Pasquin et Marforio sur les intrigues de l'État, by le sieur de Sandricourt. Paris, 1652, 40 pages. MOREAU 2725.
- Accouchée (1') espagnole, avec le caquet des politiques, ou le frère et la suite du politique lutin sur les maladies de l'Etat, by le sieur de Sandricourt. Paris, 1652, 23 pages. MOREAU 19. The text presents Sandricourt, pseudonym of a very prolific pamphleteer of the Fronde. He was the author of a vast collection entitled Les Fictions politiques, published in 1652, consisting of numerous satirical pieces on the civil unrest in France, aimed in particular at Mazarin and the political events of the time. His work is organised into two main parts, containing texts that are both political and burlesque, dealing with various subjects such as court intrigues, the princes and the state of the kingdom, making it a very rich and critical collection of the Fronde period.
- Réponse pour messieurs les princes au libelle séditieux intitulé: l'Esprit de paix, semé dans les rues de Paris la nuit du 25 juin 1652, pièce académique par le sieur de Sandricourt. Paris, 1652, 12 pages. MOREAU 3449. In the Adieu de Sandricourt, the author says: Putting on the frontispiece the play that violence prevented from being shown in daylight, and not responding to it with the same force or in all its parts, I industriously produced the condemnation for the defence. This is too subtle to be sincere.
- Censor (le) censuré, addressed to Sieur de Sandricourt, author of a libel entitled: Le Censeur du temps, touchant les régences des reines, mères des rois, en 1652. Paris, 1657, 10 pages. MOREAU 66 BIS. The text describes various editions and reprints of a pamphlet linked to the Fronde, specifying their content and pagination. It also compares the authors D'Audiguier and Sandricourt, noting that D'Audiguier writes with more politeness and subtlety, even if his judgements, notably on the Salic law, are judged to be excessive.
- Entretien secret de messieurs de la cour de Saint-Germain avec messieurs de la cour de Parlement de Paris. Paris, Jean Hénault, 1649, 23 pages. MOREAU 1244. The text presents a speech attributed to the supporters of the court of Saint-Germain, marked by strong passion and directed against Jansenism. It relates accusations and polemical remarks, notably on religion, which some attribute to the Prince of Condé, although their authenticity is debated and mentioned as uncertain in contemporary annotations.
- Décision de la question du temps, à la reine régente. Paris, Cardin Besongne, 1649, 15 pages. Portrait of Anne of Austria. MOREAU 874. The text presents a pamphlet from the Fronde, considered serious and critical, which reproaches the queen for the excesses of the troops and mixes religious and political arguments. It is considered by some authors to be a serious and important play. The passage also describes several editions of the text published in 1649, indicating that it was widely circulated.
- Mot (le) à l'oreille sur les desseins particulières (sic) de la reine et du cardinal Mazarin (S. 1., 1652), 15 pages. MOREAU 2499. Turenne had not yet taken command of the King's army; but it was already said that the Prince de Condé had left Guyenne.
- Politique (la) sicilienne, ou les Pernicieux desseins du cardinal Mazarin déclarés à monseigneur le duc de Beaufort de la part de toutes les provinces de France. (S. 1.), 1650, 34 pages. MOREAU 2817. The most violent pamphlet perhaps, but not the best.
- Vérité (la) toute nue, ou Avis sincère et désintéressé sur les véritables causes des maux de l'État, et les moyens d'y apporter le remède. Paris, 1652, 23 pages. MOREAU 4007. This text is a pamphlet on the Fronde, considered honest and moderate, which criticises all the political players of the time (Mazarin, the Parlement, the Prince de Condé, etc.) and defends the idea that Mazarin's return could calm the unrest. Some authors hailed it as one of the most reasonable texts of its time. The passage also mentions criticisms and responses published against him, as well as several possible editions and attributions of the work.
- Fidèle (le) intéressé, by L. S. C. C. A. P. D. A. Paris, 1652, 12 pages. MOREAU 1388. The author refutes both the naked truth and the Guide to the path of freedom. He holds a sort of middle ground between the court and the Fronde. A good play.
- Complot (le) et entretien burlesque sur l'arrêt du 29 décembre, contenant les principaux chefs d'accusation contre le ministère du cardinal Mazarin, by le sieur de Sandricourt. Paris, 1652, 23 pages. MOREAU 729. Second edition of the Procès du cardinal Mazarin, etc. The author has added, at the beginning, an invective against the Sentiments d'un fidèle sujet du roi sur l'arrêt du 29 décembre.
- Secret (le) de la retraite de monseigneur le Prince, contenant une fidèle et courte deduction de toutes les intrigues qu'on a joué (sic) dans l'État, depuis son éloignement jusqu'à l'arrêt de proscription donné contre le cardinal Mazarin (S. 1., 1652), 30 pages. Portrait of Louis de Bourdon. MOREAU 3628. A useful and curious addition to the Histoire de la prison et de la liberté de M. le prince.
- Procès (le) du cardinal Mazarin tiré du greffe de la cour, avec les chefs d'accusation proposés par la France contre l'insolence de son ministère, présenté à Son Altesse Royale par le sieur de Sandricourt. Paris, 1652, 15 pages. Portrait of Jules Mazarin. MOREAU 2887. It is known that a second enlarged edition appeared under the title of: le Complot et entretien burlesque sur l'arrêt du 29 décembre, etc.
- Mercure (le) de la cour, ou les Conférences secrètes du cardinal Mazarin avec ses conseillers et confidents pour venir à bout de ses entreprises. Dedicated to the Parisians, with this epigraph: "Nolite fieri sicut equus et mulus, quibus non est intellectus." Paris, 1652. MOREAU 2452. The text describes Le Mercure de la cour, a pamphlet in five parts, sometimes incomplete and whose sequel is uncertain. It covers a short period of the Fronde and is a lively, satirical and provocative work, rich in anecdotes. It features debates on whether or not Mazarin should remain at court, criticises political life and contains irreverent passages, in particular a false will by Cardinal Mazarin and attacks on the queen and those in power.
- Honteuse (la) fuite de Mazarin, contenant le sujet de sa sortie. Paris, 1651, 8 pages. MOREAU 1663.
- Pot (le) aux roses découvert, ou le Véritable récit des projets que Mazarin fait état d'exécuter tôt ou tard, selon la nécessité des affaires présentes. Paris, 1652, 16 pages. MOREAU 2829, etc.
