Chez Jean-Frederic Bernard, à Amsterdam 1731, In-12 (10x17cm), (12) 222pp. ; 235pp. (4), 2 tomes en un volume relié.
New edition, but first in this form and this title.
Binding in full fawn marbled calf of time. Ornate nerved back. title label in red morocco. A lack in mind. Narrow slit in the lower joint at the head on 1cm. Friction. Good copy.
These memoirs had appeared for the first time in addition to the 1729 edition of Baron de Foeneste's Adventures under the title of "Secret History".
"This edition is much closer to the original manuscript than that of 1729 established by the unscrupulous care of Le Duchat under the title of Secret History" (cf. Agrippa d'Aubigné et son temps, p. 64).
Several pieces complete the Memoirs of Aubigné, those of Frédéric-Maurice de La Tour d'Auvergne, composed by Aubertin his servant, then a fragment of a relation of the court of France by Priolo and the History of Madame de Mucy by Guillaume de Valdory. There is also a letter from Scarron to Mr. Fouquet written on the occasion of the dispute between Scarron and Gilles Boileau, brother of Nicolas Boileau Despréaux.
