[Nicolas CHORIER]. New translation of the... - Lot 271 - Marie-Saint Germain
[Nicolas CHORIER]. New translation of the Mursius, known under the name of Aloïsia or of the academy of the ladies, revised, corrected & increased by almost half, by the restitution of all that had been cut in all the editions which appeared until now; & as delicately rendered as it had been badly in all the preceding ones: purged of the obscene terms with which they swarmed, without however having enervated in nothing the force of the thoughts. The whole is decorated with a quantity of pretty figures in intaglio on new designs. Volume one only. In Cythère, in the printing house of the Volupté, M.DCC.LXXIV [1774]. In-8 of xii, 250 pages, green half-percaline à la Bradel, with corners. Modest binding. Illustrated with 8 engravings, one of which is a frontispiece.
