1791222111791. Charles Geneviève Louis Auguste André Timothée d'Éon de Beaumont known as the Chevalier d'Éon was an eighteenth century French diplomat soldier and intelligence agent whose public life became widely discussed because of their gender identity and political career. D'Éon served the French crown in military and diplomatic roles including assignments connected with the secret diplomatic network known as le Secret du Roi. During the later part of their life d'Éon lived publicly as a woman and in 1777 was formally permitted by King Louis XVI to adopt female dress and identity in French society. Materials associated with d'Éon circulated widely in Europe and became part of a sustained public fascination with the individual's career and gender identity during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries.<br /> <br /> Archive of three items relating to the Chevalier d'Éon. 1 Calling card signed "Mlle. D'Eon" written in ink on small ivory cardstock and using the feminine honorific consistent with d'Éon's later public identity. 2 Engraved portrait titled "The Chevalier D'Eon" clipped from an illustrated newspaper depicting d'Éon in later life presenting as female while wearing a ruffled cap and the insignia of the Order of Saint Louis the decoration awarded for military service. 3 Engraved view titled "The House of the Chevalier D'Eon at Tonnerre."

Thomas and published by Sewell showing the exterior of d'Éon's residence at Tonnerre in France during the period when d'Éon lived in England and remained a subject of public attention.<br /> <br /> The life of the Chevalier d'Éon became one of the most widely discussed examples of gender nonconformity in eighteenth century Europe.

Surviving ephemera such as signed cards portraits and engravings provide contemporary evidence of how d'Éon was represented and understood in European society.

1917230391917. Chevalier d'Eon Military Intelligence Barton George. The World's Greatest Military Spies and Secret Service Agents 1917 presents a historical survey of espionage figures whose activities shaped military intelligence traditions from the eighteenth century through the modern era. Among the figures highlighted are Chevalier d'Éon the French diplomat and intelligence agent whose life intersected with eighteenth-century European covert diplomacy and whose later public identity as a woman made the figure one of the most historically significant examples of gender nonconformity associated with espionage. Barton also recounts Lydia Darrah Darragh the Philadelphia Quaker who secretly relayed British military plans to American forces during the Revolutionary War after overhearing officers discussing an impending attack. By including both figures the book places women and gender-nonconforming intelligence actors within a broader narrative of military espionage that extends beyond conventional battlefield agents.<br /> <br /> Barton George. The World's Greatest Military Spies and Secret Service Agents. Boston: The Page Company 1917. First impression October 1917. The illustrated volume recounts notable espionage episodes drawn from European and American history.

The work is dedicated to William J. Flynn Chief of the United States Secret Service during World War I situating the publication within a period when intelligence institutions and counterespionage activities were expanding in response to global conflict.<br /> <br /> Issued during the year the United States entered World War I Barton's study appeared amid heightened public attention to espionage sabotage and intelligence operations. By connecting Revolutionary War informants such as Lydia Darrah with European intelligence figures like Chevalier d'Éon the book constructs a historical lineage for espionage that predates the professional intelligence services emerging in the twentieth century. The inclusion of these two figures also broadens the narrative of intelligence history to include participants whose activities unfolded outside traditional military command structures. Octavo. Illustrated with plates. Blue pictorial cloth stamped in gilt and black. Light edge wear and mild fading to spine with occasional interior toning. Overall very good condition. The inclusion of Chevalier d'Éon and Lydia Darragh expands the narrative of espionage to include women and gender-nonconforming figures whose intelligence work intersected with diplomatic and military conflict. unknown
1861222441861. Un Hermaphrodite by Louis Jourdan examines the life of the Chevalier d'Éon an eighteenth century French diplomat soldier and intelligence agent whose public identity challenged conventional understandings of gender in European society. The book recounts the career of Charles Geneviève Louis Auguste André Timothée d'Éon de Beaumont who served the French crown in diplomatic and military roles while later living publicly as a woman in London and Paris. During the eighteenth century d'Éon's gender identity became a subject of international curiosity and debate and their life intersected with the political networks of French diplomacy and espionage. Jourdan's biography situates d'Éon within the culture and politics of late ancien régime France while presenting the figure as both an accomplished state servant and an individual whose gender presentation defied prevailing social norms.<br /> <br /> Jourdan Louis. Un Hermaphrodite. Paris: E. Dentu 1861. Second edition. First published in 1836 the work provides a narrative account of d'Éon's diplomatic missions military service and later life in England and France. The author describes the Chevalier as "un savant distingué un militaire intrépide un diplomate d'une habileté consommée" characterizing the figure as a distinguished scholar courageous soldier and skilled diplomat. The text recounts d'Éon's service in the French dragoon regiments and involvement with the clandestine diplomatic network known as le Secret du Roi through which agents carried out sensitive political missions for the French monarchy in locations including Russia and England. Jourdan also presents d'Éon as an unusual personality within the social world of pre revolutionary France describing the individual as "un des éléments les plus pittoresques de cette société frivole que le coup de tonnerre de 1789 devait si brusquement réveiller."<br /> <br /> Nineteenth century interest in d'Éon's life reflected broader fascination with figures whose gender identity and public roles challenged established categories of male and female. The Chevalier's career in diplomacy and espionage combined with a later public identity as a woman produced one of the most widely discussed gender controversies of the eighteenth century and biographies such as Jourdan's helped preserve the historical record of that life for later readers. 304 pages.

Light rubbing to boards with clean interior pages; overall very good condition.

1854231041854. Cross Dressing Chevalier d'Eon Davidson G. H. The New Wonderful Magazine Vol. II includes a Victorian illustrated account of Chevalier d'Éon the eighteenth century French diplomat soldier and spy whose public life became a recurring point of reference in the history of gender nonconformity in Europe. Issued within a miscellany devoted to remarkable characters strange histories and marvel literature the volume shows how nineteenth century popular print converted d'Éon's earlier political and social notoriety into commercial reading matter with gender classification itself staged as visible spectacle. Its treatment of d'Éon belongs to a broader culture of illustrated biography in which bodily ambiguity celebrity and curiosity were circulated together for a mass audience.<br /> <br /> Davidson G. H. The New Wonderful Magazine: Consisting of a Carefully Selected Collection of Remarkable Trials Biographies of Wonderful or Extraordinary Characters Curious Histories and Adventures Phenomena in Nature the Wonders of Art. Vol. II. London: G. H. Davidson 1854. Illustrated volume of 756 pages in publisher's canvas binding measuring 9 x 6 x 3 inches. The book gathers short biographies curious histories and accounts of extraordinary subjects illustrated with steel plate portraits engraved scenes and woodcuts. Its image of Chevalier d'Éon presents the figure half in women's dress and half in men's dress using split costume as the central visual device and making dual gender presentation the basis of the composition. Elsewhere the volume follows the pictorial language of mid nineteenth century popular miscellanies pairing portraiture with dramatic narrative illustration across a broad range of biographical and anecdotal material.<br /> <br /> D'Éon's continued circulation in nineteenth century print reflects the persistence of an eighteenth century life that moved through diplomatic military and courtly worlds while becoming publicly associated with both male and female social roles at different stages. By 1777 Louis XVI had officially recognized d'Éon as female and later writers repeatedly returned to that history in discussions of gender variance notoriety and embodiment. In this 1854 volume the subject appears not as private biography alone but as illustrated public curiosity showing how Victorian print culture repackaged earlier lives that unsettled binary gender norms for popular consumption. Moderate wear and rubbing to binding with expected age toning; text and illustrations complete and legible. A well preserved Victorian printing that carries one of the nineteenth century's most recognizable popular images of Chevalier d'Éon. unknown
