Complete. <p><br /> First edition of Du Vignau’s important work dealing with the decline of the Ottoman Empire.<br /> <p><br /> <p><br /> L'état présent de la puissance Ottomane was written after the unsuccessful siege of Vienna by the Ottomans in 1683 and the following withdrawal. It deals with the possible reasons led to the decline of the Ottoman Empire and provides an overview of the period Ottoman power. The book gained interest throughout Europe and in the subsequent year a second edition was printed in the Hague and an English translation was also published.<br /> <p><br /> <p><br /> A year after the present work Du Vignau published another book Le Sécretaire turc. “In both works he described himself as a former secretary at the French embassy in Istanbul the ‘secrétaire-interprète’ to the King’s fleet in the Mediterranean and even a godson to Louis XVI. None of these claims appear to be true.†Ghobrial 2013 Sieur des Joanots Du Vignau was a pseudonym invented by Édouard de La Croix who was indeed a secretary in the French embassy in Istanbul between 1670 and 1680 and again between 1685–1686. La Croix published his Mémoires in 1684 and four other books between 1686 and his death in 1704 among them Le Sécretaire turc and the present book. “The reason for his having used a pseudonym remains unclear. Interestingly the two titles published under the name Du Vignau … are the only books written by La Croix that were not dedicated to Louis XVI but instead to the Grand Duke of Tuscany an indication perhaps of his attempts to cultivate a new patron in the person of Cosimo III de’ Medici.†Ghobrial 2013<br /> <p><br /> <p><br /> Scarce we could trace only 3 copies in institutional holdings BL; BnF; Bibliothèque municipale de Lyon.<br /> <p><br /> <p><br /> Provenance: Bookplate: "De la bibliothèque du Comte Nicolas d’Eszterhazyâ€; ownership inscription in ink: “Clementsâ€.<br /> <p><br /> <p><br /> Bibl.: Ghobrial J-P.: The Whispers of Cities: Information Flows in Istanbul London and Paris in the Age of William Trumball.

Saint-Vallier was Laval's successor as Bishop of Quebec 1688-1727. The present work written in the form of a letter to an anonymous friend describes his trip to New France between May 1685 and January 1687 to survey the bishopric prior to his consecration. On the voyage out he sailed on board the same vessel as the Marquis de Denonville the newly appointed Governor of New France. Saint-Vallier first visited Quebec then all of the parishes along the St. Lawrence finally arriving at Montreal. Travelling along the inland waterways he made his way with a small escort to Acadia returning to Quebec in the fall of 1686. His informal account provides descriptive details respecting the native tribes and their relations with the white settlers specific reports on missionary activities and sketchy information regarding troubles with the Iroquois. "This is one of the rarest accounts of the missions published irregularly after the discontinuance of the annual Jesuit Relations with the one for 1671-72.It appeared in one edition only but with different title-pages.".

176680007à Paris: Par la Compagnie de libraires 1766. Fine. Par la Compagnie de libraires à Paris 1766 9.50 x 17 cm 5 volumes reliés New edition. Contemporary full marbled calf binding. Smooth spine decorated. Red morocco title-labels garnet morocco volume labels. Headcaps of volumes I II and V partly worn. Lacking at tail of volume I. 4 corners slightly bumped throughout the set. Speckled edges. One wormhole to lower joint at head of volume III. Despite minor defects a handsome copy. The work presents itself as the translation by orientalist Pétis de la Croix of a manuscript given to him in friendship by ""Dervis Moclès"" the Faithful Dervish p. 49 who had himself translated and adapted Persian tales from Indian stories moreover sufficiently prized to be also known in a Turkish version under the title of al-Farage bada al-schidda1 p. 49. Thus anchored in Islamic literary tradition to which Pétis de la Croix had actual access through his training this corpus was then compared to the Arabian Nights and deliberately followed in its wake. A particular literary creation of the 18th century these tales borrowed from real Oriental sources while being at the same time pure creations but following the model of imitation and adaptation the author even going so far as to reverse the narrative mode of the Arabian Nights: a prince prejudiced against women; and in the Thousand and One Days it is a princess prejudiced against men. Some critics think that these tales would have been originally conceived to provide a sequel for publisher Barbin to the Arabian Nights of which 2 tales are found at the end of volume VIII.
