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

With multiple engraved plates and a foldable map of Telemachos's travels. Inscription on second front endleaf: ""H. W. Greven. 1840""As the appointed tutor of the Dauphin of France's eldest son Fénelon was charged with guiding the character formation of a future King of France. During this period Fénelon wrote several important works for the specific purpose of guiding his young charge such as the<i> Fables </i>and the <i>Dialogues des Morts</i>. His pedagogical concepts and literary works exerted a lasting influence on French culture.By far the most lasting of Fénelon's works was his <i>Les Aventures de Télémaque</i> a didactic novel telling the story of Ulysses' son Telemachos. Below the surface however it voices an attack on the divine right absolute monarchy the dominant ideology of Louis XIV's France. The work became an immediate best seller both in France and abroad. It was translated into many languages and inspired numerous imitations.Greek mythology - Telemachus - Telemachy - Pylos - Sparta - Ithaca - Odyssey - Ulysses - Penelope - Trojan War - Odysseus - Odyssee - droit divin - French - Louis XIV - antiquity - education - didactic literature - children's literature - Louis de France Modern linen hardcover 17 x 10.3 cm.

1804-20Wien Aloys Doll 1807. 8°. IV S. 6 Bll. 422 S. Mit 1 Titelportr. HLdr. d. Zt. m. goldgeprägt. Rückensch. Telemach berichtet aus dem Land Batika: Dort ist der Kapitalismus überwunden und es herrscht Gütergemeinschaft. Seine Bewohner leben in Freiheit und Frieden weil es dort keine unnützen Reichtümer und trügerischen Vergnügungen gibt.Auch Kriege sind überwunden und werden grundsätzlich in Frage gestellt: 'Ereilt nicht der Tod schon die Menschen früh genug Müssen sie sich noch einander gewaltsam töten' Die Menschen in Bátika lächeln wenn man mit ihnen von Königen erzählt die sich nicht wegen der Grenzen ihrer Länder einigen können. 'Fürchtet man etwa' fragen sie 'daß den Menschen die Erde fehlen wird' Anfang 1699 verlor Fénelon seinen Erzieherposten und als im April sein Télémaque zunächst anonym und ohne seine Zustimmung im Druck erschien wurde er vom Hof Ludwig des XVI. verbannt.
