A propos de cet article

Rebound in plain dark brown leather in puritanical style of the period, with original leather of front and rear boards laid on. The text is sound and tight, some chipping at edges of the original endpapers has been built up with archive grade materials, the text leaves only have some rounding of the corners. The text block edges are strongly age darkened with general ink splashes, some of which have penetrated the paper area by about 1mm. Inside the text is reasonably clean, with of course the occasional smudge and ink splash from these long ago times. Textually complete, three rear blank flyleaves are lighter in tone though appear from other clues to be original, hence all original leaves appear to be present in good order. The paper is supple ,and only moderately age tanned, mainly near the edges. A scarce and important work which has already received the high quality binding restoration it deserves. This is the 1677 first edition of Miège's "A NEW DICTIONARY French and English, With Another English and French; According to the Present USE, and Modern ORTHOGRAPHY of the FRENCH. INRICH'D With New WORDS, Choice PHRASES, and Apposite PROVERBS; DIGESTED Into a most Accurate METHOD; And CONTRIVED For the USE both of English and Foreiners." Following the dictionaries of Randle Cotgrave, Miège took a different approach, producing this independent work, with no other material added. By the time of the Restoration Miège had emigrated from Switzerland to England and published three French and English dictionaries (1677, 1679, and 1688) in that pair of languages. The front matter of this1677 dictionary contains a title page, a dedication, and a preface. On the title page, Miège explains that he has followed the updated spelling of the French Academy and added new words, phrases, and proverbs. This content is arranged in a methodical way "For the Use both of English and Foreiners". The word "Chansselle" has been neatly added in period hand. The second text is the dedication to Charles Lennox (1672-1723), son of Charles II of England, to whom Miège presents his "Racourci de deux Langues Vulgaires, le Francois & .Anglois." There are a few markings to the endpapers, no other inscriptions we can see apart from that name on the title page. Unpaginated, the work is 8"x9-3/4"x2-1/2". Size: 4to.…
