The rare, presumbly, first edition of Mere’s dialog between Marechal de Clerambault and Chevalier de Mere. Brunet list this 1669-edition asthe first.Tchemerzine mention an edition from 1668 but notes that he has not seen it: “nous n'avons pas vu d'exemplaire de cette édition, inconnue jusqu'à la vente de Rochebilière” (Tchemerzine VIII, p. 219). Chevalier de Méré (1607-1684), whose real name was Antoine Gombaud, was a French writer and thinker. De Méré was known for his contributions to literature, particularly in the of moral philosophy and social commentary. He is perhaps best remembered for his participation in the intellectual circles of his time, where he engaged in discussions and correspondences of which this work is a fine testimony. De Méré's writings, especially the present, offer insights into the social and cultural milieu of 17th-century France. We have only been able to trace one copy at auction.OCLC list no copies (of both the 1669-edition and the presumed 1668-edition). Tchemerzine VIII, p. 219 Brunet III, 1648.
