This work by Émérigon (1716-1784) was considered at the time 'un oracle presque toujours sûr en matière d'assurance et cité devant les tribuneaux comme une autorité qui fait pour ainsi dire loi' (Dictionnaire de Biographie Française XII, 1241) Deals not only with the subject mentioned in the title, but covers the whole of maritime law. (i.e. chapter 6: du navire; chapter xii: des risques maritimes; vol. 2, chapter iii: Du change maritime etc.) 'Le Traité des assurances n'est pas borné à la seule matière qu'indique son titre. Il embrasse la presque totalité du droit maritime, et ne saurait être trop recommandé à ceux qui s'occupent de cette importante partie de la législation' (Camus).The author acquired during his long career an immense knowledge about the subjects concerned here, and in fact supplied much very important material to Valin for his important work on the ordinance of 1681.'The author of this work, an advocate in the parliament of Aix and a councillor in the admiralty court of Marseilles, died in 1784 . He had by long practice and study acquired a very extensive and profound knowledge of maritime and commercial law. This treatise is of the highest authority.

With approbation and privilège. …
