SALES (Charles-Auguste de). LePourpris historique de la Maison de Sales de Thorenc en Genevois. AAnnessy, by Jacques Clerc, 1659. Small folio, (12)-571-(one blank)-(12)pp. semi-rigid parchment; binding worn and stained with some coverwear; some wetness, wider on first few leaves, scattered foxing (period binding). First edition. To the glory of the de Sales family. Reliable sources attest to the family's ancient nobility from the thirteenth century onwards, but the author does not hesitate to trace it back to fabulous origins, evoking a Gérard de Sales who was herald to King RodolpheIII of Burgundy at the beginning of the seventeenth century. In a polemical, even quarrelsome tone, Charles-Auguste de Sales erects a monument to the glory of his family, which he ends with a eulogy of his own father, and of his uncle Saint François de Sales. The organization of the work is highly unusual, borrowing poetically from the vocabulary of surveying: family history is presented as occupying a territory of time, a "pourpris" (a term already archaic at the time, meaning fence, enclosure, place occupied by man), and the text is not divided here into "books" and "chapters" but into "toises" and "feet" measuring this "pourpris", like so many eras and periods in this history. The author, having been criticized before publication for his biases, makes a strong case for them in his preface. Charles-Auguste de Sales, who had devoted much time to copying original documents with the aim of writing a more ambitious Savoyard nobiliary, gave up this new project and passed on his papers to the historian Samuel Guichenon, who was then preparing his own Histoire généalogique de la royale Maison de Savoie. Charles-Auguste de Sales (1606-1660), nephew and successor of St. Francis de Sales to the episcopal see of Geneva in Annecy, had published several other works, including a Life of St. Francis de Sales (1634, in two versions, one Latin, the other French). An extremely rare work: only 7 copies are referenced at the CcFr, held in the municipal libraries of Annecy, Besançon, Chambéry, Grenoble, Louviers, Lyon and Moulins. Gaston Saffroy (vol.III, n°49720) has not been able to see a copy, and cites without collation the one in the Chambéry library.
