Das Genie des Hrn. Hume. Oder: Sammlung der vorzüglichsten Grundsätze dieses Philosophen [trans. J.G. Bremer]. Leipzig: Christian Gottlob Hilscher, 1774.

First German translation of the early French anthology of extracts from Hume's writings, "Le Génie de M. Hume, ou Analyse de ses Ouvrages, dans laquelle on pourra prendre une idée exacte des moeurs, des usages, des coutumes, des loix & du gouvenement du peuple anglois". Londres & Paris, 1770 (Chuo 102). This German translation is much rarer than the French original: WorldCat records only four copies, three in Germany and one at the British Library; to these we can add McGill and NLS. PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: 8vo, [xvi], 348 pp., contemporary boards, fairly rubbed and with wear at extremities, very light foxing to first and last few leaves, isolated spots, rear endpaper and pastedown with contemporary annotations, genarally a good clean copy.
