About this Item

4 volume set, 7 inches tall. Quarter calf with twin labels and gilt centre tools. This copy is of the edition printed for Gosselin's first collected Oeuvres completes. This set is from the library, though without the bookplates, assembled at Voltaire's former home, the Chateau de Cirey ( Champagne) by Mme de Simiane ( 1761-1835 ), sometime lover of Lafayette and later, a correspondent of Fanny Burney. Diane-Adelaide de Simiane's early life was colourful and she came to Cirey in 1795 after a period of incarceration during the Terror. Previously she had been married to Charles-Francois de Simiane, who had served with Lafayette in America and who died in mysterious circumstances in 1787. Seller Inventory # ABE-18252994680
