A scarce eighteenth-century Paris edition of François de Salignac de La Mothe-Fénelon's Œuvres Philosophiques, printed in 1739.

 

One of the most influential religious and philosophical voices of early modern France, Fénelon explores the existence and attributes of God through reason, nature, and theological reflection.

 

Preserved in its original speckled leather binding with gilt-decorated spine and marbled edges, the volume retains a contemporary ownership inscription dated 1774, offering a direct connection to the world in which it was first read.

 

An attractive example of Enlightenment-era French printing and a desirable piece for collectors of philosophy, theology, and early European books.
