CELLIÈRES (Laurent de): Ad Excellentissimum dominum D. De Vivonne marescallum [...] . Epistola gratulatoria post relatam de hostili Classe in Panormitano sinu insignem victoriam. (Followed by). Motto with a sonnet to Monseigneur le maréchal de Vivonne vice-roy de Sicile, after the glorious expedition to Palermo, where this marshal burned a large number of ships, galleys, & other bastimens of the enemy army on June 2, 1676. S.l.n.d. [1676]. One fascicle. 23.5 by 35.5 cm. 3 pages. Modern Bradel-style boards, brown titles. Perfect condition of binding, very good condition inside (traces of old folds). Long autograph letter from the author: "Pour Monsieur De Bauchamp demeurant à la rüe de la Dorade en Avignon, par son très humble et très obéissant serviteur, De Cellières". Very rare first edition. The CCFr. lists only one copy (B.M. de Lyon); the Worldcat lists no other; unknown to De Backer and Sommervogel. Jesuit Father Laurent de Cellières, born in 1630 in Saint-Didier-la-Seauve (Haute-Loire), entered the novitiate in 1645. For 22 years, he taught grammar, humanities, rhetoric, philosophy and mathematics. He died [...] between 1721 and 1726. These two texts glorify the Maréchal de Vivonne, who on June 2, 1676, partially destroyed the Spanish-Dutch fleet anchored off Palermo.
