Inscribed on second flyleaf: "à Son Excellence Monsieur Duff Cooper / ce message d'amité franco-britannique en respectueux et fidèles souvenirs." Octavo 25cm. Morocco-backed marbled boards; marbled endpapers; top edge gilt; 2 preliminary leaves; 14 115 19pp; illus; includes engraved extra-title frontispiece and 10 wood-engraved text illustrations by Jean-Vital Prost based on original designs by Blake. Spine leather minutely rubbed on raised bands gentle rubbing to bottom board edges else a very fresh Near Fine copy. Includes two brief essays on Blake by Daniel-Rops. With Cooper's handsome engraved rococco bookplate to front pastedown designed by Rex Whistler. Text in French. Lovely bibliophile edition of this modern French translation published immediately after the Second World War. The inscription to Cooper who had been appointed British Ambassador to France immediately after the fall of the Vichy government expresses "a message of Franco-British friendship." Perhaps this was intended as something of a peace offering as Daniel-Rops a prominent conservative Catholic intellectual had initially supported the conservative social direction of Pétain's "Revolution Nationale" and the Vichy régime - though as the war went on he became if not a critic of then at least no longer an apologist for Nazi collaborationism. Cooper who had been Churchill's Minister of Information at the beginning of the War and among the British Conservative Party's most steadfast anti-Fascists would have known something of Daniel-Rops' political pedigree perhaps lending an extra shade of meaning to the author's inscription. An interesting and distinguished copy of a beautifully-produced book with the fabulous Whistler bookplate. La Jeune Parque unknown
