AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

GUIBAL (Georges). Mirabeau and Provence. Paris, Albert Fontemoing, 1901, and Ernest Thorin, 1891. Two large octavo volumes, X-430 and 560 pages; about 18.5 × 28 cm.

Compilation of the first part in its second edition (1901) and of the second part in its edition of 1891. The first volume covers the period from May 14, 1770 to May 5, 1789; the second follows Mirabeau from the opening of the Estates-General until his death, April 4, 1791. This combination of editions is the one listed by the Teissèdre catalogue, no. 339.

The interest of the work lies in its Provençal perspective: to the eloquence of the deputy in the Constituent Assembly, Guibal contrasts the history of his election, the expectations of his constituents, and the reactions of the municipalities. The notes notably cite municipal archives and period prints. Copy in paperback bindings under printed covers, bearing the two editorial addresses.

Condition: covers slightly patinated, some marks along the edges.
