LA THUILLERIE (Jean-François Juvenon, dit). Théâtre de M. de La Thuillerie, Comédien de la Troupe Royale. New edition, revised & corrected. Amsterdam, Pierre Marteau, 1745. In-12 marbled calf, ornate ribbed spine, title page in red marble, red pages (period binding). A fine copy. Uncommon. Ex-libris C. Millon de Montherlant. Son of actor François Juvenon, known as La Fleur, La Thuillerie embarked on a career in comedy at the age of sixteen, in 1666. On April 27, 1672, he married Louise-Catherine, daughter of actor Raymond Poisson, known as Belleroche. An actor with a sulphurous reputation, he played at the Hôtel de Bourgogne and was a member of the first troupe of the Comédie-Française. Under his name were performed: Crispin précepteur, comedy in one act, in verse (1679); Soliman, tragedy (1680); Hercule, tragedy (1681); Crispin bel esprit, comedy in one act, in verse (1681), but these plays were rightly attributed to Abbé Abeille, and La Thuillerie was given this epitaph: "Ici gît qui se nommait Jean, / Et croyait avoir fait Hercule et Soliman."
