Description
PATIN, Guy - Lettres choisies, dans lesquelles sont contenues plusieures particularités historiques sur la vie et la mort des savants de ce siècle sur leurs écrits et plusieurs autres choses sérieuses depuis l'an 1645 jusqu'en 1672. The Hague, Henry Van Bulderen, 1707. 3 vol. in-12, brown calf, spine ribbed and decorated.
SHF1007. The letters contain a wealth of information on French mores and social conditions from the end of the reign of Louis XIII to the first years of the reign of Louis XIV, as well as on intellectual life. Addressed by a doctor to other doctors, their caustic spirit, no less than his acquaintances (Naudé, De Thou, the Dupuys), made their author an eminent representative of erudite libertinism. (V. Pintard, pp. 311-325).
