DUPLEIX, Scipion.

Corps de Philosophie contenant la Logique, La Physique, La Métaphysique et l'Ethyque.

Rouen, Jean Baptiste Behourt, 1640.

More Details >

950 €

the "Corps de philosophie" or sometimes "Cours de philosophie" are more or less complete collections of the works of the Dupleix of which we know many editions.
Our copy, similar to that noted by Dorbon [1376], is composed as follows:
- "La Logique" in eight books.
- "Physics or science of natural things" in eight books.
- and the first eight books of the "The Metaphysics or supernatural science".

If the structure of this philosophy course is inspired by Aristotle's Compendium philosophiae as it was taught in all the faculties of the time. The content is very different and often deals with magic, sorcery of the angelic world. The Eighth Book of Physics is concerned with the soul, and the last parts of Metaphysics constitute a veritable treatise on Angels and Demons.

From a follower of the Boucicaut Master.

The painter uses an extensive palette with sharp contrasts, and does not hesitate to use a bright minium red that he contrasts with the blues and greens in the happiest of ways.
The abstract backgrounds and the systematic use of a grassy ground, give to the whole manuscript a beautiful coherence and a great elegance.

Some of the preserved paintings, such as those of the Annunciation to the Shepherds, the Crucifixion, and St. Margaret, bear witness to the artist's talent and the high quality of this manuscript.

It should be noted that the composition of the The Flight into Egypt is closely mirrors of a Boucicaut composition.
