Le jugement « condamne ladite Charlotte Villecourt à être brûlée vive sur un Bucher, qui sera pour cet effet dressé en la plage de Greve par l'Exécuteur de la Haute Justice, son corps réduit en cendres & les cendres jetées au vent, ladite Charlotte préalablement appliquée à la question ordinaire & extraordinaire pour avoir par sa Bouche la vérité d'aucuns faits résultant du Proces & les noms de ses complices ». Dans « L'oeil du Maître : maîtres et serviteurs de l'époque classique au romantisme », Claude Petitfrère rappelle l'extrème sévérité des jugements rendus contre les domestiques et cite, à l'appui de ce constat, le cas de Charlotte Villecourt, condamnée à mort pour un faux témoignage.
Les deux condamnations sont des appels. Un premier procès en janvier 1764 avait condamné les deux accusés à être pendus. A la suite de l'Arrêt est reproduit l'Edit de 1682 sur les poisons qui sert de base à la législation actuelle sur la détention et la vente des substances toxiques.

New English Paperback. Pbo. Demy 8vo. (21 x 15 cm). In English and Turkish. 85 p., color and b/w plts. Çivi yazili metinler ve arkeolojik kaynaklar isiginda Asur Imparatorluk dönemi kraliçeleri.= Assyrian queens of the Imperial period in the light of the cuneiform texts and archaeological sources. The period between ca. 934-609 BCE is called the Neo-Assyrian or the Assyrian Imperial Period. The kings of Assyria who lived during this period are very well known, but the queens are less so. On these pages is information on the Assyrian queens' positions, titles and activities during the Neo-Assyrian Period. Our knowledge of these queens comes from textual as well as archaeological sources. During the 1988-1989 excavation season at Nimrud the queens' tombs were found at the Northwest Palace. These tombs included jewellery and objects belonging to three Assyrian queens, although ten Assyrian queens are known from this period. It is known that the Assyrian queens lived in the "harem" at the palace. They played an active role in the social, economic, religious and political life of Assyria. Some of them were very wealthy and had their own army under their command. They supported their husbands and sons as wife or mother. According to the sources, most of the Assyrian queens were not natives of Assyria. They came to the Assyrian palace from a foreign country via marriage. They had the title "woman of the palace" (in Sumerian, MI2.E2.GAL, and in Akkadian, segallu). The figure of the scorpion which appears on texts, seals and the other archaeological artefacts was identified with the queenship.

Original full cloth binding, worn, stained and spotted. Hardbound. Early American edition of a classic on life in the South Pacific. Constance Frederica 'Eka' Gordon-Cumming (1837-1924) was a travel writer and painter. She was born in Scotland, the 12th child of a wealthy family. She taught herself how to paint, and had help from artists visiting her home, including one of Queen Victoria's favorite painters, Sir Edwin Landseer. After spending a year in India in 1867, she became interested in travel. Gordon-Cumming was a prolific travel writer and landscape painter who traveled the world, mostly in Asia and the Pacific. She painted over a thousand watercolors. Miss Gordon-Cumming received much criticism from male writers of the era, perhaps because she did not fit in the traditional Victorian role of women, as she often traveled alone and unaided. . **PRICE JUST REDUCED!
