Blackmer 766. Weber 364. Brunet Table 22855. Contemporary full brown sheep binding spine with four raised bands decorated with compartments tooled in gilt now very rubbed restorations to the spine and covers. First historiographer of the Académie royale de peinture et de sculpture to which he was admitted in 1682 Guillet de Saint-George Thiers circa 1625 - Paris 1705 became known through several writings the principal ones relating to Greece and the Ottoman Empire. Concerning the present work: ""Il prétendit qu'il avait tiré ses documents des Mémoires de son frère Guillet de La Guilletière qu'il disait avoir été prisonnier quatre ans à Tunis et visité l'Italie septentrionale la Hongrie la Grèce la Turquie et une partie de l'Asie Mineure. Ce livre eut un grand succès ; mais la fraude fut découverte : le prétendu voyageur n'était jamais sorti de son cabinet ce qui n'empêcha pas Guillet de publier l'année suivante Lacédémone ancienne et nouvelle qui eut autant de vogue que le précédent mais provoqua une controverse avec Jacob Spon"" Hoefer XXII 727-728.

105975Paris Michallet 1675. . Second edition 12mo engraved folding map short tear and engraved folding plate small marginal stain to pages 10 & 11 not affecting text occasional light browning contemporary calf slightly rubbed head of spine worn a very good copy.<br /> travel2023 The material of the work comes from Giraud the French Consul in Athens and from the Capuchin monks settled there judiciously mixed with scholarly accounts by Meurs and others. The work was highly regarded for many years although Spon had made it quite clear that neither Guillet nor his brother as he had claimed had been to the city. In fact even Laborde remarks that Guillet had an 'intelligence remarquable des choses de l'antiquite.' His account did contain information on the contemporary state of the city and he very much emphasised the need to compare the ancient and modern cultures Blackmer.<br /> Blackmer 766.
