Nantes - [SAVAGNER (François-Charles-Frédéric-Auguste)]. Lettre à Monsieur le Ministre de l'instruction publique sur les ouvrages imprimés relatifs à l'histoire de la ville de Nantes. [MANUSCRIT]. Sl, sd (June 1835). In-folio, title, 363 ff. in medium and very legible handwriting on the recto (approx. 20-25 lines per page), with large left margin half red basane with corners, spine with ornate faux-nerfs (period binding). Covers a little rubbed, two corners damaged, but a good copy. A very important manuscript, of which there is no printed version, but of which another copy is in the collections of the Bibliothèque municipale de Nantes: given by the author to Charles Durozoir, it was passed on by the latter to the Bibliothèque. In 1836, Auguste Savagner (1808-1849) was the first editor of the manuscript on "L'Histoire de Nantes" left by Abbé Nicolas Travers, whose prospectus he encloses at the end of his study. Combined with the mention of his arrival in Nantes in December 1834 in the body of the letter, this allows us to date the composition of the manuscript no later than 1835 (it is even dated June on folio 335). After a brief address to the Minister, the author gives a detailed and intelligently critical review of a good Nantes bibliography (of what was available in the early 19th century), copies of which have been consulted at the Bibliothèque municipale (detailed list on request.) LINKED WITH: Histoire civile, politique et religieuse de la ville et du comté de Nantes, by Abbé Travers, printed from the original manuscript in the Bibliothèque publique de Nantes. Prospectus. Nantes, Imprimerie de Forest, s.d., [6] ff. n. ch. in-4 (with chapter summaries). Handwritten bookplate of Arthur Le Moyne de La Borderie (1827-1901), the father of modern Breton historiography, then collection of Paul de Berthou (1859-1933), also a chartist and Breton scholar.
