173240413Amsterdam: Chez Henry du Sauzet 1732. 12mo 17.5 cm 6.89". xxxii 306 10 index pp. <br><br>This disapproving account of voluntary flagellation appears here in its revised and corrected second French edition following the first of 1701 and the original Latin of 1700. Boileau was one of the earliest authors to connect the ancient religious practice directly to erotic motivations and concludes with a medical assessment of such deviancy including a final proverb: "Le foüet est pour le Cheval le mords pour l'Asne & la verge pour le dos de l'Insensé."<br>Â Â Â Â Although some sources claim Boileau translated his own text into French the BNF considers that a false attribution and credits Abbé François Granet with both editing and translating the text. This version by Dutch printer du Sauzet features a title-page printed in red and black and simple but elegant typesetting.<br>Â Â Â Â Binding: Contemporary calf spine with gilt-stamped title and date gilt-ruled raised bands and gilt-stamped compartment decorations; covers framed in triple gilt fillets turn-ins with a gilt roll. Handsome marbled endpapers and all edges gilt. => Signed binding with front free endpaper stamped "Koehler."<br>Â Â Â Â Provenance: Front free endpaper with garter-design ex-libris rubber-stamp of G. Manessier. Later in the residue of the stock of the F. Thomas Heller bookselling firm est. ca. 1928. Bound as above leather scuffed and rubbed. Small area of worming to outer margins of some leaves not touching text. Pages gently age-toned otherwise clean. => A pleasing elegant little volume. Chez Henry du Sauzet hardcover books
