(EVRARD DE TREMAUGON) - SOMNIUM VIRIDARII. (The Dream of the Orchard Keeper). Paris, Jacques Pouchin for Galliot du Pré, (1516). In-4°, 132-[4 (table of contents)] leaves, half sheepskin (19th-century binding). First Latin edition of this collection on temporal and ecclesiastical power, composed in the form of dialogues between a cleric and a knight. Commissioned by Charles V in 1376, it is attributed to Evrart de Trémaugon, who died in 1386. The work was highly sought after by supporters of the liberties of the Gallican Church, and the author, in speaking out against the actions of the Roman Curia, does not spare the despotism of the princes. Gothic type in two columns with numerous initials on a perforated background. Split hinges, small vertical galleries. Old handwritten notes. The title page and the first three flyleaves are missing. (Moreau, Inventory II, 1480) (USTC, 181769, 4 copies).
