Descartes (René) Les Passions de l'Ame, first edition, title with printer's woodcut device, woodcut initials and tail-pieces, very occasional light spotting, bookplate to front pastedown 'Henry Edward Bunbury', printers waste from a C17th English work used as endpapers, browned, contemporary calf, sympathetically rebacked preserving original spine, spine gilt with morocco label, corners rubbed, [Garrison Morton 4965, Norman 626; Willems 1083], 8vo, Amsterdam, Louys Elzevier, 1649.⁂ One of Descartes' most influential works, published the year before his death, The Passions is the fullest account of his understanding of the interaction between body and soul, setting forth his famous theory of the pineal gland. Consistent with his dualistic view, Descartes espoused the total distinctiveness of body and soul, and simultaneously equated the soul with the mind. From this, based on reasoning that alone of all parts of the brain the pineal gland was without a double, he argued that it was the unique locus for connection between the material body and immaterial mind. Although he had written privately on this subject already in Traité de l'Homme during the 1630s, this remained unpublished until after his death. Indeed, Descartes was reluctant even to publish The Passions, since he claimed its original purpose served only as part of his dialogue with the Princess Elisabeth of Bohemia (with whom he held an intimate correspondence between 1643-45), and of whose mind alone he was confident of being sufficiently elevated to understand his arguments contained therein.
