Description

Burgundy - FYOT DE LA MARCHE (Claude Philippe). Histoire de l'église abbatiale et collégiale de Saint Estienne de Dijon. Avec les preuves & pouillé des bénéfices dépendant de cette abbaie. Dijon, Ressayre, 1696. 2 parts in one in-folio volume, granite calf, ornate ribbed spine (period binding). Rare first edition, illustrated with a large double-page fold-out plan of the old and new town of Dijon, engraved in intaglio by Le Pautre. An important work on the history of Dijon. The author traces the origins of the foundation of the Saint-Etienne abbey back to 343, and the evangelizing role of Saint Bénigne. He recalls Saint-Etienne's precedence over all other Dijon churches, and describes the rules governing the clerical community that ran the place. It lists the abbots who were in charge of the church, and recounts the key events in their administration. The history of Saint-Étienne ends in 1695, when Claude Fyot became abbot. He was responsible for the partial reconstruction of the church, which had been destroyed by fire in 1686. This history is followed by a list of ecclesiastical benefices and rights dependent on the Saint-Etienne chapter, and their justifications. The second part of the work is a collection of transcriptions (mostly in Latin) of deeds proving the history and possessions of the abbey and chapter. A fine copy.
