1816FB988 /6B<p>French. Tan calf spine with green marbled boards. Black title plates with gilt lettering and emblems.</p><p><strong>A nice copy of a book which was well credited when published circa 1690 </strong> <strong>René-Aubert Vertot</strong> 25 November 1655 in Bennetot Normandy – 15 June 1735 in Paris was a French clergyman and historian. He was for some time a pupil of the Jesuit Fathers seminary at Rouen which he left at the end of two years to enter the Capuchin Order. His health was greatly impaired by his austerities there and his family alarmed obtained permission for him to join the Premonstratensian Canons. Afterwards he was appointed pastor to several small parishes in Normandy. In 1690 at the suggestion of Fontenelle and the Abbé de Saint-Pierre he wrote his <em>Histoire de la conjuration de Portugal</em>. The book was received with favour and in 1695 appeared the <em>Histoire des révolutions de Suède</em> History of the Swedish revolutions. In 1703 Vertot was made a member of the <em>Académie des inscriptions</em>. Besides contributions to the <em>Mémoires of the Académie</em> and other minor works he wrote the <em>Révolutions romains</em> 1719 and <em>Histoire des chevaliers hospitaller's de Saint-Jean de Jérusalem</em> History of the Knights Hospitallers also known as Histoire de Malte History of Malta. It is related in connection with the latter that in answer to an offer of additional data about the great siege by the Ottomans in 1565 he said "Mon siège est fait" "My siege is finished" a phrase construed by some of his critics as an expression of his disregard for historical accuracy. Another interpretation of the comment is that he simply wished to get rid of an intruder who was trying to force upon him documents whose authenticity was very doubtful.</p> Pierre Didot L'aine. hardcover

1722025901London: for W. Taylor 1722. First Edition. Octavo. Volume I: 356 pages Volume 2: 243 pages. The rare study by the abbe De Vertot who challenged the ancient Breton legends which he said were based on later historians. The ancient legends of Merlin King Arthur and the Knights of the Roundtable are all challenged. Modern French historians from Michelet Thierry and Mignet have challened but never quite gotten beyond his insights into ancient Gaul and its history. These volumes printed in a small print run became scarce as early as 1816 when two rare booksellers noted they now had copies in their catalog. The 1910 Green auction had them. One of the most scarce of the early 18th century histories of Brittany. OCLC notes it was translated from the French but printed at Paris and in the same year distributed by W. Taylor a London publisher with a preface by John Henley to Sir Peter King the Chief Justice explaining the reason for this unique and to many a troubling book. Bound in full calf handsomely rebacked to style olive green leather label gilt corners worn through very early small bookplate without name. Very nice wide margined copy. for W. Taylor unknown books
