Édition originale française, donnée par le traducteur Lebrun des Charmettes.Sydney Morgan-Owenson (Dublin, 1776- Londres, 1859), fille d'acteur, femme de lettre, elle épouse, en 1812, le médecin Charles Morgan. Elle rédigea plusieurs ouvrages, historiques, politiques, poétiques et des romans, le plus souvent traduits en français au XIXème siècle.Suite d'articles, ce journal circonstancié nous livre ses réflexions sur la France de la Restauration. Comme la dame était d'opinions libérales, ce texte lui valut d'être attaquée avec une rare fureur dans la Quarterly Review par John Wilson Croker (1780-1857) : elle y fut est accusée de jacobinisme, falsification, licence fautive et impiété, rien de moins.

Paris, Pierre Dufart, 1821, quattro volumi in-8°, legatura in mezza pelle coeva con angoli, tasselli rossi e fregi dorati ai dorsi, pp. (6)-415 + (4)-416 + (2)-439 + (4)-501. Versione francese (a cura di Mlle Saubry) apparsa nello stesso anno dell'originale inglese, di un'opera che suscitò molti echi polemici nell'opinione pubblica italiana per la sua libertà di giudizio sulle condizioni reazionarie dell'Italia dopo la Restaurazione. Cuffie lise; difetto alla cerniera posteriore del t. III; sfregature ai bordi dei piatti; ma volumi ben solidi. All'interno timbri bibliotecari di dismissione ai frontespizi; qualche arrossatura dovuta alla qualità della carta.
4 voll. in-8°, pp. (6), 415; (6), 412 [le pp. 413-416, di indice, sono anteposte in principio del volume); (4), 439; (4), 503; legatura coeva mezza pelle marrone e angoli con titolo in oro su tassello rosso ai dorsi, adorni anche di tomaisons e di fregi dorati. Piatti in marmorizzatura caillouté policroma. Bellissimo esemplare. Prima edizione francese, contemporanea all'originale inglese, di questa celebre e vivida relazione di viaggio in Italia nel biennio 1819-1820, letta ed apprezzata, fra gli altri, dallo stesso Byron. "Le descrizioni si seguono da Nord a Sud, iniziando dal Moncenisio per arrivare a Napoli (Piemonte, Lombardia, Genova, Emilia-Romagna, Toscana, Roma, Napoli). Il ritorno passa rapidamente da Tolentino, Ancona, San Marino, Faenza, Padova fino a Venezia alla quale è dedicato l'ultimo capitolo" (Olschki). L'opera è improntata ad illuminate idee liberali e polemizza aspramente con la Chiesa e con le vessazioni che si verificavano ai danni della popolazioni in molti degli stati in cui era frammentata un Italia ancora non unificata. Profondamente sensibile alle questioni sociali, Lady Morgan denuncia lo stato di povertà e di sfruttamento in cui giaceva molta parte della popolazione italiana. In ragione di queste requisitorie la lettura e la pubblicazione del libro venne interdetta nello Stato della Chiesa. Sidney Owenson, in seguito Sidney Morgan (al confine tra Gran Bretagna ed Irlanda, 1776-Londra, 1859) fu una romanziera irlandese assai nota nella prima metà del XIX secolo nei paesi anglofoni. Pine-Coffin, 819/14: "Standard tour. With appendices on law, medicine, etc. Lady Morgan's Italy was at once one of the most comprehensive and most controversial works on Italy published at this time.". A testimonianza della controversa accoglienza ricevuta da quest'opera alcuni critici preferirono non commentare, altri la accolsero con entusiasmo. Byron così si espresse: "a really excellent book". Olschki, I, 470.

First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. No Jacket. First Edition. Paris: A. And W. Galignani, 1829. Dublin-born, and not wealthy, Lady Sidney Owenson Morgan (1776 to 1781-1859) was one of the most interesting literary figures of her time, both wildly popular ("The Wild Irish Girl," 1806) and well-criticized. She had her revenge; her critics sometimes became rather nasty characters in her novels. Cagey about her exact age, contemporary portraits reveal her to be a great beauty of the day. She was perhaps a social climber; if so, she was rather good at it. This is a Near Fine copy of the First Edition. A scarce book; most copies seen are two separate volumes. Although published in Paris, the book is in written in English; her "To the Reader" makes clear that the book is intended as light reading such as might be found in a lady's boudoir, and was published through her publisher's entreaty. Perhaps he knew his market! Clean text; 268 pages. Extremely bright and clear; Quercus believes the paper has been conserved, probably at the time it was rebound in an ochre color with gilt lettering. Size: 16mo - over 5¾" - 6¾" tall. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/No Jacket.

Couverture rigide. Condition: Bon. 2 vol., XIV-346 + [4]-478 pp. Paris et Londres, chez Treuttel et Würtz [de l'imprimerie de Crapelet], 1818, in-8, 2 vol, XIV-346 + [4]-478 pp, Demi-basane bleu nuit, dos lisses ornés de fers romantiques [Ducay], Troisième édition française, due à Philippe Alexandre Lebrun de Charmettes, du compte-rendu de la romancière irlandaise Sydney Owenson, dit Lady Morgan (1776-1859), sur la société et la culture françaises à l'époque de la Restauration. L'auteur rédigea l'ouvrage à l'issue d'un séjour de 5 mois, qu'elle passa presque essentiellement à Paris, au cours duquel elle se consacra à l'observation et à l'enquête. Son travail, publié pour la première fois à Londres en 1817, contient des réflexions sur les paysans, le théâtre ou encore les écrivains. La presse française lui reprocha de porter la marque de son engament politique : l'écrivaine s'est en effet efforcée de démontrer les bienfaits de la Révolution de 1789 et de souligner, en contrepartie, les maux et les injustices qui ont été restaurés en même temps que la monarchie. Le second volume s'achève sur trois appendices écrits par son mari, Thomas Charles Morgan, sur la législation, les finances et la médecine en France. Ex-libris de Jean Rouché. Dos insolés. Bon état intérieur, malgré quelques rousseurs éparses. Quérard VI, p. 315.
In-4 de XV-252-248-CXV pp., demi-maroquin rouge à grains longs, dos à nerfs, entièrement non rogné (Champs). Édition originale. Le faux-titre semble manquer. « C'est un livre superficiel ; Lady Morgan n'avait ni le jugement assez ferme, ni le coup d'?il assez sûr, pour juger ainsi d'un regard un grand pays ; mais on y trouve quantité d'anecdotes curieuses, de propos de salon, de portraits satiriques croqués avec esprit, des mots spirituels ; le tout parsemé d'un certain nombre d'anchronismes et d'erreurs tout au moins singulières » (Larousse). Bel exemplaire. Chiffre couronné en queue.
