Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 4to. 123p. Bound in a parchment leaf, probably part of a 16th-century notarial document. ***** This collection of three treatises - largely concerning marriage and inheritance law - was first published at Lyon in 1536, the year in which its author became an active member of the Paris Parlement.…As a suspected crypto-Protestant, Fumée prudently withdrew from Paris in the early 1560s and became attached to the Breton Parlement. He later returned to Paris and celebrated the accession of Henri III (1574) with a lively flurry of literary activity, including three courtly eclogues in Latin and a panegyric on the king s return from Poland. Répertoire bibliographique des livres imprimés en France au 16e siècle, 20e livraison, 151 (Toulouse), p.158, no.3. USTC 111950 (recording 5 copies). This edition not in NUC, BL or BN (Paris).

In-12 de (8)-387 ff. 1 f.bl., maroquin vert, dos lisse orné, triple filet doré d'encadrement sur les plats, tranches dorées (reliure du XVIIIe siècle). Deuxième édition publiée treize ans après l'originale (1599). Sous forme de dialogues amoureux, cet ouvrage, présenté comme la traduction d'un manuscrit d'Athenagoras, donne un t…raité fort curieux pour arriver au but secret de la philosophie hermétique. Attribué au savant commentateur de Vitruve, Philander, on se retourna bien vite vers le traducteur qui signa l'épître dédicatoire au Cardinal d'Armagnac pour démasquer l'auteur Martin Fumée, sieur de Genillé, gentilhomme de la Chambre du duc d'Anjou (1540-1590). Collin de Plancy lui consacra un article dans son Dictionnaire Infernal : « Fumée trouva le moyen de le faire rechercher des adeptes par diverses allusions et surtout par un passage curieux, où sous le voile de l'allégorie, il peint la confection du grand oeuvre ».Bel exemplaire. Note bibliographique manuscrite rédigée en anglais (XIXe) sur la garde supérieure relative à la supercherie du roman de Martin Fumée. Petites rousseurs. Caillet, II, 4253 ; Gay, II, 46 ; Lenglet Dufresnoy, II p. 106 ; Nourry, 193.

1 vol. in-folio, demi-basane brune glacée, dos à nerfs orné de filets dorés (dont une grosse abeille au caisson de tête), pièce de titre en maroquin rouge, tranches rouges. Reliure du XVIIIe s. Bel exemplaire. (16) ff., 359 pp., (32) pp. pour les Annotations. Signatures : at6 et6 it4 [A-Z]6 [Aa-Ii]6 Kk4. Cernes dans la marge inf…érieure. Première édition de la traduction française de Martin Fumée, sieur de Genillé en Touraine. Il s'agit d'une traduction partielle des uvres de Procope de Césarée, historien grec du VIe siècle : le traducteur en a écarté les livres qui traitent des guerres de Justinian contre les Perses pour se concentrer sur ceux qui concernent l'Europe. L'intérêt de ce texte était évident en cette fin de XVIe s. marquée par les guerres de religion et le parallèle avec Justinien chassant les hérétiques de l'Empire romain était facile à faire. Son histoire est une peinture jugée fidèle des moeurs des Barbares. Belle édition à la typographie soignée, en belles lettres rondes avec ornements typographiques et lettrines historiées. Exemplaire relié avec la pièce d'armes de l'avocat Abeille (Parlement de Bretagne, XVIIIe s.), bibliophile qui ornait le dos de ses livres d'une abeille d'or.

Paris, Sonnius, 1594. 8vo. In contemporay vellum with yapp edges with title in contemporary hand to spine. Light soiling to extremities and a small tear to the vellum on the spine. Small worm-tract affecting last two leaves, otherwise a fine copy. (4), 369, (26) ff. Exceedingly rare first edition of Fumée?s work on the Hungarian… history from the Battle of Mohács and the death of Louis II in 1526 up until the truce between the Holy Roman Emperor Rudolph II and the Ottoman sultan Murad III.The present work not only presented a narrative history of the sixteenth-century wars in Hungary but also included a geographical description of the region. Fumée explicitly dedicates his history "to you (the French people) and to no other." After vividly portraying the brutality of warfare in Hungary, Fumée urges French readers to contemplate the destructive nature of war. He prompts them to reflect, stating, "When you see the ruins and great desolations of a beautiful and rich country, you see your own at present reduced to an identical state." Fumée draws direct parallels between the sufferings of Hungary and France, both seen as enduring divine punishment. In his conclusion, he asserts, "it seems that we are in a worse condition than Hungary is in." Hungary thus serves as a reminder to the French people of the shared hardships stemming from religious disunity, political turmoil, and civil warfare that continued to afflict both kingdoms. 'Martin Fumée, squire of Mary le Chastel, a high-ranking French aristocrat, based his desciption of the battle of Mohács on the work of István Brodarics (1470-1539), De conflictu Hungarorum cum Turcis ad Mohacz, Cracow, 1527, who in the company of the ill-fated Louis II (1506-1526) was eye-witness to the destruction of the Hungarian army by the Ottoman forces in 1526. Fumée's main source for events following the battle was probably Ascanio degli Hortensii' (Horvath p.26).
