These 4 memoirs which blend dialogues and interrogations entertained all of Paris even Madame Du Barry and were performed everywhere in cafés and on the boulevards as they constitute a formidable comedy in which lies are ultimately revealed. Beaumarchais was indeed acquitted in the case that opposed him to Judge Goezman; the latter was the reporting judge in his trial regarding the Paris-Duverney inheritance which ruined and dishonored the author. Beaumarchais accused Goezman of corruption and the judge in turn accused Beaumarchais of defamation and attempted corruption. Judge Goezman constitutes above all a symbol of the corruption of the new Parliament erected by Louis XV and of the arbitrariness of justice. Imprimerie de Valleyre hardcover

These four memoirs blending dialogues and interrogations captivated all of Parisincluding Madame Du Barryand were performed in cafés and along the boulevards. They read like a brilliant comedy in which deception is ultimately unmasked. Beaumarchais was eventually acquitted in the case that opposed him to Judge Goezman who had been the reporting magistrate in the Paris-Duverney inheritance case that had brought Beaumarchais to financial ruin and public disgrace.

Je vous prie d'accepter les rèveries de mon bonnet.<br /></strong>Je n'entends point m'acquiter auvers vous ; mais seulement vous engager a vous contenter de ma part de ce léger tribut d'une vive reconnaissance.<br />Beaumarchais<br />ce 15 floréal "</em><br /><em>" Rep. Le 18 "</em></p><p>This letter is part of a sequence of epistolary exchanges between Beaumarchais and Pierre-Charles-Louis Baudin. We know Baudin's reply to the "18 floréal" as indicated by him in the lower margin: "My political abortions cannot become the equivalent of your dramatic work. As I read it with avidity I perfectly felt how necessary Susanne's bottle was. Your Irishman suffocates me … however observed that on the one hand political fanaticism as well as religious fanaticism explains many facts which seem to exceed the known measure of human wickedness; that on the other hand what we have seen that is most atrocious most revolting and above all most disgusting had a character of brutal frankness whereas in your Tartuffe it is a question of a refinement of hipocrite blackness so managed spun with so much art … ". <em>Beaumarchais et le Courrier de l'Europe</em>. Ed. Gunnar & Mavis von Proschwitz. <em>Studies on Voltaire and the Eighteenth Century</em>. Oxford : The Voltaire Foundation 1990 ; p. 1173-1174 n°628.</p><p>When Baudin evokes the characters "Irish" Bégearss "Suzanne" Figaro's wife and more broadly the praise he makes of the theatrical drama of his correspondent we understand that the text sent by Beaumarchais is the third part of his <em>Spanish</em> Figaro <em>trilogy</em>: <em>The</em> <em>Guilty Mother</em>.<br />The play performed on 26 June 1792 at the Théâtre du Marais was a failure. The revival at the Théâtre de la rue Feydeau on 16 Floréal of the year V 5 May 1797 that is to say the day after this letter was this time crowned with great success. The play represents the third part of the Figaro trilogy after<em> The Barber of Seville</em> 1775 and <em>The Marriage of Figaro</em> 1778. Beaumarchais himself wrote a notice to comment on this third and final act: "After having laughed at the Barber of Seville at the turbulent youth of Count Almaviva after having gaily considered in the Mad Day <em>The Marriage of Figaro</em> the faults of his virile age come and convince yourself by the picture of his old age that every man who is not born a dreadful villain always ends up being good. "</p><p>Although no letter between Voltaire and Beaumarchais has come down to us today we nevertheless know the esteem in which they were held. In his book<em> Voltaire's Kehl Edition</em>. <em>L'édition Kehl de Voltaire. Une aventure éditoriale et littéraire au tournant des Lumières</em> Linda Gil explains that "Their relationship is built on mutual admiration. Beaumarchais read Voltaire and admired his works. His own writing is often influenced by the style of the philosopher. As for Voltaire "he cites Beaumarchais as an example to D'Alembert he compares himself to him. A good part of his correspondence from the first months of 1774 is occupied with it."</p><p><u>Provenance:</u><br />Vente Cornuau 25-26 mai 1934<br />A.
