Épître au Lord Landsdowne sur la paix de 1712.Edward Young (1683-1765) est un poète romantique anglais. Son poème Plaintes ou Pensées nocturnes sur la vie, la mort et l’immortalité (1742-1745), connu sous le nom de Nuit, inaugura le genre sombre et mélancolique du romantisme. En France, Pierre Le Tourneur traduisit les Nuits en prose plus emphatique et plus lugubre que les vers de l’original. Cette version (1769) eut un immense succès et assura, dans ce pays où elle devint un classique de l’école romantique, une réputation supérieure à celle même dont jouissait Young dans son pays.Dernière Édition, corrigée et augmentée du Triomphe de la Religion. 4 frontispices (Vinkeles).A Amsterdam, chez E. van Harrevelt 1771-1772.Reliure plein veau de l'époque.
