1766075ADD63de l'Impimerie de Le Breton Premier Imprimeur ordinaire du Roi Chez Merlin A Paris . 1766 Two volumes. I. 1 LXXIX 304. II. 1 415 1Errata 4Approbation Eleven 11 engraved plates. French text. 8vo. 200 mm. Edges decorated red. Some age stain and foxing. Original decoratively mottled full leather bindings. Spines worn but some gilt remains. Marcus Annaeus Lucanus 39-65 CE was an important Roman poet born in Cordoba. One of the outstanding figures of the Imperial Latin period his youth and speed of composition set him apart from others. The Pharsalia is an epic poem on the Roman Civil War. It is considered the greatest epic in Latin after the Aeneid. It depicts the Battle of Pharsalus 48 BC where Julius Caesar defeated Pompey. Lucan's poetic talent apparently aroused the jealously of the Emperor Nero. After the publication of Pharsalia the Emperor forbade him to write or even plead in the courts and then later compelled him to commit suicide for alleged treason. The engraved plates in this edition are mostly by the famous French engraver and book illustrator Hubert Francois Gravelot 1699-1733. The original art was by: Antoine-Jean Duclos; Emanuel Jean Nepomucene Ghendt; Noel Le Mire; Francois Denis Nee; Jean Francois Rousseau; and Jean-Baptiste Blaise Simonet.

17773400<p>A scarce edition of Marmontel's block-buster published in the same year as the first edition. MMF list no less than ELEVEN Paris editions of 1777 all printed by Lacombe with the present edition listed as the second with its imprint clearly claiming a Paris and Lacombe publication: 'A Paris Chez Lacombe Libraire rue de Tournon près le Luxembourg'. However ESTC includes this edition as a piracy 'probably printed in Dublin' with a false Paris address. This would account for the error on the title page where the masculine word for volume is made feminine: 'Tome Première / Tome Seconde' a mistake no French printer or compositor would make.</p><p>Critic novelist and playwright Marmontel began life as the son of a poor tailor before coming to Paris on the advice of Voltaire to pursue a career in literature. His <i>Contes moraux</i> 1755-1765 fictional tales praising philosophy and the practice of virtue were enormously popular in France and throughout Europe particularly in England where there were numerous translations. But it was his historical romance <i>Belisaire</i> with its plea for civil toleration of Protestants that brought him most lasting fame and became one of the most controversial novels of its time condemned both by the Sorbonne and the archbishop of Paris. <i>Les Incas ou la Déstruction de l'Empire du Perou</i> is Marmontel's answer to the censure he received for <i>Bélisaire</i>. In this novel he describes the cruelties in Spanish America and demonstrates that they are entirely the result of the religious intolerance of the invaders. <br /></p><p><i>Two volumes 8vo 175 x 110 mm pp. xxxii 253; iv 5-310 1 including half-titles and several contents leaves after the text in both volumes marginal wormhole through the endleaves and first few pages of Vol. I also with considerable staining in a couple of the preliminary leaves of Vol. I otherwise generally clean although clearly read some later pencil markings </i></p><i>in contemporary plain calf blind tooling to the covers along the spine flat spines ruled in gilt with red and olive green morocco labels lettered and numbered in gilt the corners a little bumped the library stamp of 'J.M.M-OConnor' on both half titles and the endleaves of Vol. I: generally an attractive set</i>.

Notes: Text in French<br>Jean François Marmontel was a French historian and writer. The author was elected to the Académie française in 1763.
