rigide. Condition: Bon. 1 vol. in-4 cartonnage bradel fin XIXe, De l'Imprimerie de Vogel et Schulze, Se trouve chez MM. Dulau et Co, Soho-Square, Londres, 1811, 2 ff., frontispice, 61 pp. Très rare exemplaire de cette "Lettre à Sophie" sur la fête donnée à l'occasion de l'anniversaire du Roi George III (son fils le prince de Galles étant alors prince-régent en raison de la folie de son père), que l'extraordinaire baron de Géramb (1772-1848) rédigea à la suite de sa "Lettre au Comte Moira", parue en 1810. Ces deux lettres visaient à encourager l'enrôlement de volontaires pour venir soutenir les espagnols contre les français à Cadix. Grièvement blessé lors du siège de Cadix, Ferdinand de Géramb avait été envoyé en Angleterre et financé par la Junte de Cadix pour y obtenir un soutien. Mais ses dépenses inconsidérées l'amèneront à fuir l'Angleterre pour le Danemark, ce qui le conduira à l'incarcération par les français, d'abord à Hambourg puis au donjon de Vincennes. Durant sa captivité, la fréquentation de l'évêque de Troyes et du Père Fontana décideront de sa conversion et de son départ pour la Trappe, où il prendra le nom de Père Marie-Joseph ! Mais les aventures de ce personnage digne de l'Aramis de Dumas, qui connut les terrains de bataille d'Ulm, de Wagram ou de Cadix, ne se termineront pas là. Bel envoi du baron de Géramb "pour la meilleure des Mères, la plus tendre des épouses, en un mot pour Madame Forster". Bon état (qq. usures en marges des feuillets parfois mal coupés, bon exemplaire à belles marges par ailleurs, ex-libris gravé d'un panier de fleurs avec initiales LAC en garde) pour cet exemplaire de l'édition originale, de toute rareté, et dédicacé par son si romanesque auteur ! Langue: Français. signé par l'auteur.…

Le baron Ferdinand de GÉRAMB (1772-1848), devenu le "Père Marie Joseph" en 1817, est un aventurier autrichien mais aussi un écrivain français et un des restaurateurs en France de l'Ordre cistercien de la stricte observance (ordre des Trappistes). Avant d'entrer dans les ordres il se maria, eut six enfants, mena une vie de soldat mouvementée, fut un agent actif de lutte contre la Révolution française et atteignit le rang de lieutenant-général dans l'armée autrichienne. Ayant levé un corps franc croate, il combattit à Wagram et fut un temps au service du tsar. Il remplit ensuite des missions en Sicile, Espagne et en Angleterre, toujours contre la France impériale et multipliant également des aventures parfois controversées. Son "Pélerinage", voyage au Levant rédigé sous forme de lettres, décrit son périple à travers l'Égypte, la Palestine, la Syrie et le Liban, durant lequel il visite Jérusalem, Bethléem, Jaffa, Nazareth, etc. Son récit fourmille d'anecdotes et de renseignements sur la vie quotidienne des natifs.

BEL EXEMPLAIRE conservé dans une splendide reliure romantique en maroquin décorée réalisée par le relieur lyonnais Pierre DEVERS. NICE COPY. PICTURES AND MORE DETAILS ON REQUEST.…
