Gazette de France. Year 1813 complete, 365 issues from n°1 (January 1, 1813) to n°359 (December 31, 1813), with supplements (1 for n°59, 3 for n°96, 1 for n°184, 1 for n°278, 2 for n°279, 1 for n°280, 1 for n°359) in-folio of 4 pp. each in ff. Several numbering errors in places but all dates follow each other well. Good condition, some rare worn issues. Created in 1631 with the support of Richelieu by Théophraste Renaudot, physician to Louis XIII, the Gazette was one of the oldest newspapers published in France until its disappearance in 1915. Its ancestor is the Mercure françois which appeared from 1611 to 1648. Appearing every Saturday, with the role of informing readers about news coming from abroad, from France or from the Court, especially specialized in political and diplomatic affairs, it changed its title in 1762 to Gazette de France. The Gazette remained silent on the events of the Revolution and was published daily from 1 May 1792. The tone of the articles in the Gazette, whose political orientation changed according to the regimes in place, remained impartial and very prudent. Bonapartist under the First Empire, it will assert itself openly royalist during the Restoration. This editorial line remained the core business of La Gazette, renamed La Gazette de France under the Third Republic until the publication of its last issue in 1915. Attached are the October 28 and 29, 1813 issues of the Journal de l'Empire.
