Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Works of Aphra Behn, Vol. 6 La Montre: or, The Lovers Watch, Licensed 2 Aug.1686. R.L. S.is taken by Mrs. Behn from La Montre of Balthazar de Bonnecorse. After having received an excellent education at Marseilles, where he was born, de Bonnecorse was appointed consul at Cairo, and later transferred to Sidon in the Levant. Whilst at Cairo he composed La Montre, a mixture of prose and verse, which he sent to the great arbiter of Parisian taste, Georges de Scuderi, under whose care it was printed in 1666 at Paris. It was followed in 1671 by the second part, la Bo ete et le Miroir, dedicated to the Duke de Vivonne. Upon his return to France, de Bonnecorse abridged La Montre and put it wholly into verse, in which form it appears in his collected (yet incomplete) works, Chez Theodore Haak. Leyden.1720. Bonnecorse died at Marseilles in 1706. He is always piquant and graceful in his madrigals and songs, though both sentiment and verse have faded a little with the passing of time. Boileau immortalized him in Le Lutrin: la Montre is one of the missiles the enraged canons hurl at each others reverend pates: Lun prend I Edit damour, 1 autre en saisit la Montre Bonnecorse sattempted parody on Le Lutrin, leLutrigot (Marseille, 1686), is of no value, and brought a caustic epigram down on his head.
