Voltaire wrote a poem that satirized the life of Joan of Arc – a decision that became wildly controversial. In fact the sexist content and perverse eroticism found in "<em>La Pucelle d'OrleÌans</em>" or '<em>Maid of Orleans'</em> caused it to be outlawed banned and burned throughout Europe for more than 100 years! This suppression made it one of the most restricted books of the 18th and 19th-century.</p><p>This 1762 Geneva edition of '<em>La Pucelle d'Orleans'</em> features 20 impressive engravings.</p><p>Item number: #26380</p><p>Price: $750</p><p>VOLTAIRE</p><p><strong><em>La Pucelle d'OrleÌans poëme diviseÌ en vingt chants avec des notes nouvelle eÌdition.</em></strong></p><p>AÌ€ GeneÌve Cramer : 1762.</p><p><u>Details</u>: </p><p><!-- if !supportLists-->· <!--endif-->Collation: Complete with all pages</p><p><!-- if !supportLists-->o <!--endif-->2 VIII 358 i.e. 354</p><p><!-- if !supportLists-->o <!--endif--><strong>20 engraved plates</strong></p><p><!-- if !supportLists-->· <!--endif-->Language: French </p><p><!-- if !supportLists-->· <!--endif-->Binding: Leather; tight and secure</p><p><!-- if !supportLists-->· <!--endif-->Size: ~8in X 5in 20cm x 12.5cm</p><p>Our Guarantee:</p><p>Very Fast.
