Per Wikipedia Charles Pinot Or Pineau Duclos 1704 - 1772 Was A French Author And Contributor To The Encyclopédie Ou Dictionnaire Raisonné Des Sciences Des Arts Et Des Métiers. Duclos Was Born At Dinan In Brittany And Studied At Paris. After Some Time Spent In Dissipation He Began To Cultivate The Society Of Wits And Joined A Club Of Young Men Who Published Their Literary Efforts Under Such Titles As Recueil De Ces Messieurs Étrennes De La Saint Jean Oufs De Pâques Etc. His Romance Acajou Et Zirphile Was The Result Of A Wager Among The Club's Members: Duclos Composed It For A Series Of Engraved Plates Intended For Another Work. He Wrote Two Other Romances Which Were Favorably Received: The Baroness De Luz 1741 And Confessions Of Count De 1747. His First Serious Publication Was The History Of Louis Xi Which Is Dry And Epigrammatical In Style But Displays Considerable Powers Of Research And Impartiality. The Reputation Of Duclos As An Author Was Confirmed By The Publication Of His Considérations Sur Les Mours De Ce Siècle 1751 A Work Justly Praised By La Harpe As Containing A Great Deal Of Sound And Ingenious Reflection. It Was Translated Into English And German. The Mémoires Pour Servir À L'histoire Du Dix-Huitième Siècle Intended By The Author As A Sort Of Sequel To The Preceding Work Are Much Inferior In Style And Matter And Are In Reality Little Better Than A Kind Of Romance. In Consequence Of His History Of Louis Xi He Was Appointed Historiographer Of France When That Place Became Vacant On Voltaire's Retirement To Prussia. His Secret Memoirs Of The Reigns Of Louis Xiv And Louis Xv For Which He Was Able To Utilize The Mémoires Of Louis De Rouvroy Duc De Saint-Simon Suppressed In 1755 Were Not Published Until After The French Revolution. A Complete Edition Of The Works Of Duclos Including An Unfinished Autobiography Was Published By Auger 1821. See Also Sainte-Beuve Causeries Du Lundi T. Ix.; René Kerviler La Bretagne Et L'académie Française Du Xviiie Siècle 1889; L. Mandon De La Valeur Historique Des Mémoires Secrets De Duclos 1872. <br/> <br/> A Quantin paperback
