Essais. Édition seconde revue & augmentée.

15824822Bordeaux: Simon Millanges 1582. Hardcover. Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. 4 ff 806 pp 1 ff. Bound in luxurious 19th century red morocco by Chambolle-Duru. Very good. Rare second edition carefully corrected by Montaigne himself of his chef d'oeuvre and a masterpiece of world literature. Montaigne continuously corrected his Essais throughout his lifetime and modern commentators have often been able to trace the development of his thought through these changes in addition to the reflections they provide of Montaigne's life experiences. The first of these corrected editions is the present work published shortly after Montaigne's return from a voyage to Italy. The work is of particular American interest for one of the earliest and most astute accounts of Brazilian Indians published in the 16th century "Des Cannibales" pp. 174-191 and certainly the most widely read account of Brazilian Indians known to Renaissance readers. More meticulously and beautifully printed than the first edition the present work incorporates some 34 additions and 16 new citations relative to the 1580 text. Many of the new citations reference Italian sources - an indication of the profound effect Montaigne's travels in Italy 1580-1 had on the author. Other corrections - in text style orthography punctuation and the addition or suppression of words - have also been recorded by Marcel Françon. The edition of 1582 "permits first of all the correction of a somewhat corrupted text. but also represents a commercial endeavour by Millanges who had a great interest in associating himself with a new political power ie Montaigne who had been elected Mayor of Bordeaux in 1581." Desan In his thought-provoking discussion of civilized behaviour famously titled 'Des Cannibales' Montaigne draws on printed sources-Léry Thevet and Osorio-as well as a personal encounter with ethnic Brazilians. Montaigne had been in Rouen in 1562 when a group of Indians were presented to Charles IX. In "Des Cannibales" he reports with remarkable accuracy on Brazilian morals music housing and other ethnographic details. Following a detailed description of cannibalism the essayist draws a deft parallel with the torture methods employed by the Inquisition. Like the first edition the present work contains the first two books of the Essais. A third would appear only in 1588. OCLC shows Chicago Virginia the NYPL Yale Princeton and Harvard.

Essayes written in French by Michael Lord of Montaigne Knight of the Order of S. Michael gentleman of the French Kings chamber: Done into English according to the last French edition by John Florio

16135000740London: Melch. Bradwood for Edward Blount and William Barret 1613. Edges of the title-page ragged and 1/4 inch of lower margin made good with blank paper the following three leaves with some marginal wear well clear of text; portrait leaf normally at end of prelims placed here as frontispiece and slightly worn at outer margin; spine of the binding rubbed but good. Folio xii 630 pp. A-3I6 3K3 missing final blank leaf 3K4; leaf A6 pp.7/8 with portrait on verso bound as frontispiece; three parts published as one volume individual title-pages with woodcut decorations to second and third parts; old half calf and marbled boards. Second edition in English of Montaigne's masterpiece in the important translation by John Florio one of the great prose works of the Elizabethan period used by Shakespeare as a source for several late works most importantly The Tempest. First published in French in 1580 Montaigne's Essays first appeared in English in Florio's translation in 1603. William Hole's portrait bound as frontispiece here celebrates the translator rather than the author of the Essays showing Florio as a handsome neatly bearded courtier. "Montaigne devised the essay form in which to express his personal convictions and private meditations a form in which he can hardly be said to have been anticipated. He finds a place in the present canon however chiefly for his consummate representation of the enlightened skepticism of the 16th century to which Bacon Descartes and Newton were to provide the answers in the next" Printing and the Mind of Man. The second edition contains the preliminary sonnet "Concerning the honor of bookes" which was at one time attributed to Shakespeare though is more likely to have been by Samuel Daniel who signs the poem before it in honour of Florio "Sam. Daniel". Oddly early ink annotations on this page claim "There are Six manuscripts and two Old Copys have it Sappy instead of Sam; which makes a great alteration in the Text" and "Sappy Daniel One of the greatest Poets in those Days: he writes in the Pindarick Stile: he read Homer in 5 days & translated Horace into Verse in 15 and became perfect Master of all ye Greek & Latin Classicks in 25. A Beautiful Progress". . Provenance: Early signatures on the title-page of Betty Gregson Yorkshire -1763 married Henry Chaytor in 1760 and Matthew Chaytor; later there seems to have been a family connection Sir Henry Heathcote Admiral 1777-1851 with his armorial bookplate as baronet.
