AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
ANTRAIGUES (Emmanuel de Launay, comte d’). Memoir on the Estates-General, their rights, and the manner of convoking them. In Languedoc, 1789. Brochure of 180 pages, about 12.5 × 20.5 cm.
One of the texts of the debate preceding the opening of the Estates-General. The author subjects the convocation to a question of principle: what are the rights of the nation, and how should its representatives be designated? The oath of the Justiciar of Aragon, printed in two languages on the title, sets the tone for this plea for obedience conditioned by respect for liberties.
The mention “In Languedoc” and the final page numbered 180 allow distinguishing this print from other 1789 editions, some reaching 232 pages. Presented as a brochure, with the title on the first leaf.
Condition: traces of dampness at the foot of the last leaves and slight edge wear.
