Le feuillet de table a été placé en toute fin d'ouvrage et non au début comme l'indique Tchemerzine. Dans cet ouvrage pionnier, Fénelon s'adresse aux mères et aux gouvernantes, proposant une réflexion profondément novatrice sur l’éducation des filles à une époque où celle-ci était souvent négligée. L'ouvrage oscille ainsi entre tradition et modernité : tout en maintenant des rôles genrés, Fénelon revendique pour les filles un accès à la lecture, à l’écriture, à la religion et à une certaine culture générale. Il s'oppose aux excès de la mondanité et à la frivolité, et prône une simplicité vertueuse, fondement d'un bonheur domestique et social. Dans le contexte du XVIIe siècle, De l'éducation des filles s’impose comme un texte à la fois conservateur et audacieux, qui pose les jalons d'une pédagogie féminine avant l'heure, et qui influencera durablement la pensée éducative, y compris au siècle des Lumières. Madame de Maintenon, fondatrice de l'école de Saint-Cyr, s'inspira des principes de Fénelon.Exemplaire de deuxième tirage de cette édition originale en assez bon état.

C’est une critique acerbe de la direction de l’éducation de Louis XIV par Mazarin. Claude Joly, chanoine de Notre-Dame de Paris, était l’oncle du mémorialiste Guy Joly. Aux yeux du Cardinal de Retz il était “l’un des plus déterminés fondeurs du cloître.” Ce livre fut condamné par sentance du prévôt de Paris, à être lacéré et brûlé, à cause de “plusieurs propositions fausses, scandaleuses, contraires à l’honneur du Saint-Siège, à l’autorité du roi, et au repos de l’état.” La sentance portait en outre qu’il serait informé contre l’auteur et l’imprimeur.Voir la longue notice dans Moreau.
