The second edition of these letters. Frontispiece of Maintenon to volume I. Being volumes I II and III only of this four volume set. This work is essentially a critical edition of Madame de Maintenon's works. Over five thousand letters by the Marquise survived and these volumes cast a glimpse over a selection. Maintenon writes of many ethical issues especially on virtue and vice. Philosophy of education was another important subject she often wrote on. During her lifetime she founded the Maison royale de Saint-Louis a school for girls from poorer noble families. Despite never being considered Queen Consort of France she was incredibly influential in court and these letters are between several eminent people in seventeenth and eighteenth century France. Individuals written to in these letters include Madame de Dangeau Mme de Caylus Mme de Ventadour. L'Abbe Gobelin and many more. Most individuals within this correspondence have a brief biography to the start of their section. Lacking volume IV. A fascinating insight into the court of Louis XIV and of a prominent and active political figure. In full calf bindings with gilt stamping to the spine. Externally rubbed to the spines. Loss to head and tail of all spines worse to the tail of volume I. Both joints to volume I are cracked. Cracks to the front joints of volumes II and III. Hinges to all volumes are strained but firm.
