Description
THE GREAT DANCE OF DEATH (La) of men and women, preceded by the dialogue between the three dead and the three living, the debate between body and soul, and the lament of the damned soul.

Reprint of the Dance of Death of Troyes. Text conforms to the 1486 edition, of which Jehan Lecocq’s 1539 Troyes edition was a copy, in turn reproduced by Garnier in Troyes in 1641, but with a text that was ‘revised and more polished…’. Printed on laid paper.
