La Mothe le Vayer, (François de) - Hexameron rustique, ou les six journées passées à la campagne entre des personnes studieuses. Cologne, Pierre Brenussen 1698. In-12° full calf, fillets on covers, 160 pp. 1 ff (manuscript key) This work "revives the lust of youth, flirting with obscenity and mockery, and denounces, with uncertain intentions, the abuses introduced by the people into religion" (Pintard, p. 431 and 536). "L'Hexameron rustique, ou Six jours à la campagne avec des gens savants" can be considered a model of "libertine erudition", as defined by René Pintard. Ex-libris "Bibliothèque du Baron de Warenghien". Wear from use.
