Claude Prosper Jolyot de Crebillon [Crebillon fils] - L'ecumoire, Histoire Japonoise [actually Tanzai et Neadarne] - 1735, Second Edition.

London, No Publisher, 1735. Second Edition. First Impression. Hardback. A fine copy. Two volumes bound in one. Full recent calf. Rare edition of the licentious tale of Tanzai and Neadarne, Crebillon Fils was a French writer and the publication of this book in which he attacks the Papal bull Unigenitus provided him with a short stay in prison. WorldCat records a copy dated 1734 in France, with a different pagination than this, so presumably this is a second or later edition. Londres is likely inaccurate. Two plates. A lovely copy.
