Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Madame De Sevigne There are several well-known editions of Madame de Sévigné´s Letters. Chief among them are M. de Monmerque´s comprehensive and admirably edited volumes. Besides, there are selections for the use of schools, of which Madame Tastu´s is, I believe, the standard. An excellent edition, published by Messrs Firmin Didot, has been chiefly used in the compilation of this little handbook. It is preceded by a short memoir by M. Jacquinet, in which it is stated that Madame de Sevigne´s Letters had always been admired, and were constantly handed about and copied by her friends, but that it was not till 1726 that the first edition was printed by the Abbé de Bussy, to whom "Pauline" - Madame de Simiane - had given transcripts of many of the originals. The Abbe must also have inherited from his father, Bussy de Rabutin, papers containing the original correspondence between the two cousins.
