Sobre este artículo
Paris, France: Adrien Egron, Imprimeur. Very Good. 1818. Hardcover. This is a small format three volume set bound in tree-calf leather, with leather and gilt spine labels. The books are in Very Good condition and were issued without dust jackets. All volumes are entirely in FRENCH. The spine ends and corners of the book covers have some light bumping and rubbing. The bottom corners of two of the volumes have darkening / burning. The spine ends, corners and edges of the book covers have some rubbing and wear as well. The endpapers are marbled paper. The text pages are mostly clean and bright, but do have some areas of tidemarking and foxing. "When La Bruyère's Caractères appeared in 1688, Nicolas de Malézieu predicted at once, that it would bring "bien des lecteurs et bien des ennemis" (many readers and many enemies). That proved to be true. Foremost among the critics were Thomas Corneille, Bernard le Bovier de Fontenelle and Isaac de Benserade, who were clearly critical of the book. They were joined by innumerable others, men and women of letters as well as of society, who are identifiable by manuscript "keys" compiled by the scribblers of the day. " (from Wikipedia) .
