Fine woodcut printer’s device on title woodcut port. on verso of the dedicatee Henri III & several woodcut illus. in the text. 22 p.l. 558 5 pp. Folio fine 18th-cent. marbled calf joints & ends of spine very carefully repaired arms in gilt on both covers of the great bibliophile. the duc d’Aumont triple gilt fillet round sides spine richly gilt red morocco lettering piece on spine a.e.g. Paris: A. l’Angelier 1584. First edition a fine copy from the library of the great bibliophile the duc d’Aumont 1709-82 one of the outstanding book and art collectors of his age with his arms in gilt on both covers. This is the first French national bibliography a monumental work of fundamental importance for the history of French literature and scholarship. It has remained an indispensable reference and source book to this day as attested by Brunet Petzholdt and Besterman. The roughly 3000 authors are arranged alphabetically by their given names and La Croix du Maine gives succinct bio-bibliographical information for each. Our edition contains a remarkable proposal not reprinted in the 18th-century edition for the formation of a French national royal library housed in about 100 “noble” bookcases of which a most attractive illustration is printed on p. 511. This woodcut appears to be the first illustration of library furniture in a printed book. La Croix du Maine also urges the arrangement of the books by a system that is quite close to a decimal classification. La Croix du Maine 1552-92 began this bibliography at the age of 17 and in the process accumulated a large library. A Protestant sympathizer he was assassinated at 40 and was therefore unable to issue further volumes as he had planned. A fine copy. This copy appeared in the auction lot 2977 of the library of the duc d’Aumont which was sold in January 1783 in Paris by De Bure. â§ Besterman The Beginnings of Systematic Bibliography pp. 24-25.

1687réf. 1559A Paris: Chez Daniel Hortemels Saint Jacques au Mecenas 1687. First edition. In contemporary leather. Spine with five raised bands compartments gilt titled. Tinted edges. Bookplate and shelfmark on inner front panel. A different possessor’s inscription on flyleaf. Ownership stamp on title page. Spine with worm traces. Corners slightly bumped. Inside clean with occasional stains throughout. Overall in very good condition. First edition. In contemporary leather. Spine with five raised bands compartments gilt titled. Tinted edges. 30 370 4 p. Complete. First edition of Du Vignau’s important work dealing with the decline of the Ottoman Empire. L'état présent de la puissance Ottomane was written after the unsuccessful siege of Vienna by the Ottomans in 1683 and the following withdrawal. It deals with the possible reasons led to the decline of the Ottoman Empire and provides an overview of the period Ottoman power. The book gained interest throughout Europe and in the subsequent year a second edition was printed in the Hague and an English translation was also published. A year after the present work Du Vignau published another book Le Sécretaire turc. “In both works he described himself as a former secretary at the French embassy in Istanbul the ‘secrétaire-interprète’ to the King’s fleet in the Mediterranean and even a godson to Louis XVI. None of these claims appear to be true.” Ghobrial 2013 Sieur des Joanots Du Vignau was a pseudonym invented by Édouard de La Croix who was indeed a secretary in the French embassy in Istanbul between 1670 and 1680 and again between 1685–1686. La Croix published his Mémoires in 1684 and four other books between 1686 and his death in 1704 among them Le Sécretaire turc and the present book. “The reason for his having used a pseudonym remains unclear. Interestingly the two titles published under the name Du Vignau … are the only books written by La Croix that were not dedicated to Louis XVI but instead to the Grand Duke of Tuscany an indication perhaps of his attempts to cultivate a new patron in the person of Cosimo III de’ Medici.” Ghobrial 2013 Scarce we could trace only 3 copies in institutional holdings BL; BnF; Bibliothèque municipale de Lyon.
