In August 1790, riots broke out in Toulon. Monier de Castellet, who had retired to his estate, went to Toulon on family business on August 11, 1790. Recognized by the crowd at the entrance to the town, he was threatened and booed, but escaped the mob, who wanted to hang him, thanks to the intervention of the mayor and soldiers from the Dauphiné and Barrois regiments, as well as naval troops, who rescued him 3 times from the hands of the people. By deliberation of the Directoire du département du Var, a medal was struck and awarded to those who "by their generous efforts" saved the life of a citizen. The die was made by Sieur Tassin, who received 180 Livres for his work. The Nation seized the Val d'Ardène in 1794 as émigré property, and Monier de Castellet having fled to Spain, the estate was sold as Bien National on 26 Mexidor An VI.

RIVAROL (Antoine, comte de). Discours préliminaire du Nouveau dictionnaire de la langue française. - On the universality of the French language. Subject proposed by the Berlin Academy in 1783. Paris, Cocheris, An cinquième de la République [1797]. 2 works in one volume, in-4, red half-maroquin, spine decorated with flowered caissons, gilt numeral on tail, gilt head (Binding from the second half of the 19th century). Antoine de Rivarol (1753-1801), one of the most brilliant minds of his time and a leading figure in the counter-revolution, was awarded the Berlin Prize in 1783 for his essay on the Universality of the French language, composed "entirely to the glory of France and the French language" (En français dans le texte, no. 177) and printed the following year. The Discours préliminaire au nouveau Dictionnaire de la langue française is here dated to the original, published in Hamburg by Fauche; it was banned from sale in France because it contained fierce criticism of the revolutionary period: What is this mysterious, immense chariot, whose innumerable wheels go in all directions, laden with scaffolds, severed heads and broken scepters? It's the chariot of revolution... And those hideous, ragged people, with their haggard eyes and bloody arms, crowding around the chariot? These are the people of the revolution (pp. 232-233). An interesting copy that belonged to Hippolyte Cocheris (1829-1882), curator at the Mazarine and descendant of the printer and publisher Cocheris; bound in his cipher and bearing his engraved bookplate, the copy is enriched with 4 documents, mounted at the head on tabs: - an autograph bill signed by Rivarol to Cocheris: Je n'ai encore rien terminé avec les libraires, & je suis persécuté de la bonne manière, je n'ai de repos ni le jour ni la nuit... - a copy of n°1829 of the periodical Le Républicain français (January 8, 1798) in which we read: Le citoyen Cocheris, libraire, cloître Saint-Benoît, a été arrêté il y a quelques jours. He is accused of having received from his correspondents Rivarol's work entitled: Discours sur les langues en général [...]. Rivarol has interspersed some pages that are probably very violent against the French Revolution. The arrest of Cocheris was the result... - a copy of n°930 of the periodical La Sentinelle (21 nivôse an VI), in which we learn that the bookseller Cocheris is under arrest, for having published a speech by Rivarol, on languages, in which this émigré indulges in all his bitterness against the French revolution... - a copy of n°980 of the periodical La Sentinelle (13 ventôse an VI), giving the outcome of this affair: The bookseller Cocheris [...] has just been acquitted and set free [...] he spent two months in prison; during his detention, his wife died of worry, and without the help of his friends, his large family would have died of misery. Verse work deleting a few words and repairs to both issues of La Sentinelle. Missing lower corner of last four leaves.

COCOTTE 1900 - Yèle de GUESTRE(A Belle Epoque personality, wife of Baron Pichon Goubert de Guestre, she was often the talk of the town. Her name can be found in the wake of demi-mondaines, principally Valdesse de La Bigne, with whom she stayed not only at her Ville-d'Avray estate, Le Lys Rouge, but also at her Villa des Aigles in Monte-Carlo, suggesting that they were "tender friends": the famous 1594 portrait of Gabrielle d'Estrée and one of her sisters (a very lesbian subject!) was purchased from her estate in 1937) / Autograph letter signed, 4 p in-8, headed "Le Lys Rouge (Ville d'Avray)" [the property of the demi-mondaine Valtesse de La Bigne], June 27, 1905 (postmark on preserved envelope enclosed, with postage and gray wax seal with the motto "Acta non verba", "des acte et pas de mots"), to Monsieur Jakowski, at the journalLa Vie parisienne in Paris: "I have only just received, Monsieur, the charming words you wrote about me in La Vie Parisienne on June 17- I'd like to thank you most sincerely for them -Le Cygne de Bruges!... what a lovely title for a novel! as long as a dishonest writer doesn't take it from you! I'm flattered, yes very flattered, by this euphoric appellation - but confused because I don't deserve it -I must give back to Paris what belongs to Paris - alas! I'm a Parisian - what an ugly word!I know Bruges - too little - but enough to love it infinitely - You have evoked in me very pretty memories - in an instant I saw again through you the dead city - its canals, its swans and its primitives - The Memlings passed before my eyes [evocation of the works of the primitive painter Hans Memling] - all this I owe to you - thank you again Sir and all my sympathetic compliments".
