In the spring of 1791, Chateaubriand (1768-1848) left France and set sail for America. He stayed there for a year and published the report of his Voyage en Am\u00e9rique <\/i>in 1826. The news of the King’s flight to Varennes decided him to return to France. At the end of March 1792, he married C\u00e9leste Buisson de la Vigne, a descendant of a family of shipowners from Saint-Malo, aged 17, but he left her immediately and joined the army of \u00e9migr\u00e9s in Coblence to fight against the armies of the Republic. He was wounded and convalesced in Jersey. This marked the end of his military career and in 1793 he moved to London.<\/p>\n
\u00ab En 1794[\u2026il] commence \u00e0 r\u00e9diger l’Essai historique, politique et moral sur les r\u00e9volutions anciennes et modernes, consid\u00e9r\u00e9es dans leurs rapports avec la R\u00e9volution fran\u00e7aise<\/i>. Quand il le publie, en 1797, \u00e0 Londres, la R\u00e9volution est achev\u00e9e. \u00c0 l’en croire, il renie l’ouvrage aussit\u00f4t publi\u00e9 […] L’Essai participe d’une interrogation propre \u00e0 son temps : comment comprendre la rupture de 1789, ses causes, sa violence et ses suites ? Chateaubriand pense y parvenir en l’inscrivant dans une tradition. Pour l’\u00e9dition de 1797, le titre choisi, Essai historique, politique et moral sur les r\u00e9volutions anciennes et modernes, consid\u00e9r\u00e9es dans leurs rapports avec la R\u00e9volution fran\u00e7aise<\/i>, est \u00e0 cet \u00e9gard explicite. Les \u00e9v\u00e9nements de 1789 sont interpr\u00e9t\u00e9s \u00e0 la lumi\u00e8re d’une tradition historiographique inaugur\u00e9e par R. A. de Vertot (1655-1735), auteur d’une Histoire des r\u00e9volutions de Su\u00e8de (1695) et de l’Histoire des r\u00e9volutions dans le gouvernement de la R\u00e9publique romaine (1719)” (Jean Marie Goulemeot, in: Encyclopaedia Universalis).<\/p>\n
In the notice, the publisher explains :”On s’appercevra [sic] que ce n’est pas un seul volume que l’on donne ici au Public, mais deux volumes broch\u00e9s ensemble. L’int\u00e9r\u00eat de l’auteur a \u00e9t\u00e9 de les diviser, l’intersection naturelle se trouvant entre la premi\u00e8re & la seconde partie; ces deux tomes s\u00e9par\u00e9s auroient alors co\u00fbt\u00e9 une demi-guin\u00e9e; r\u00e9unis, ils ne reviendront qu’\u00e0 huit shillings. Malgr\u00e9 le bas prix auquel on livre cet ouvrage, on a soign\u00e9 autant qu’il a \u00e9t\u00e9 possible cette premi\u00e8re \u00e9dition; la seconde qui se fait \u00e0 Paris est exactement la m\u00eame, except\u00e9 qu’on a chang\u00e9 quelque chose dans la division des parties, pour \u00e9viter les contre-fa\u00e7ons de l’\u00e9dition de Londres \u00bb. <\/p>\n
A complete copy with the general title and the two title pages preceding each part, here in the extremely rare edition at Le Mire’s Paris address.<\/p>\n
It also contains the two very distinct editions of the 6 pages of the preface (paginated in Roman numerals) and two editions of the errata leaf with differences in composition.<\/p>\n
