Overall a sturdy and serviceable copy. Duodecimo. iv 427 ; iv 457 1. In French and English translated by Des Maizeaux. FOR THE SON OF A KING<br /> <br /> Salignac de la Mothe-Fénelon was a French Catholic archbishop a man of tolerance living during a period of great strife between Protestants and Catholics. He was opposed by the church and state for his liberal views on education and mystical prayer. Nevertheless he was summoned to tutor the unruly grandson and heir of Louis XIV who he wrote Telemachus for in 1699. Originally anonymously published the story follows Telemachus's instruction as Odysseus' heir and rebuked Louis XIV's autocratic regime encouraging his heir to value qualities like brotherhood altruism and parliamentary systems.<br /> <br /> The Adventures of Telemachus saw roaring success in England throughout the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and was frequently given to young boys as part of their education ending up in the hands of thinkers like Rousseau and Montesquieu. This edition came as one of many bilingual issues released during this fervor including a discourse on epic poetry. <br /> <br /> This ornate copy is bound in beautiful tree calf and has marbled edges and endpapers.
