1780256461780. A Londres s.ÂŽ. Cazin 1780. Un vol. au format in-16 127 x 78 mm de 1 f. bl. 1 frontispice gravÂŽ n.fol. 196 pp. et 1 f. bl. Reliure de l'ÂŽpoque de plein veau marbrÂŽ blond triple filet dorÂŽ portÂŽ sur les plats dos lisse ornÂŽ d'un filet d'encadrement dorÂŽ triples filets dorÂŽs important dÂŽcor fleuronnÂŽ dorÂŽ piÂce de titre de maroquin miel titre dorÂŽ armes dorÂŽes surmontÂŽes d'une couronne ducale en queue filet dorÂŽ sur les coupes tranches dorÂŽes. Exemplaire sous reliure aux armes ducales non identifiÂŽes portÂŽes en queue du dos. Il s'ouvre sur un joli frontispice gravÂŽ non signÂŽ. Soigneuse impression - sur papier lÂŽgÂrement bleutÂŽ - sortie des presses de Cazin. Les ÂŽditions Cazin ÂŽtaient trÂs rÂŽputÂŽes pour leur qualitÂŽ mais aussi pour leur caractÂre licencieux ce qui valut ˆ lՎditeur la saisie de livres une amende ainsi que deux sÂŽjours ˆ la Bastille. Daphnis et ChloÂŽ roman grec est attribuÂŽ ˆ Longus auteur dont on ne sait pour ainsi dire rien. Si ce n'est qu'il pourrait Âtre nÂŽ ˆ Lesbos. Le sujet de Daphnis et ChloÂŽ - InfluencÂŽ par les Idylles de ThÂŽocrite - se distingue pourtant des autres romans grecs de par son dÂŽcor bucolique et lÕironie constante qui prÂŽside au dÂŽroulement de lÕaction. Ce roman pastoral - et chef dÕÃuvre de la poÂŽsie classique - met en exergue le thÂme mythique de lÕexposition des enfants sous lÕantiquitÂŽ. Manuel du Cazinophile p. 94. Angles ÂŽmoussÂŽs. Dos prÂŽsentant un ÂŽclat lÂŽgÂrement altÂŽrÂŽ. Petite coupe affectant la piÂce de titre. Quelques discrÂtes rousseurs ou t‰ches dans le corps d'ouvrage. Du reste belle condition. b42961 unknown

1934002243France 1934. First Edition presumed. Wraps made of 18th Century French Vellum Documents. Near Fine. No text with fifteen color lithographed plates of a softcore sensibility with nudity. The only words in the story proper is the title rendered in Cyrillic. The illustrations are far from lewd yet do have a delicious kitschy quality of the second-rate book illustration and they were in their time meant to give the viewer a frisson of excitement from partaking of something mildly naughty and taboo. The illustrations feel anachronistic fitting more squarely in the twentieth century than the classical world being portrayed but perhaps that is also their charm. No one could find the illustrations pretentious or overblown and if nothing else they do capture a simplicity and innocence that are at the core of the tale. Perhaps the most special aspect of the booklet is the wraps or outer wraps to be precise made up of two sheets of vellum documents from the mid-18th century that may have come from a Royal Archive. These sheets were clearly meant to conceal the erotic contents. One of the documents is signed Besnard P and is a letter dated 25 9bre 1734 with a seal of the city of Rouen. Back to the Daphis and Chloe a few of the plates bear a stylized device of what appears to be "LG" and above the date of 1934. unknown
