Folio 37 x 23 cm. bestossen berieben Bezug mit Fehlstellen Erster Titel und letztes Blatt eingerissen Titel mit Ausrissen ohne Textverlust innen nur wenig gebräunt resp. braunfleckig. Maximilian von Béthune Herzog von Sully Baron dann Marquis von Rosny geb. 13. Dezember 1560 in Rosny bei Mantes-la-Jolie Yvelines; gest. 21. Dezember 1641 in Villebon Eure-et-Loir 20 km westlich von Chartres war ein hochrangiger französischer Artillerieoffizier Großmeister der Artillerie von Frankreich Minister Staatsmann Marschall von Frankreich und Freund Heinrichs IV. Sein vollständiger Name und Titel lautete: Maximilien Ier de Béthune Duc de Sully Baron de Rosny Pair de France Prince Souverain d'Henrichemont et de Boisbelle Marquis de Nogent-le-Rotrou Comte de Muret et de Villebon Vicomte de Meaux. Sully wurde in der reformierten Kirche erzogen und zugleich mit Heinrich von Navarra unterrichtet. Er nahm mit Auszeichnung an den Feldzügen des jungen Königs von Navarra teil und kämpfte bei Coutras 1587 und bei Ivry 1590 mit. Ein strenger Calvinist stolz und schroff trat er auch seinem königlichen Freund besonders seiner Verschwendung und Ausschweifung wiederholt mit Energie entgegen; doch vereinte beide bald wieder die gemeinsame Liebe zum Vaterland. Deswegen riet er auch 1593 Heinrich zur Annahme des Katholizismus um den Bürgerkrieg zu beendigen. 1597 an die Spitze der Finanzen gestellt Conseiller aux Finances tilgte er eine Staatsschuld von 200 Millionen Livres erwarb den größten Teil der verschleuderten Domänen zurück hob eine Menge überflüssiger Ämter auf ordnete und vereinfachte das Steuerwesen baute Straßen führte die Seidenkultur und andere Erwerbszweige ein und begünstigte den Ackerbau; diesen und die Weidewirtschaft mfrz. pastourage frz. pâtourage erklärte er wiederholt als die Brüste von denen Frankreich ernährt werde «Labourage et pasturage sont les deux mamelles dont la France est alimentée». Seit 1599 auch als erster Großmeister der Artillerie von Frankreich und Oberaufseher über alle Befestigungen des Landes stellte er in kurzem die öffentliche Ruhe wieder her namentlich durch Vernichtung vieler Räuberbanden. Auf Heinrichs Zug nach Savoyen 1600 eroberte Sully die für unüberwindlich gehaltenen Festungen Montmelian und Bourg. Nach dem Frieden übernahm er unter dem Titel eines erblichen Kapitäns der Häfen Flüsse und Kanäle das Département der öffentlichen Bauten hob Zölle auf erklärte den Getreidehandel für frei legte Kanäle an und leistete in dieser Stellung viel für die Verbesserung der Kommunikationsmittel des Landes. Zugleich leitete er auch die auswärtigen Verhandlungen. 1604 wurde er zum Gouverneur von Poitou und 1606 für sein Schloss Sully an der Loire nebst den dazugehörigen Ländereien zum erblichen Herzog ernannt. Dabei erwarb er für sich selbst ein bedeutendes Vermögen. Nach der Ermordung Heinrichs IV. 14. Mai 1610 wurde er seiner Stellung am Hof entbunden und von diesem auf sein Schloss verwiesen; doch bediente sich auch Ludwig XIII. öfters seines Rats und ernannte ihn 1634 zum Marschall von Frankreich. Sein gleichnamiger Sohn übernahm das Amt des Großmeister der Artillerie von Frankreich starb aber bereits 1634 mit 46 Jahren. Maximilien de Béthune Herzog von Sully starb am 21. Dezember 1641 im Alter von 81 Jahren. Maximilien de Rosny eine durch den Herzog von Sully inspirierte literarische Figur verkörpert den beinahe idealen Politiker in Heinrich Manns Roman Die Vollendung des Königs Henri Quatre. wikipedia.

175644515London: Printed for A. Millar in the Strand; R. and J. Dodsley in Pall-Mall; and W. Shropshire in New-Bond-Street 1756. Fine. First edition in English extra-illustrated copy of this "instant classic" Carlile the autobiography of the minister and advisor to King Henry IV of France. Charlotte Lennox was born into a well-to-do Scottish family that fell upon hard times. Well educated and distinguished early for her poetic precocity - but left to fend for herself financially she turned to a career in writing. After publishing two novels THE LIFE OF HARRIOT STUART based heavily on her own experiences in the American colonies and voyage back to Britain; and THE FEMALE QUIXOTE for which she is best known today Lennox took up translation work in hopes of finding a more stable source of income. Among Lennox's most successful productions in her long publishing career this translation of the Duke of Sully's MEMOIRS also led to an offer of a royal pension for Lennox in gratitude for literary services performed. She turned it down in favor of her patron finding a government position for her husband instead. <br /> <br /> The Duke of Sully 1560-1641 was viewed by many in the Georgian period as an ideal Enlightenment-era statesman and his MEMOIRS has been read as a literary political treatise. It influence was broad including on the American Founding Fathers: it features in the 1783 list of books to be imported for the use of Congress compiled under the leadership of James Madison. <br /> <br /> This copy has been generously supplemented with nearly 200 engravings primarily of portraits and landscapes of the figures and places described. As a 17th-century text via an influential 18th-century translation in a characteristically deluxe 19th-century extra-illustrated binding it is a lovely hybrid artifact. Three quarto volumes 10'' x 7.75'' each. Nineteenth-century full maroon straight-grain morocco by Bayntun raised bands elaborately gilt-stamped spines large gilt cornerpieces and triple-gilt rules to boards. Gilt dentelles marbled endpapers all edges gilt. Extra illustrated with 193 additional plates: portraits landscapes dramatic scenes inter alia.

Stunning binding.Sully left a collection of memoirs Mémoires otherwise known as the Économies royales 1638 written in the second person very valuable for the history of the time and as an autobiography in spite of the fact that they contain many fictions such as a mission undertaken by Sully to Queen Elizabeth I of England in 1601.<strong>Maximilien de Béthune 1st Duke of Sully Marquis of Rosny and Nogent Count of Muret and Villebon Viscount of Meaux</strong> 13 December 1560 – 22 December 1641 was a nobleman soldier statesman and counselor of King Henry IV of France. Historians emphasize Sully's role in building a strong centralized administrative system in France using coercion and highly effective new administrative techniques. While not all of his policies were original he used them well to revitalize France after the European Religious Wars. Most however were repealed by later monarchs who preferred absolute power. Historians have also studied his Neostoicism and his ideas about virtue prudence and discipline. J Rivington unknown
