OBERLÉ 374. JAMMES, Libertins érudits 267. With 8 fig. by Bleyswick, some very curious. Unique edition of this collection of satires against a colourful character, considered an insatiable pig. They were provoked by the sarcasm with which he seasoned the meals at which he was invited, shamelessly targeting the literati of his time. Bayle regretted that all Montmaur's bon mots had not been collected, as Luther's table talk had been. The first volume contains pieces in Latin including La Vie de Mamurra, la Métamorphose de Montmaur en perroquet, la Métamorphose de Montmaur en cheval. The second volume contains plays in French by Sarrazin (Le Testament de Goulu), Vion Dalibray (Métamorphose de Gomor en marmite), Balzac (Le Barbon), La Mothe Levayer (Le Parasite Mormon), etc. Stamp of Gustave Mouravit and long notes in his hand on the endpapers.
