Couverture rigide. L'exemplaire de Talleyrand avec son ex-libris armorié "Re que Diou" du château de Valençay | W. Taylor E. Sanger | Londres 1711 | 12.3 x 19.7 cm | Relié | Édition originale de la traduction anglaise de"De Logomachiis eruditorum" (Amsterdam, 1688) du théologien suisse réformé Samuel Werenfels (1657-1740), qui forme un très intéressant essai sur les obstacles à l'entente entre les Chrétiens fournis par les interminables disputes autour des termes employés pour définir les points de croyance. Reliure en pleine basane fauve granitée, dos à cinq nerfs orné de caissons dorés et décorés de fleurons dorés, frottements sur le dos, titre doré de l'ouvrage presque totalement effacé, coiffes arasées, un petit manque sur la coiffe inférieure, encadrement de double filet dorés avec fleurons d'angle sur les plats, accrocs sur les coupes, liserés dorés sur les coupes, coins émoussés, tranches mouchetées de rouge, reliure de l'époque. Quelques petites rousseurs.

A few small spots of foxing. Full speckled fawn calf, the spine with five raised bands decorated with gilt compartments and gilt tools; rubbing to the spine, the gilt title almost entirely effaced, headcaps trimmed down with a small loss to the tailcap; gilt double-fillet border with gilt corner tools on the covers; some wear to the board edges with gilt fillets, corners softened; edges sprinkled red; contemporary binding.

Copy from the library of Charles-Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord, bearing his armorial bookplate "Re que Diou" from the Château de Valençay, mounted on the front endpapers. A highly appealing provenance, given the fundamental scepticism of the former bishop of Autun. * in-8 ; xii et 236 pp.…
