SCIENCE - CHAPTAL Jean-Antoine (1756 - 1832) - Partly printed letter signed Partly printed letter signed, dated “Paris, le 17 Brumaire an XIII” by the French chemist, physician, agronomist, industrialist, statesman. Chaptal made his way into this elite company in Paris beginning in the 1780s, and established his credentials as a serious scientist most definitely with the publication of his first major scientific treatise, the “Ėléments de chimie” (3 vols, Montpellier, 1790). His treatise brought the term "nitrogen" into the revolutionary new chemical nomenclature developed by Lavoisier. By 1795, at the newly established École Polytechnique in Paris, Chaptal shared the teaching of courses in pure and applied chemistry with Claude-Louis Berthollet, the doyen of the science. In 1798, Chaptal was elected a member of the prestigious Chemistry Section of the Institut de France. He became president of the section in 1802 soon after Napoleon appointed him Minister of Interior. Addressed to M. Reyset, “reserveur générale du Mont-Tonnerre, à Mayence”: “…Je vous fais passer, Monsieur, une ordonnance, de 1075 fr que le chancelier du Sénat a fait expedier, aui profit de Pierre Lahr, entrepreneur, demeurant à Weinstein, dans l’arrondissement du bureau des domanes d’Alzey, départ du Mont-Tonnerre, et mon mandat de cette somme que je vous prie de lui payer…”. 2 pp. In-4. - This item is under temporary import.
