Description

(1529) ALEXIS (Guillaume). LE GRANT BLAZON DES FAUSSES AMOURS. Composed by Brother Guillaume Alexis, religious of Lyre and prior of Bussi. Lyon, Claude Nourry dit le Prince, May 6, 1529. In-16 of 39-1bl. leaves, ochre morocco, triple gilt fillet with small iron in the corners, ornate spine, fillet and thin interior roulette, gilt edges (Koehler). Very rare edition of this facétie first published in 1486. Of all the works in verse written in the last quarter of the 15th century, none was more successful than Grant Blazon. This success is attested by over 25 editions printed between the date of the original and the very beginning of the 17th century. This blazon of false loves is a dialogue between a monk and a gentleman; the latter supports the party of love, of which the monk or author declares himself the opponent: following 10 leaves entitled: "S'ensuyvent les Ditz non notables Et speculez dung très rude engin Tant en veritez quen fables Composez par Maistre Jehan Drouin". Copy in a fine binding by Koehler, from the libraries of Coste (1854, no. 768) and Prince Alexander Galitzine, with his stamp in blue ink. Copy a little short at the head. Spine and edges faded. (Bechtel A-101) (Baudrier XII, 143) (USTC 11060, 2 copies) (Brunet I, 143) (Gay II, 420).
