Paris: Edouard Rouveyre. Very Good with No dust jacket as issued. 1896. Third Edition. First Printing. Hard Cover. Half brown calf over marbled boards spines in five compartments separate by raised bands gilt lettering in two compartments gilt tools in remainder marbled endpapers. François-Augustin Paradis de Moncrif Paris 1687 - 1770 was a writer librettist choreographer playwright and poet of the Académie Française. François-Augustin de Paradis de Moncrif was the perfect type of the man of the world of the eighteenth century: with a pleasant face pleasant manners and a great deal of wit he was immediately sought after in the most aristocratic circles where his qualities as a fencer introduced him and where he made a place for himself by his many talents. At the same time a poet a musician and a good actor he was prized in particular for those social entertainments that were then in fashion. An accomplished courtier he knew how to show himself to be devout to the Queen at Versailles and cheerful and full of spirit in the city. In this work Moncrif maintains that nothing is more important than pleasing and that everyone has the means to achieve it provided he knows how to use the passions and shortcomings of his interlocutor.The work consists of two parts: the first deals with the necessity of pleasing; the second is presented as a mini-treatise on the education of children: "Le Pouvoir de L'Education et le Merite Personnel" pp. 105-143 of Volume 2 intended for children. Moncrif was imposed on the French Academy by the Duke of Orléans and the Count of Clermont in 1733. The Academy was much criticized for having elected him. Moncrif supported the election of Voltaire. He was also a member of the Berlin Academy. IN FRENCH. Covers moderately rubbed gilt on volume two faded pages browning but supple hinges strong some brief underlining in pencil else fine; tight square and clean. VERY GOOD. . 12mo 7" - 7½" tall. iv 156 2; 143 3 pp . Edouard Rouveyre hardcover
