Saint Marc Girardin

Verlag: Manuscript, France

Beschreibung

A 2 page letter to (we think) Marie-Louis Auguste de Martin du Tyrac de Marcellus, signed in full and a hand written reply without a signature from Marcellus? Whilst we guarantee the signature of Girardin the date of the other letter seems to read 1813 if so it is too early as Girardin would be too young to be corresponding (realistically?) The Girardin letter is undated but 1820's from handwriting style of the period. Very good and clear, ink has gone sepia but all legible. NOTE* After a brilliant university career in the city, he began in 1828 to contribute to the Journal des Débats, on the staff of which he remained for nearly half a century. After the July Revolution and the accession of Louis Philippe as King of the French (the liberal July Monarchy), he was appointed professor of history at the Sorbonne and master of requests in the Conseil d'État. He wrote and was a published author and his most well known work was Cours de Littérature Dramatique (1843?1863). Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9179
