relié. Condition: occasion. Notis illustrarunt ac sententius que christianos mores minus decent expurgarunt A. Curval et J. Lejard. Approbante RR. DD. Sagiensi episcopi. Dix-huitième édition. AVERTISSEMENT. Ce "De virus" expurgé, longtemps réclamé par bon nombre de maisons d'éducation, honoré du bienveillant accueil de MM les Professeurs, et parvenu en peu d'années à sa septième édition, a pour but de prémunir la jeunesse contre le danger des fausses maximes. Sans changer subtantiellement l'uvre de Lhomond, on a modifié certains passages, qualifiés par un mot des faits qui étaient donnés sans aucune réflexion, adouci partout cette teinte paienne et sauvage que revêtaient les hommes et les choses depuis le commencement du livre jusqu'à la fin. Enfin, plusieurs chapitres ajoutés sous le titre général "De moribus Romanorum" donneront aux enfants une idée plus juste de la dépravation des murs chez les anciens Romains. Rendre le "De Viris" chrétien autant qu'il est possible de le faire, telle a été la pensée des éditeurs. Ils ont eu recours aux textes dont Lhomond s'était servi et apporté un soin minutieux pour conserver à ce recueil le cachet particulier de son style. Des notes en français, placés en bas de page donnent des éclaircissements sur des points de grammaire et sur les questions d'histoire, de mythologie, etc. Le dictionnaire a été également revu et augmenté. En latin, XIV + 265 pages Demi toilé rouge en bon état, cartonnés imprimés défraîchis. Papier intérieur jauni. 11 x 16.

Cloth-backed boards, 4to, 32 cm, 166 pp, 182 ills (some colour). From the blurb: : "The making of fine books has always been one of the hallmarks of a great civilisation, and the exquisite lettering and illustration of the early illuminated manuscripts are known by reputation to everyone. The craftsmanship which goes to the making of a beautiful book has been brought to a high pitch of excellence in France. "The Art of the French Book" traces the history of French book production from 9th century manuscripts to books illustrated by Picasso, Matisse and Braque. Brief chapters on the significance and artistic achievement of each period are followed by numerous illustrations in black-and-white and full colour of the most famous examples of written and printed books throughout the centuries. Books, like other works of art, are naturally products of their age, and the manuscripts of Carolingian or Merovingian times express essential visual elements in their contemporary culture as distinctively as do the books of the Romanesque and Gothic period or the illustrated printed French books of the 19th and 20th centuries. Books in France (including the many exquisite 'limited editions' of modern times) have always been regarded as legitimate means of artistic expression, and as a result a volume on the art of the French book almost attains the character of a history of the main trends in the visual arts. In its own presentation this book continues a great tradition." Contents: Manuscripts, by E. A. van Moe.-The French book in the XVth and XVIth centuries, by R. Brun.-The French book in the XVIIth and XVIIIth centuries, by J. Wilhelm.-The French book in the XIXth century (1801-1870) by P. H. Michel.-The French book in the XXth century, by J.
