René Aubert de VERTOT Histoire des chevaliers hospitaliers de Saint Jean de Jérusalem, appelés depuis chevaliers de Rhodes, et aujourd'hui chevaliers de Malthe

René Aubert de VERTOT

Histoire des chevaliers hospitaliers de Saint Jean de Jérusalem, appelés depuis chevaliers de Rhodes, et aujourd'hui chevaliers de Malthe

Chez Barois, Rollin, Quillau, Paris 1753-1755, 7 volumes in-12 (10x17cm), relié.


Nouvellle complete edition, consisting of Volumes I to V of the fourth edition of 1755, and Volume VI of the new edition of 1753 (published in Rollin); Volume VII of the same year in Quillau; all connected at the time evenly. Full sheepskin blond speckled period. Back smooth decorated with parts of title and volume number of brown morocco, caissons and gold jewels. All marbled. Four caps threadbare heads, two tails caps a bit rough, a bit split top few centimeters, very lightly bumped corners. Arguably the most famous and best work of the historian, on a subject of the most sought; this work was written at the request of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem, eager to capitalize on its chivalrous annals. Father Vertot met success with his first book, Madame de Sevigne and Bouhours flattered for his style, and success never wavered throughout, thus the order of Jerusalem who sought his biographer called in him in his old age. The book was born in 1726 while the author was already ill and declined.
