Reunion of three 18th-century works on the Bastille. [LE TELLIER (Louis)]: Le triomphe des Parisiens by the author of Le Fanal. [Paris], Cressonnier, s.d. [1789]. One volume. 12 by 19.5 cm. 6 pages. Modern bradel boards. First edition. Conlon 89: 9597; Tourneux 1119; Martin et Walter 21290; CCFr. locates only the 3 copies in the B.N.F., Conlon lists another in the B.M. du Mans. This singular brochure, in which the author predicts that the storming of the Bastille will trigger an economic crisis in Paris, is very famous thanks to Camille Desmoulins' denunciation of it in his Discours de la lanterne aux Parisiens (pp. 30-39). "It remains to warn you against the venom of some motions made in the National Assembly, & against some writings circulating in the capital. Among these dangerous pamphlets, there is a rather piquant one, entitled Le Triomphe des Parisiens..." LINGUET (Simon-Nicolas-Henri): Mémoires sur la Bastille, et la détention de l'auteur dans ce château royal, depuis le 27 septembre 1780, jusqu'au 19 mai 1782. London, T. Spilsbury, 1783. One volume. 13.5 by 21 cm. 174 pages + 1 added frontispiece. Modern bradel boards, ex. untrimmed. Small stain in margin of last leaf. This edition does not include a frontispiece (cf. Tourneux). The one in this copy has been added. Published the same year as the original. Tourneux 12318 D. And Avis aux bons citoyens, touchant la grande conjuration des aristocrates. S.l.n.d. [1789]. Un fascicule. 11 by 18.5 cm. 7 pages. Modern bradel boards. First edition. Conlon 89: 771; Tourneux 1188. One of the patriot party's propaganda brochures, published a few days after the storming of the Bastille. It justified the storming of the Bastille a posteriori by the certainty that the troops concentrated around Paris would intervene to suppress the revolution.
