In-8, broché, sous couverture papier moderne, (2), 92 p. Rare édition originale et unique de cet essai attribué à Pierre-Hyacinthe Duvigneau (1752-1794) par Hervé Leuwers ('L'invention du barreau français, 1660-1830', Paris, EHESS, 2006, p. 257 note 33). Avocat puis procureur au parlement, il fut guillotiné en 1794. Il est également l'auteur de comédies et de cantates, rédacteur des "Annales de la municipalité de Bordeaux et du département de la Gironde" (1790-1791). "Le 8 février, il paraît [cette] brochure où le patriotisme triomphe de tous les sophismes dont les royalistes ont voulu faire usage pour le combattre. L'auteur anonyme défend vigoureusement le Parlement de toutes les inculpations vagues dont on l'a chargé, et finit par désirer que l'on substitue les États provinciaux au régime politique imaginé par la Cour. Il y a de la chaleur, de la raison et de l'ordre dans cet écrit" (Pierre Bernadau, 'Les débuts de la révolution à Bordeaux', p. 10).

ATTENZIONE !!: Con il termine estratto (o stralcio) intendiamo riferirci ad un fascicolo contenente un articolo di rivista, sia che esso sia stato stampato a parte utilizzando la stessa composizione sia che provenga direttamente da una rivista. Le pagine sono indicate come "da/a", ad esempio: 229/231 significa che il testo è composto da tre pagine. Quando la rivista di provenienza non viene indicata é perchè ci è sconosciuta. - !! ATTENTION !!: : NOT A BOOK : “estratto” or “stralcio” means simply a few pages, original nonetheless, printed in a magazine. Pages are indicated as in "from” “to", for example: 229/231 means the text comprises three pages (229, 230 and 231). If the magazine that contained the pages is not mentioned, it is because it is unknown to us.
