The Girl With the Golden Eyes
New York: Williams Belasco and Meyers 1930. Reprint. Large octavo 24.5cm; black cloth boards stamped in gilt beveled edges; 154pp frontis.5 plates. Gilt dulled on spine; extremities rubbed thin spots along spine and leading corners; mild soiling and wear. Top edge stained black fore edge dackled; some interior toning and handling wear else Very Good overall.<br/><br/>This 1833 novella and part of his "History of the Thirteen" trilogy may not be regarded as Balzac's best work but it is perhaps one of his most scandalous. It involves a wealthy wastrel getting himself involved with a young lady who seems too good to be true—just the thing to turn a young man's fancy to murder attempted. The murder actual happens shortly afterwards but not before a shocking revelation. Might qualify as erotica if you are turned on by overlong lectures on Parisian misery. This 1930 reprint also contains a smattering of spicy for 1930 b/w plate illustrations. Williams, Belasco and Meyers unknown books

BALZAC Jean Louis Guez De 1595 1654
Aristippe Ou De La Cour
Paris: Augustin Courb� 1658. 1658. 4to. pp. 4 p.l. 244 18table 1privilege. engraved frontis. by Huret. engraved printer�s device on title. woodcut headpieces & initials. contemporary calf worn but sound short splits in joints light dampstaining to lower margin � heavier in first 2 quires some light foxing & browning. First Edition. Balzac was one of the writers who contributed the most to the perfection of the French language at the beginning of the seventeenth century and introduced a masterly clearness refined elegance and precision based on classical models into French prose style. He is thus credited with having executed in French prose a reform parallel to Malherbe�s in verse. He enjoyed the patronage of the Cardinal de Valette who brought him to Italy and made him his agent in Rome and upon his return to France secured that of the Archbishop of Lu�on and Cardinal Richelieu. Esteemed the leading prosaist of his time he was unanimously elected to the Acad�mie Fran�aise in 1634. The present treatise on the duties of sovereigns is dedicated to Christina of Sweden who was herself an admirer of Balzac. "Balzac "contributed greatly to the creation of the paradoxically formal colloquial style which still holds sway in French literary and academic circles�he wished above all to impose order regularity and gravity in prose�". New Oxford Companion to French Literature Brunet I 632-33. Cioranescu 9682. Tchemerzine I 374. 1st Edition. Paris: Augustin Courb�, 1658. unknown
