Abstract
Joseph Étienne, marquis de Surville (1755–1798) composed a wildly successful book of poems, first published in 1803, that he passed off as the work of his ancestor Clotilde de Surville (c. 1405-c. 1498). A newly-discovered copy of the first edition—presented by the author's widow to a family friend—contains Joseph Étienne's preface, transcribed and published here for the first time.
JosephÉtienne,侯爵de Surville(1755–1798)创作了一本非常成功的诗集,于1803年首次出版,他将其冒充为其祖先Clotilde de Surville(约1405年至约1498年)的作品。一份新发现的第一版副本由作者的遗孀赠送给一位家庭朋友,其中包含JosephÉtienne的序言,该序言首次在这里转录并出版。
期刊介绍:
The Library is the journal of the Bibliographical Society. For more than a hundred years it has been the pre-eminent UK scholarly journal for the study of bibliography and of the role of the book in history. All aspects of descriptive, analytical, textual and historical bibliography come within its scope, including the history of the production, distribution and reception of books, both manuscript and printed; the history of collecting and of libraries; paper, printing types, book illustration, and binding; and the transmission of texts and their authenticity.
