79583 p.l. iv 39 pp. 18mo 142 x 96 mm. cont. brown sheep-backed boards extremities a trifle worn uncut. London: Ballintine & Byworth 1811.<br/> <br/> One of 100 copies privately printed; this is a bibliophilic re-publication of Fénelon’s elegant dialogues on the importance of a ruler engaging with and actively promoting the fine arts. Initially meant for private distribution only this edition was printed in three issues: 50 copies in 18mo 40 on grand papier and 10 on colored paper.<br/> <br/> Fénelon 1651-1715 archbishop of Cambrai and an esteemed writer and theologian originally composed these two imagined dialogues at the end of the 17th century. He gave the manuscript to the painter Pierre Mignard 1612-95 but never published the work in his lifetime. These dialogues finally appeared in print for the first time as an appendix to Monville’s scarce La vie de Pierre Mignard… 1730.<br/> <br/> The first of Fénelon’s dialogues takes place between Poussin and the Greek painter Parrhasius. They discuss the former’s Funeral of Phocion Louvre. The second dialogue is between Poussin and da Vinci and touches upon Poussin’s Landscape with a Man Killed by a Snake National Gallery London.<br/> <br/> The present edition was undertaken by Samuel Weller Singer 1783-1858 a literary scholar and great bibliophile whose initials are found at the end of the Avertissement. He started working with his mother in the feather and flower business but his interest in literature led him to become a bookseller opening on St. James’s Street. He counted legendary collectors like Heber Grenville and Douce as his clients. This work which he also edited was his first privately circulated publication.<br/> <br/> In near fine condition. With a catalogue entry clipping pasted on the front endpaper. WorldCat records just one example in the United States at the Yale Center for British Art on grand papier. The Royal Academy’s copy is printed on pink paper. <br/> <br/> ⧠ODNB. unknown

Dialogue between A B and C on the nature of eloquence A having the role of Socrates and employing maieutics B and C responding to A's questions. The characters discuss a sermon they have just heard and from there define the qualities of true eloquence by drawing these from examples of the Ancients. Fénelon criticizes both Ancients and Moderns giving preference to the eloquence of Holy Scripture. Du Cerceau's essay attempts to characterize French poetry and what makes verse specific in relation to prose. Both works are supported by quite subtle and pertinent grammatical analyses adjectives figures genitive and ablative. Chez J. Frédéric Bernard hardcover

Francois de Salignac de la Mothe Fenelon 1651-1715 was a poet writer theologian and French Roman Catholic archbishop. Fenelon was ordained as a priest in 1675 and served as a missionary to the Huguenots during the reign of Louis XIV as the church wished to convert them from Protestantism. Originally published as Traité de l'education des Filles Fenelon's Instructions is considered a progressive work given its support and encouragement of female education; it has a particular emphasis on theological matters which Fenelon believed was necessary so that they might better understand and refute heresies. He served as a tutor to the Dauphin's eldest son the Duke of Burgundy and composed the works Fables and Dialogues des Morts for him. Fenelon's also wrote Les Aventures de Telemaque which upon its publication infuriated Louis XIV given the fact that it seemingly questioned the foundations of his regime. As a result the king did not revoke an earlier order against Fenelon that forbade him to leave his archdiocese a punishment for his previous Quietist views. Fenelon died in January of 1715.</p> Printed for James Reid,
