Hardcover. Condition: Fair. No Jacket. xliv, 427, [1] p. front. (port.) 19 cm. ; LCCN: 07-16594 ; LC: PZ3.M3368; Dewey: 843.31 ; OCLC: 5304500 ; brown blind stamped tooling shaken ; Translated from the French. With a memoir of the author. By Walter K . Kelly. ; This has been several times reprinted. The translation is a very free rendering of M. de Lincy's text ; wicked tales of amorous and erotic intrigues, thinly veiled as fiction, in fact relate to many true events in European history ; "Two children were born of the marriage of Charles of Orleans, Count of Angoulcme, a prince of the blood royal of France, and Louise, the daughter of Philip Duke of Savoy, and Margaret of Bourbon. The elder of the two was Margaret, the principal subject of this memoir, born on the nth of April, 1492 ; the younger, born on the 12th of September, 1494, was the prince who succeeded Louis XII. on the throne of France, February, 1515, under the name of Francis I.Amidst the multifarious occupations of her well-filled life, the Queen of Navarre found leisure to compose a great number of literary works, besides carrying on a voluminous correspondence with her brother, his ministers, and many other person. Her productions in verse, the greater part of which have been printed, consist of eight long poems on sacred, amorous, or historical subjects ; eight dramatic pieces, including four mysteries, two moralities, and two farces ; poetical epistles to her brother, her mother, and the King of Navarre ; and rondeaux, dixains songs, and other small pieces. According to the last editors of the Heptameron, some of Margaret's fugitive pieces, published by them for the first time, are superior as literary works to her more serious compositions, and in them alone are to be found the gaiety and grace for which she has been so much celebrated by her contemporaries." ; Partial contents: A woman of Alencon having two lovers -- Chaste and lamentable death of the wife of one of the Queen of Navarre's muleteers -- A king of Naples, having debauched the wife of a gentleman, at last wears horns himself -- Presumptuous attempt of a gentleman upon a Princess of Flanders, and the shame it brought upon him -- A boatwoman escapes from two Cordeliers, who wanted to force her, and exposes them to public derision -- Stratagem by which a woman enabled her gallant to escape, when her husband, who was blind of an eye, thought to surprise them together -- Trick put by a mercer of Paris upon an old woman to conceal his intrigue with her daughter -- A mull having lain with his wife, believing that he was in bed with his servant, sends his friend to do the same thing ; and the friend makes a cuckold of him without the wife being aware of it -- Deplorable death of a lover in consequence of his knowing too late that he was beloved by his mistress -- The loves of Amadoitr and Florida, wherein are seen several stratagems and dissimulations, and ihe exemplary chastity of Florida -- An odorous adventure which befell Madame de Roncex at the Franciscan Monastery of Thouars -- Facetious sayings of a Cordelier in his sermons .-- Incontinence and tyranny of a Duke of Florence, Just punishment ol his wickedness -- A captain of a galley,under the cloak of devotion, fell in love with a demoiselle, what happened in consequence -- Subtlety of a lover, who, counterfeiting the real favourite, found meant to recompense himself for his past troubles -- A lady of the court, seeing herself neglected by her husband, whose love was bestowed elsewhere, retaliated upon him -- A Milanese lady tested her lover's courage, and afterwards loved him heartily -- King Francis gives a signal proof of his courage in the case of Count Guillaume, who designed his death -- A lady tests the fidelity of a young student, her lover, before granting him her favours, etc, etc ; FAIR.

Published by Paris 'Chez la veuve Etienne libraire Rue St. Tarquer, vis a vis la rue du Plastre' manuscript facsimile title page 1747, 1747
Seller: Christian White Rare Books Ltd, Ilkley, YORKS, United Kingdom
Book
Fair copy in French from the 1740s of much of Rollin's Histoire Ancienne together with an original continuation of the work up to the present day: 'De L'histoire depuis. J.[esus] C[hrist]' which deals with 'Le Royaume d'Angleterre' and the execution of Mary Stuart by Elizabeth I. Small quarto bound in parchment over pasteboard with traces of printed material visible within the binding; scuffing to extremities but overall a very good binding. Written in black ink on paper with horizontal chain lines, watermark incorporating a Fleur de Lis design - apparently a different paper stock later in the manuscript: [4] pp361; [4] [pp] 34 [6] [pp] 26. Calligraphic manuscript half title 'Histoire Ancienne' with a signature below, closed tear near gutter; full manuscript title page, partially calligraphic, again with a signature presumably of the copyist - perhaps 'M. Bayle' or 'M. Royle'? The manuscript title follows the format of the printed title page of an Etienne edition: 'Chez la veuve Etienne libraire Rue St. Tarquer, vis a vis la rue du Plastre.' The text is set out in a miniscule hand, written within a pencilled box, recto and verso with extensive marginal notes. There is also some later marginalia, written at right angles to the text as well as an interpolated page, and revision/ crossing out of the marginalia - the text has been read and responded to by a later reader. Bound-in are several manuscript maps and charts: hand drawn foldout 'carte de la retraite. ' (opposite page 109); smaller foldout map (p153) foldout diagram of the classical orders (p262). This section collates: [4] pp361; [6] pp26*. Following the chronological table is the comment: 'Cet Extrait d'histoire ancienne a ete commence le 28 Juin 1747 et fini Le 12. Janvier 1748.' Three blank leaves are followed by the writer's personal rejoinder to Rollin, entitled: 'De L'histoire depuis. J.[esus] C.[hrist]' beginning with the birth of Jesus and continuing with a list of Emperors of the East and West; this narrative is picked up with the Normans and continues through the Middle Ages, offering an assessment of 'Le Royaume d'angleterre', mentioning 'Jacques VI. roy d'Ecosse, Charles I, Cromwell and son and the succession to George I. There is also a brief account of 'Marie Stuard qui regnee 1542-1567 se fut decapitee par Elizabeth, troisieme reine d'angleterre' followed by a brief reference to the subjugation of Ireland. A further 4 blank leaves and then Rollin's 'Histoire Romaine depuis la fondation de Rome. la veuve Etienne'. Large foldout chart of 'Les Environs de Rome' and 'Plan de Rome Ancienne'. The writer copies book I only: half title and semi-calligraphic title page [4] [pp] [34] 3 blanks and 'De la Sphere en General', [pp] 5 [1] 'Ode. presentee a Son Majeste par M. Rigard[?] 1745 [pp] 26. Charles Rollin (1661-1740) published his ancient history in the 1730s with his Roman history remaining unfinished at his death. It was highly influential in French thought which makes this attempt from the 1740s by a French scholar to continue the history particularly intriguing. There appear to be two signatures of the copyist/ writer which means that is quite likely that his identity can be recovered.
