vii + 99pp. Spine trifle marked, a good paperback copy. Text in French. "In October 1685, King Narai of Siam organized a grand reception for the Ambassador of France. One of the latter's entourage was de Choise, a distinguished member of the French nobility. His diary takes us from the French port of Brest in March 1685, via Dutch Batavia to Siam, arriving in August 1668. His description of Siam centres around court life in the capital, Ayutthaya, at a time when French influence was approaching its zenith." (Publisher's description).

Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Condition: very good. London : Peter Owen Publishers, 2007. Paperback. 188 pp. English text. Condition : very good. - Memoirs of the courtier and abbot whose cross-dressing brought him into conflict with French society. By a whim of his mother, Francois Timoleon de Choisy-better known as the Abbé de Choisy-was dressed as a girl until the age of 18. After a short spell in male attire he became, by all accounts, the classic transvestite-a male heterosexual who never attempted to disguise his biological sex while going about in public in full female attire. Choisy's fascination with feminine accoutrements made him something of an expert on women's fashions, and prominent society women even brought their daughters to him for advice. His increasingly extravagant toilettes and exhibitionist behavior eventually earned him a public rebuke and exile from Paris. This study recounts the scandalous and entertaining escapades for which Choisy is best known today in a light, intimate, and accessible style. These authentic memoirs provide a firsthand account of manners and morals in late 17th-century society as well as remarkably exact portraits of his contemporaries, constituting a remarkable document in the history of transvestism. Condition : very good copy. ISBN 9780720612561. Keywords : ,
