From the Inside Flap:
In this special collector's edition of the French classic Les Liaisons Dangereuses, the Marquise de Merteuil and her accomplished rival in the art of erotic and psychological manipulation, the Vicomte de Valmont, take the stage again in Ernest Dowson's beautifully polished translation of the book which, as Baudelaire famously said, "Burns like ice."
In this new edition of the once infamous novel, the elegance of Dowson's translation is stylishly complemented by the elegant, coolly erotic etchings of Sylvain Sauvage, originally executed by that distinguished French illustrator for a deluxe edition published in Paris in 1930. Sauvage's artful renditions of scenes from the novel provide an elegant accompaniment for the darkly glittering luxury and decadence of le beau monde portrayed by de Laclos.
About the Author:

Pierre Ambroise François Choderlos de Laclos (1741-1803) was born in Amiens, France. He entered the army at the age of 18 and reached the rank of capitaine-commandant without seeing battle. In 1779 he was sent to the island of Aix, where Les Liaisons Dangereuses was written. He also wrote a treatise on the education of women and on the French military architect Vauban.

Book Description Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -La jeune Cécile Volanges quitte son couvent pour faire l apprentissage du monde et épouser le comte de Gercourt, mais une de ses parentes, la marquise de Merteuil, entend profiter de ce projet de mariage pour se venger d une infidélité que lui a faite autrefois Gercourt. Elle charge donc son complice, le vicomte de Valmont, de pervertir Cécile avant ses noces. Mais loin de Paris, dans le château de sa vieille tante, Valmont s est de son côté mis en tête de séduire la dévote présidente de Tourvel, et une idylle bientôt se noue entre la ' petite Volanges ' et le jeune Danceny.Rien ne semblait destiner Laclos à la littérature, et Les Liaisons dangereuses, qu il fait paraître en 1782, sont la seule grande uvre qu ait achevée le capitaine et futur général d artillerie. Le succès est immédiat, mais le roman, frappé de condamnation morale, cessera d être réédité pendant une partie du xixe siècle. De Baudelaire à Giraudoux, de Malraux à Roger Vailland, ce sont des écrivains qui peu à peu l imposent comme un chef-d uvre que le cinéma va populariser. Il se peut que l impeccable maîtrise de ce roman par lettres nous soit devenue lointaine : elle n empêche pas qu il sollicite encore nos rêves et nos fantasmes.Edition de Michel Delon.
