Voltaire Mary Julia Young Translator
VOLTAIRIANA. IN FOUR VOLUMES. SELECTED AND TRANSLATED FROM THE FRENCH
London: Printed by D. N. Shury for J. F. Hughes 1805. First Edition. Full Leather. Very Good binding. First Edition of Voltairiana selected and translated by Mary Julia Young one of Dale Spender's 'Mothers of the Novel.' A prolific author of fiction and poetry Young was a striking example of an independent professional female writer of the eighteenth and early nineteenth century. Writing "for a maintenance" as she euphemistically puts it Young encapsulates the financial hardship and open hostility that greeted female authors of the time especially those who were fully reliant on their literary output. Taken from a letter to the Royal Literary Fund 28 March 1808 by Ms. Young "melange which was thrown together at the express desire of my Publisher and I hope Voltaire has not suffer'd by my choice of selection and omissions." Complete in four volumes. Portrait frontispiece. Page of advertisements at the rear. Very scattered foxing. Wear to the joints extremities and surface of the spines. Full mottled calf with red leather labels and gilt decorations. Four vols. Very Good. Dale Spender Mothers of the Novel p. 137.

Le Calendrier de Paphos Dédié aux jolies Femmes. Recueil de Pièces en vers les plus ingénieuses et les plus galantes faites par les Dames ou en leur honneur. Avec le nom des auteurs
Paris: chez Desnos 1778. 12mo 124 x 68 mm. 4 82 1 pp. Two parts continuously paginated. Engraved frontispiece engraved title letterpress title removed six engraved plates before lettering all with tissue guards; one woodcut vignette of a rose. Small repair to outer blank corner of frontispiece else a fine untrimmed copy. 19th-century green straight-grained morocco gilt sides with triple filt fillets framing a wavy double border with roses spine gilt with roses in compartments turn-ins gilt gilt edges by Dupré stamp-signed on front turn-in; later two-part blue morocco slipcase by Riviere slightly scuffed. Provenance: Sir David Lionel Salomons Broomhill Tunbridge Wells armorial bookplate; Carlo de Poortere bookplate.<br/><br/>Only Edition a special copy with the engravings avant la lettre of a literary almanac in two parts unusually dividing the contributors by sex with part 1 pp. 7-34 containing only poems by women and part 2 only by men. A table at the end of each part lists the authors. In the ladies' section are verses by the mother and daughter Mme and Mademoiselle Deshoulières ou Des Houlières Mlle de Scudery Mme de La Suze Mme de Liancourt and other seventeenth-century i.e. "classical" writers. The male contributors include a few more modern authors notably Voltaire whose 13 occasional verses most dedicated to individual women represent a lighter side of his oeuvre.<br/><br/>The unsigned engravings of scenes set in elegant interiors or pastoral settings show a wedding banquet; a couple engaged in a playful chase with Cupid seizing the woman's dress; Reason Athena with a lion being seduced by folly a female fool complete with rattle bells and crazy hat; a female Narcissus admiring herself in a pond; a courting scene with musical instruments; and a lady daydreaming alone in her bedchamber. Grand-Carteret tells us that these plates along with a seventh plate were also used in a different Desnos almanac Les Caprices de l'Amour et de Baccus printed there with expressive captions. The frontispiece shows the bust of a smiling Voltaire being crowned with stars by one of two attendant muses. Grand-Carteret inattentively suggested that the bust might portray Alexis Piron another contributor not noticing the lightly etched titles of two books held by the recumbent muse namely Charles XII and La Henriade both of course by Voltaire and referring to the poem on p. 41 "A Madame la Marquise de Boufflers en lui envoyant la Henriade & Charles XII."<br/><br/>The rose decor of the binding echoes the woodcut vignette of a rose printed at the end of the publisher's anonymous dedication to all ladies Mesdames. The copy was deliberately bound without the letterpress title; it also does not contain the always optional Tables of losses and wins at the gaming table announced in the subtitle. Copies apparently differed and the almanac may have been reissued periodically. Some copies include a section of music according to Grand-Carteret who dates the almanac to 1789 whereas Cohen-de Ricci dated it to 1781. Both their copies seem to have also lacked a letterpress title: OCLC locates only the BnF copy with the letterpress title dated 1778 it is digitized on Gallica but without the plates.<br/><br/>Bengesco Voltaire Bibliographie de ses Oeuvres IV: 2238; Cohen-de Ricci 37-38 7 or 8 plates; Grand-Carteret 611 7 plates. chez Desnos unknown books
