[Pierre NICOLE]. De l'éducation d'un prince. Divisée en troi - Lot 40
[Pierre NICOLE]. De l'éducation d'un prince. Divisée en trois Parties, dont la dernière contient divers Traittez utiles à tout le monde. Paris, veuve Charles Savreux, 1670. In-12, brown calf, spine with 5 ornate nerves (period binding). Brunet, IV-401 / Cioranescu, 51161 / Maire, V-10 /// (11f., out of 12?)-426-(2f.). First edition of this Jansenist pedagogical précis composed by Nicole under the pseudonym Chanteresne, the name given to the Approbation and the privilège. It contains the three Discours de feu M. Paschal sur la condition des grands (pp. 269-285), often attributed to Blaise Pascal but in fact written by Nicole ten years after the philosopher's death. The first quire contains only 7 leaves, but appears to be complete and in any case conforms to the BnF copy. The two table leaves are bound in fine here. Handwritten bookplate of François Chassin on title. Angular staining to one quire.
