Zena Chiara Masud

Passionnante édition illustrée, fruit d’une collaboration entre le comte Antoine-François-Félix Roselly de Lorgues et l’éditeur catholique Eugène Mathieu -

Dans une prose ample et fervente, Roselly de Lorgues présente Colomb non seulement comme un navigateur visionnaire, mais surtout comme un instrument providentiel de la mission chrétienne, guidé par la foi et investi d’un dessein divin -

L’ouvrage retrace minutieusement les étapes de sa vie — de ses origines génoises à ses expéditions transatlantiques, de ses relations avec les rois catholiques à ses épreuves finales — en insistant sur la dimension mystique de son entreprise et en dénonçant les injustices qu’il subit -

La préface de Mathieu renforce cette lecture hagiographique, en inscrivant Colomb dans une tradition de héros catholiques incompris -

Roselly de Lorgues / M. Eugène Mathieu - Christophe Colomb - 1879 - Victor Palmé et Joseph albanel -

Bon état de la reliure, ouvrage dans son plein cartonnage rouge illustré d'origine, frottements d'usage, mors fendillés, usures sur coiffes et coins, tranches dorées, dos lisse orné, titrage et ornementations dorés, filets frappés en noir et or sur les plats - 

Bon état intérieur, quelques rousseurs éparses, ouvrage illustré d'encadrement variés a chaque page et de chromolithographies, titre en noir et rouge, pages de garde marbrées -
