his time, displayed and unfolded according to his demonstrative-deductive, mathematical method, which perhaps represents the peak of Enlightenment rationality in Germany. This is said to be a translation of Erläuterung der Entdeckung der wahren Ursach von der wunderbahren Vermehrung des Getredes, but we have found no trace of a German publication either in WorldCat or KVK. In KVK the title is represented in German libraries solely in microforms or electronic versions of the present title. Scarce, with just fifteen copies listed on ESTC. (ESTC T131469).

Original o primera edición
8vo, (viii), 50 pp., fine engraved frontispiece, old green binder's cloth. First edition in English; translated from Wolff's Erluterung der Entdeckung der wahren Ursach von der wunderbahren Vermehrung des Getredes. Wolff was born in Breslau in 1679. An early dissatisfaction with the study of logic led to an interest in mathematics, and after graduating from university at Jena he lectured in the subject before becoming professor of mathematics and natural science at Halle. He was essentially a populariser, and to some extent inspired by Leibniz sought to effect a formal synthesis between scholasticism, the new mathematical methods, and more recent scientific ideas. He also inherited from Leibniz the emphasis on certain philosophical ideas, such as the principes of contradiction and of sufficient reason. Around these conceptions, Wolff organised a vast philosophical system which set the tone and produced the form in which questions were to be debated by contemporaries and successors down to the time of Kant. Wolff's researches into the growth of cereals came from his study of Lorrain de Vallemont's Curiositez de la nature et de l'art de vgtation, 1703. "Wolff resoled to make some experiments himself and, as a result of his researches, published some years later, in 1725, Erluterung der Entdeckung der wahren Ursach. This shows that Wolff realised that the production of many stems of corn from a single grain was due to the fact that in the axil of every leaf there is a bud capable of developing into a flowering stem with adventitious roots."--Henrey. A very good copy of a very uncommon book. DSB, XIV, p. 482; Henrey, II, pp. 414-5, and no. 1520.
