This is the first French national bibliography a monumental work of fundamental importance for the history of French literature and scholarship. It has remained an indispensable reference and source book to this day as attested by Brunet Petzholdt and Besterman.<br/> <br/> The roughly 3000 authors are arranged alphabetically by their given names and La Croix du Maine gives succinct bio-bibliographical information for each. Our edition contains a remarkable proposal not reprinted in the 18th-century edition for the formation of a French national royal library housed in about 100 “noble†bookcases of which a most attractive illustration is printed on p. 511. This woodcut appears to be the first illustration of library furniture in a printed book. La Croix du Maine also urges the arrangement of the books by a system that is quite close to a decimal classification.<br/> <br/> La Croix du Maine 1552-92 began this bibliography at the age of 17 and in the process accumulated a large library. A Protestant sympathizer he was assassinated at 40 and was therefore unable to issue further volumes as he had planned.<br/> <br/> A fine copy. This copy appeared in the auction lot 2977 of the library of the duc d’Aumont which was sold in January 1783 in Paris by De Bure.<br/> <br/> ⧠Besterman The Beginnings of Systematic Bibliography pp. 24-25.
