Eustache LE NOBLE
Dialogues sur les affaires du temps ou les pasquinades
Leyde Leiden: Elzevier 1689. Fine. Elzevier Leyde Leiden 1689 14.80 x 9 cm relié First editions. Elzevirian editions with the Sphere device. Contemporary full calf binding spine with raised bands decorated. Work composed of 5 texts in first edition gathered in one volume: La chambre des comptes d'Innocent XI 5th dialogue Le songe de Pasquin ou le bal de l'Europe 2nd dialogue Le festin de Guillemot 4th dialogue La pierre de touche politique la diète d'Augsbourg 9th dialogue. The dialogues appeared anonymously between 1688 and 1691. The pasquinades are satirical dialogues between two harlequin-like characters Pasquin and Marsorio. It is Pasquin who leads the subject his sidekick asking questions. The whole is treated with all the desired lightness reads easily the humor and satire are often irresistible. These dialogues were published separately and each contains a title page with a publisher whose name is often fanciful and a different city it goes without saying that there is only one publisher in reality. 19 dialogues were published which it is naturally very rare to see gathered together. The subjects of each dialogue are different and deal as the title indicates with the great affairs of the time and the situation of European countries. Only the first dialogue of the book: la chambre des comptes d'Innocent XI does not place the two usual characters in situation since it is a dialogue between the pope and Saint Peter this dialogue is nevertheless the fifth dialogue of the pasquinades. French writer often given to pamphlets and satire Eustache le Noble 1643-1711 baron de Saint-Georges et de Tenelière was imprisoned at the Conciergerie for fraudulent acts escaped from it was then taken again and banished from France for 9 years he died poor whereas he had been rich. All these dialogues are quite rare and are not easily found. A tear to one joint with lack. Handsome copy. Elzevier hardcover
