179289730Deux-Ponts: Société typographique 1792. Fine. Société typographique Deux-Ponts 1792 10 x 16.8 cm 8 volumes reliés New edition revised corrected and considerably enlarged.Contemporary bindings in half mottled fawn calf over corners smooth spines gilt with fillets morocco title and volume labels brown paper-covered boards sprinkled edges.Some minor rubbing to the spines a few corners slightly bumped.L'Esprit des lois occupies volumes I to IV; La Défense de l'Esprit des lois volume V with a general index; Lettres persanes volume VI; volume VII gathers the Considérations and related pieces; volume VIII contains the posthumous works.This collected edition of Montesquieu's works offers no particular bibliographical peculiarities in its contents but constitutes a very rare Zweibrücken printing bearing the false Saarbrücken imprint: Deux-Ponts was in fact an autonomous and conveniently located printing centre by virtue of its proximity for introducing into France titles that could not otherwise evade censorship.
