A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Madame de Sevigne s Letters. Chief among them are M. de Monmerque scomprehensive and admirably edited volumes. Besides, there are selections for the use of schools, of which Madame Tastu sis, I believe, the standard. An excellent edition, published by Messrs Firmin Didot, has been chiefly used in the compilation of this little handbook. It is preceded by a short memoir by M. Jacquinet, in which it is stated that Madame de Sevigne s Letters had always been admired, and were constantly handed about and copied by her friends, but that it was not till 1726 that the first edition was printed by the Abbe de Bussy, to whom Pauline Madame de Simiane had given transcripts of many of the originals. The Abbe must also have inherited from his father, Bussy de Eabutin, papers containing the original correspondence between the two cousins.

Présentation de l'éditeur :

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
