Necker (Jacques, finance minister, 1732-1804) Mémo manuscript fair copy signed by the author, title ruled in black and 33pp., stiched as issued with pink ribbon, small folio, [?Paris], 1778.(2) *** A rare survival. One of only a few manuscript fair copies of this sensitive document for secret circulation submitted to King Louis XVI and other high-ranking officials. The work is viewed by many as a germ of The Revolution. Early in 1778 Necker had discussed with the King the idea of the devolvement of government, particularly in relation to fiscal matters. In his Mémoire he criticised the injust exisiting tax-gathering systems and called for reforms. He believed that local assembles would lead to a fairer system. The King allowed a pilot scheme to go ahead at Bourges in Berry. The manuscript copies were circulated in secret as Necker knew that there would be strong opposition from powerful officials of the parlements and other nobles who had a vested interested in the current tax-farming system. In May 1781 Necker`s enemies obtained a copy of the manuscript and published it in order to weaken his position as finance minister. Necker`s eventual resignation was a serious blow to reform. There are a few differences between the manuscript and printed versions (a copy of the rare 1781 printed text is included with the lot). Most notably they relate to the opposition that Necker knows he will face from the parlements and the pays d`état. .
