[VOLTARY] - Lot 92
[VOLTARY] The Maid of Orleans. Heroic comic poem. First edition. A Paris [Amsterdam], 1755, in-12 bound in old full basane, first loose cover, in slipcase. Two repeated leaves of song VI after the title, handwritten annotations blurred in the title. Provenance: Geo A Library. Zabriskie (ex-libris heraldry). The first publication of this work was a clandestine one, from 1755 in Louvain (actually Frankfurt), which was followed by a few others in the same year, all of which were disowned by Voltaire, and it was only in 1762 that Voltaire published an edition of his work, in 21 songs.
