Attractive set of the first issue of the famous Kehl edition of the complete works by Voltaire pseudonym of François Marie Arouet 1694-1778 and with introductions and notes by Nicolas Marquis de Condorcet 1743-1794. The name of this "Kehl edition" derives from the small German town in which it was printed to avoid French censorship. Following the death of Voltaire the Société Littéraire Typographique was founded there and dedicated themselves to the Herculean task of disseminating Voltaires work through a definitive and typographically magnificent edition. This group of Enlightenment intellectuals was led by Pierre-Augustin Caron de Beaumarchais 1732-1799 who financed the operation as well as the Marquis de Condorcet who acted as the chief editor. De Beaumarchais is perhaps best known for his very successful Figaro plays Le Barbier de Séville Le Mariage de Figaro and La Mère coupable. Two of these plays made incredibly successful transitions to opera: The Barber of Seville was adapted by Paisiello and The Marriage of Figaro was adapted by Mozart and Da Ponte.
