Founded in 1825 by Charles Lautour-Mezeray and Émile de Girardin, the review appeared every five days and was interested in literature as well as sciences, fine arts, and social customs. It published mainly historical chronicles, travel accounts, and society pieces about France or foreign countries, stories and novellas, or sections devoted to theater, fashion, court news, and miscellaneous facts, most often reprinted from other newspapers of the period.
Copy from the André Vasseur collection bearing his bookplate.
Some scattered foxing, otherwise handsome interior condition for this rare example of a literary and general review from the early 19th century.
