‎Uncommon first French transation, published the same years as the original English of Burnet’s “Three letters concerning the present state of Italy”. Here Burnet is offering a detailed account of his travels in Italy where Pope Innocent XI offered him an audience, which Burnet declined on account of his poor knowledge of the Italian language. Gilbert Burnet (1643 –1715) was a Scottish philosopher and historian and later Bishop of Salisbury. He was fluent in Dutch, French, Latin, Greek and Hebrew.‎
