An allegorical frontispiece unsigned quite finely engraved. Bound in full contemporary soft vellum. Smooth spine with illegible and faded penned title. Small brown stain on upper board. Frontispiece faded in margin. A good fresh copy. The author's most famous work whose classical prosody is still acclaimed today. Although not a member of any school and especially not that of Malherbe and his disciples Saint-Amant's style and manner are classical recounting the story of Moses in the epic genre and in continuous verse. This highly readable hyperbolic poetry has clear echoes of Victor Hugo. Preface by the author. Chez Antoine de Sommaville hardcover
