AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

One of the two editions that appeared in 1664, this one without the eight lines of errata on the verso of the fourth leaf of the preliminaries. The model of political pamphlets. The Satyre of Menippée is a collective libel against the League. It presents a parodic tableau of the Estates General gathered at the Louvre in 1593 by this Catholic party firmly opposed to any accommodation with the Protestants and which wishes to impose a foreign king. This pamphlet contributed, it is said, to Henry of Navarre being able, under the name Henry IV, to ascend to the throne of France. A folding plate depicting the procession of the League. fragile jaw and nerves rubbed raw.
