Publicada ao longo de dezasseis anos (1737-1753) pelo prestigiado editor Charles-Antoine Jombert, codificou, pela primeira vez, o conhecimento disperso sobre a mecÃ¢nica dos fluidos, aplicando o rigor do cÃ¡lculo integral recÃ©m-desenvolvido a problemas prÃ¡ticos de construÃ§Ã£o civil, militar e naval. Representou um investimento editorial de grande envergadura destinado Ã s bibliotecas de aristocratas, ministros e engenheiros-chefes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA obra divide-se em duas partes, cada uma com dois volumes. Os primeiros volumes de cada parte (vols. I e III) tÃªm, nas pÃ¡ginas preliminares, dedicatÃ³ria aos senhores da Academia Real de CiÃªncias e ao Conde dâ€™Argenson, Ministro e SecretÃ¡rio de Estado da Guerra, respectivamente. Cada volume inclui um texto introdutÃ³rio, Ã­ndice de capÃ­tulos (vols. I e II nas Ãºltimas pÃ¡ginas numeradas; vols. III e IV em pÃ¡ginas nÃ£o numeradas), aprovaÃ§Ã£o real, privilÃ©gio do rei e, nos Ãºltimos volumes de cada parte (vols. II e IV), um catÃ¡logo comercial do editor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA primeira parte Ã© dedicada aos princÃ­pios da mecÃ¢nica e Ã  engenharia urbana: o primeiro volume tem quatro capÃ­tulos que cobrem a resistÃªncia dos materiais, o movimento das Ã¡guas e a construÃ§Ã£o de bombas, mÃ¡quinas e aquedutos; o segundo trata dos moinhos de Ã¡gua e de vento, incluindo a cÃ©lebre descriÃ§Ã£o pormenorizada da \u003cem\u003eMÃ¡quina de Marly\u003c\/em\u003e, alÃ©m de pontes e canais. A segunda parte aborda a engenharia militar e naval: construÃ§Ã£o de eclusas e portos no terceiro volume; e dragagens, gestÃ£o de rios, diques e saneamento urbano no quarto. O arranjo grÃ¡fico desta parte Ã© um pouco diferente, passando a incluir uma folha de anterrosto e alterando pequenas informaÃ§Ãµes no rosto, nomeadamente o local de ediÃ§Ã£o que passa da Â«Rue S. JacquesÂ» para a Â«Rue DauphineÂ».\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA \u003cem\u003eArchitecture Hydraulique\u003c\/em\u003e revolucionou a prÃ¡tica da engenharia ao fundamentar matematicamente tÃ©cnicas atÃ© entÃ£o transmitidas empiricamente. BÃ©lidor utilizou o cÃ¡lculo de Leibniz e Newton para determinar questÃµes complexas como o centro de pressÃ£o em comportas e a eficiÃªncia das rodas hidrÃ¡ulicas, estabelecendo uma metodologia que influenciou directamente engenheiros como John Smeaton na GrÃ£-Bretanha. Apesar de alguns erros de cÃ¡lculo posteriormente corrigidos por Claude-Louis Navier na ediÃ§Ã£o revista de 1819, a obra permaneceu como referÃªncia incontornÃ¡vel durante quase um sÃ©culo, conhecendo numerosas reediÃ§Ãµes e traduÃ§Ãµes para alemÃ£o e portuguÃªs (extractos traduzidos por Manoel Jacinto Nogueira da Gama em 1800). A qualidade das gravuras, executadas pelos melhores artistas grÃ¡ficos da Ã©poca, confere Ã  obra um valor artÃ­stico que transcende a sua funÃ§Ã£o tÃ©cnica.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eO possuidor deste exemplar, Filipe de Vilhena, foi fidalgo cavaleiro da Casa Real e diplomata portuguÃªs que serviu na LegaÃ§Ã£o de Portugal em SÃ£o Petersburgo no final do sÃ©culo XVIII. Membro do cÃ­rculo restrito da elite ilustrada portuguesa, Vilhena era pai de Maria Guiomar de Vilhena e sogro de figuras ligadas aos Condes das Galveias, cuja biblioteca no PalÃ¡cio do Campo Pequeno conservava documentos de extrema sensibilidade polÃ­tica. A presenÃ§a da \u003cem\u003eArchitecture Hydraulique\u003c\/em\u003e na biblioteca de um diplomata com acesso a assuntos reservados do estado reflecte a importÃ¢ncia atribuÃ­da pela elite portuguesa ao conhecimento tÃ©cnico francÃªs como instrumento de modernizaÃ§Ã£o estatal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBernard Forest de BÃ©lidor (Catalunha, 1698 â€“ Paris, 1761) foi engenheiro militar, matemÃ¡tico e tratadista francÃªs.

