Mémoires du Chevalier de Grammont. 1861 + voyage de Chapelle & Bachaumont
précédées d'une notice sur sa vie et les ouvrages d'Hamilton par M.Augier + table des noms propres, choix d’épîtres en vers et de la correspondance "Les Mémoires du Chevalier de Grammont" est un célèbre ouvrage littéraire écrit par Antoine Hamilton, un écrivain français du 17e siècle. Le livre a été publié pour la première fois en 1713, après la mort de l'auteur. Cet ouvrage est une œuvre de fiction basée sur des personnages et des événements réels de l'époque du roi Charles II d'Angleterre. Le "Chevalier de Grammont" était en réalité un personnage historique, Philibert, comte de Gramont, un courtisan français réputé pour ses aventures et sa vie amoureuse tumultueuse à la cour de Charles II. Les Mémoires du Chevalier de Grammont sont écrits sous la forme d'un récit autobiographique fictif, où le chevalier relate ses expériences et ses rencontres avec diverses personnalités de l'époque, tout en offrant un regard plein d'anecdotes et d'humour sur la vie à la cour et les intrigues amoureuses. Le livre est apprécié pour son style enjoué, sa vivacité et son portrait coloré de la société aristocratique de l'époque. Il offre également un aperçu précieux de l'histoire et de la culture du 17e siècle en France et en Angleterre. Les Mémoires du Chevalier de Grammont ont été traduits dans de nombreuses langues et restent encore aujourd'hui une lecture appréciée des amateurs de littérature classique et d'histoire suivi de VOYAGE DE CHAPELLE ET DE BACHAUMONT précédé d'une notice, etc.. fort vol relié demi cuir, in8, 190x140, bon état int. 452pp + table Paris. F.Didot 1861 ref/c85
