Marbled paper boards. Some manuscript notes in margins of certain leaves. Foxing and marginal dampstaining to right corner of the Addition au supplément. Overall paper more or less yellowed. From 1773 to 1774 Beaumarchais published 4 memoirs in which he dramatized his legal adventure one can see that he had chosen to represent himself. These 4 memoirs which blend dialogues and interrogations entertained all of Paris even Madame Du Barry and were performed everywhere in cafés and on the boulevards as they constitute a formidable comedy in which lies are ultimately revealed. Beaumarchais was indeed acquitted in the case that opposed him to Judge Goezman; the latter was the reporting judge in his trial regarding the Paris-Duverney inheritance which ruined and dishonored the author. Beaumarchais accused Goezman of corruption and the judge in turn accused Beaumarchais of defamation and attempted corruption. Judge Goezman constitutes above all a symbol of the corruption of the new Parliament erected by Louis XV and of the arbitrariness of justice. Imprimerie de Valleyre hardcover