Those of the first two volumes are slightly different from the latter, both in terms of the ornamentation used in the gilt tooling and in the edges, which are marbled in the first two volumes, with a pattern similar to that of the endpapers, and crimson in the latter. Volumes I and II preserve a green silk ribbon bookmark. The label on the third volume is engraved with 'Tomo I' instead of 'Tomo III'.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProfusely illustrated with 219 fold-out engravings in the text, distributed throughout the volumes as follows: I â€” 44; II â€” 55; III â€” 60; IV â€” 60. Produced by some of the finest technical engravers of the period, such as Antoine HÃ©risset (1685â€“1769), Robert FranÃ§ois Bonnart (fl. 1726â€“1759) and Jacques Rigaud (1681â€“1754), the engravings depict technical diagrams with engineering calculations and various types of hydraulic machinery: water and wind mills, pumps and lifting machines, aqueducts and pipelines, locks and ports, river and maritime works. It also includes tables in the text.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith the exception of the third volume, all open with a beautiful allegorical frontispiece engraved by Rigaud, different in each volume, depicting hydraulic machinery such as mills, fountains and water jets against stunning landscapes; the third volume, in turn, includes a portrait of the author engraved by J. G. Will in 1750 from a painting by L. VigÃ©e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMagnificent printing in round type and some italics characters on high-quality paper, thicker in the first volume than in the others. The typographical ornaments were executed by distinguished artists such as Pierre Soubeyran, FranÃ§ois-Antoine Aveline, Nicolas Cochin fils, Flipart, and Chedel. Black and red title pages decorated with: woodcut with plant motifs in volume I; copperplate engraving by Soubeyran with military instruments in volume II; copperplate engraving by Cochin and Flipart with the Virgin and Child, surrounded by engineering instruments in volumes III and IV. The dedications are topped by elaborate chalcographic frontispieces: in the first volume, an engraving by Soubeyran with seven \u003cem\u003eputti\u003c\/em\u003e and scientific instruments in a room at the Academy; in the third volume, a frontispiece by Aveline with a military allegory and the caption 'Belicae Virtutis Praemium'.

Library shelf labels (16\/17\/18\/19) glued to the spines. Filipe de Vilhena's signature on the front flyleaf of all volumes. Contemporary ink annotations on page 187 of the first volume, crossing out and correcting passages in the text. Slight damp stains on the first and last pages of each volume. In the third volume, engravings VII, XIV, XVIII, XXVII, XXXVI and XLVII show moisture damage on the sides and minor damage caused by incorrect folding, without compromising their readability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePages 389 to 412 of the first volume are numbered 289 to 312, a collation error that characterises the first edition of this work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRare and highly important first edition of this monumental treatise on hydraulic engineering, considered the founding work of the discipline and the first technical text to systematically apply integral calculus to practical engineering problems. Published over sixteen years (1737-1753) by the prestigious publisher Charles-Antoine Jombert, it codified, for the first time, the scattered knowledge on fluid mechanics, applying the rigour of the newly developed integral calculus to practical problems in civil, military and naval construction. It represented a major publishing investment aimed at the libraries of aristocrats, ministers and chief engineers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe work is divided into two parts, each with two volumes. The first volumes of each part (vols. I and III) contain, in the preliminary pages, dedications to the gentlemen of the Royal Academy of Sciences and to the Count d'Argenson, Minister and Secretary of State for War, respectively. Each volume includes an introductory text, a table of contents (vols. I and II on the last numbered pages; vols. III and IV on unnumbered pages), royal approval, the king's privilege and, in the last volumes of each part (vols. II and IV), a commercial catalogue from the publisher.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first part is devoted to the principles of mechanics and urban engineering: the first volume has four chapters covering the strength of materials, the movement of water, and the construction of pumps, machines, and aqueducts; the second deals with water and windmills, including the famous detailed description of the Marly Machine, as well as bridges and canals. The second part deals with military and naval engineering: the construction of locks and ports in the third volume; and dredging, river management, dykes and urban sanitation in the fourth. The graphic layout of this part is slightly different, now including a frontispiece and changing minor details on the cover, namely the place of publication, which changes from 'Rue S. Jacques' to 'Rue Dauphine'.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eArchitecture Hydraulique\u003c\/em\u003e revolutionised engineering practice by providing a mathematical basis for techniques that had previously been passed down empirically. BÃ©lidor used Leibniz and Newton's calculus to determine complex issues such as the centre of pressure in sluice gates and the efficiency of water wheels, establishing a methodology that directly influenced engineers such as John Smeaton in Great Britain. Despite some calculation errors later corrected by Claude-Louis Navier in the revised edition of 1819, the work remained an essential reference for almost a century, undergoing numerous reissues and translations into German and Portuguese (excerpts translated by Manoel Jacinto Nogueira da Gama in 1800). The quality of the engravings, executed by the best graphic artists of the time, gives the work an artistic value that transcends its technical function.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe owner of this copy, Filipe de Vilhena, was a noble knight of the Royal House and a Portuguese diplomat who served in the Portuguese Legation in Saint Petersburg at the end of the 18th century. A member of the restricted circle of the Portuguese enlightened elite, Vilhena was the father of Maria Guiomar de Vilhena and father-in-law of figures linked to the Counts of Galveias, whose library in the Campo Pequeno Palace held documents of extreme political sensitivity. The presence of Architecture Hydraulique in the library of a diplomat with access to confidential state affairs reflects the importance attached by the Portuguese elite to French technical knowledge as an instrument of state modernisation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBernard Forest de BÃ©lidor (Catalonia, 1698 â€“ Paris, 1761) was a French military engineer, mathematician and treatise writer. Orphaned at five months old, he was raised by his godfather, the artillery officer de FossiÃ©bourg. He taught mathematics at the Ã‰cole de l'Artillerie in La FÃ¨re, became a member of the Royal Academies of Sciences of England and Prussia, and a correspondent for the Paris Academy. He participated in geodetic work to measure the meridian arc and attained the rank of colonel of infantry and knight of the Order of Saint Louis. In addition to \u003cem\u003eArchitecture Hydraulique\u003c\/em\u003e, he published \u003cem\u003eNouveau cours de mathÃ©matique\u003c\/em\u003e (1725), \u003cem\u003eLa Science des ingÃ©nieurs\u003c\/em\u003e (1729) and \u003cem\u003eLe Bombardier franÃ§ais\u003c\/em\u003e (1731), works that defined the technical training of French military engineers in the 18th century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eObs.:This work weighs more than 5 kg and is subject to extra shipping costs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReferÃªncias\/References:\u003cbr\u003eCatalogue BnF, FRBNF39315933 [ark:\/12148\/cb393159330].\u003cbr\u003eBritannica Editors.
