166819477à Paris: Chez Jean Baptiste Loyson 1668. Fine. Chez Jean Baptiste Loyson à Paris 1668 12 x 18 cm relié First edition. Illustrated with a frontispiece portrait. Rare. Not found in the Bibliothèque Nationale de France French catalogues the British Library or English catalogues. Contemporary full vellum binding. Smooth unlettered spine. The work is a collection of 34 historical novellas each novella followed by Christian and moral reflections. Jean Pierre Camus was indeed the first to have used fictional literature that is to say profane means for the purpose of spiritual edification. Camus believed in the virtues of entertainment for the novellas present in this work are exclusively literary only the ""reflections"" that follow them remind us of the spiritual and not religious project. This enterprise is all the more surprising as the modern French novel was in its beginnings. The style is simple without affectation and evokes Plutarch. Chez Jean Baptiste Loyson hardcover
