1769155832The Hague: Frederic Staatman 1769. First edition of the second French translation of Boswell's account of his travels to Corsica in 1765 in a contemporary binding. Issued within a year from the original English of 1768 it contributed to establishing Boswell's reputation and promoting the Corsican cause in France. It was Rousseau who urged Boswell to visit the relatively unknown Corsica then struggling for its independence from Genoa. Impressed by the qualities of its leader General Paoli Boswell campaigned in the British newspapers lobbied Pitt to intervene and personally sent thirty cannon to help. "With its reports of the gallant islanders and a Plutarchan depiction of Paoli paralleled with several classical heroes it was an immediate success. Though Boswell's ambition for British intervention was not to be fulfilled he probably influenced Britain's decision to send secret supplies of arms to the Corsicans" ODNB. This translation was made by Jean Paul Isaac Dubois then secretary to the Polish ambassador at the Hague. At the end a long note by Dubois praises Paoli's generosity and mercy. Another translation was published earlier the same year titled Etat de la Corse by Gabriel Seigneux de Correvon. Octavo in two parts 195 x 120 mm. With 1 engraved folding map of Corsica by A. I.
