181714128Paris: A la Librairie d'Education d'Alexis Eymery.Et chez lAuteur. 1817 First edition of a rare book outlining a course of education for young girls. We were unable to locate another copy of this book in OCLC RLIN COPAC KVK or even the Biblliothèque Nationale. This is an abridgement of the author's other work Cours pratique d'Education à l'usage des jeunes Demoiselles which was published in three volumes from 1816 to 1817. This larger work is also rare. We could locate copies only in the Bibliothèque Nationale and Radboud Universiteit in Nijmegen Germany. Contemporary mottled sheep gilt spine with brown morocco label. Lacks the front free endpaper. . Twelvemo. Sixteen engraved plates of calligraphic models following p. 42 included in the pagination large engraved folding map preceding the geography section and nine plates showing principles of design not included in the pagination after the art section. Musical notation in the text within the music section. With the printed preliminary leaf stating that this is an authorized book and not a piracy signed by the author and the publisher. Small chip at head of spine twentieth-century ownership marks on front pastedown. A little light foxing. Overall a very good copy of a rare book. Little is known of the author who is credited with several books on education. His Principes élementaire de lecture d'ecriture de musique et de dessin 1817 was also published by Eymery. OCLC cites one copy of that book at the University of Delaware. We suspect it is also an abridgement of Cours pratique d'Education but it is smaller than our book. The calligraphy plates are by Alexandre Bourgoin who was a celebrated writing master and wrote several books on the subject. His birth and death dates are not listed in any of the souces we checked.

Very rare first and only edition of a compendious educational work intended for girls dedicated in the newly restored Bourbon monarchy to Marie Thérèse de France 1778-1851 Duchesse d'Angoulême and daughter of King Louis XVI and Queen Marie Antoinette the only heir directly descended from Louis XVI to survive the Revolution. The dedication itself appears in volume 1 1817 but is noted on all three title-pages so also 1816. The present copy is in a beautiful armorial morocco binding clearly intended as a dedication copy for Marie Thérèse with her arms on both boards of each volume. She had married her first cousin Louis Antoine d'Artois 1775-1844 Duc d'Angoulême in 1799 he was to be King of France for 20 minutes in 1830 when his father and he abdicated then pretender to the throne calling himself Louis XIX. She was nearly forty and childless when the book appeared soon after the 1814/15 restoration of the Bourbon monarchy with her uncle as King Louis XVIII. Rather than impale the husband's and father's arms as the English did French ladies displayed them side by side: courtoisie. The book contains lessons in all subjects girls of good family should be taught. The first volume covers French grammar and syntax with separate courses for younger and older girls followed by a basic course in rhetoric. The second volume covers arithmetic and geography in single extensive courses. The third and last volume covers history and mythology again with separate courses for the younger and older girls both presented like a catechism. with questions and answers for the children to learn by heart. In fine condition with only a small tear in the folding table and occasional very minor foxing.
