By Marin Le Roy de Gomberville Author Bio: Marin le Roy sieur de Gomberville 16001674 was a French novelist moralist and man of letters. His La Doctrine des Moeurs first appeared in seventeenth-century France and became one of the best-known emblematic moral works of its kind admired for the union of philosophical instruction and richly engraved illustration. Illustrated By: Pierre Daret Illustrator Bio: Pierre Daret was a French engraver and portrait painter whose work is closely associated with important seventeenth-century illustrated books. His plates for Gombervilles moral emblem text are central to the books enduring appeal. Synopsis: Work / historical context: Gombervilles Doctrine of Morality belongs to the great tradition of the emblem book in which moral and philosophical teaching is conveyed through images as much as through text. Drawing on Stoic thought and courtly didactic literature it presents human conduct vice virtue prudence ambition and self-command through a long sequence of engraved moral exempla. The 1721 English edition is an especially handsome survival of that tradition: a large folio translation by T. M. Gibbs illustrated after Pierre Daret and designed to impress as much visually as intellectually.
