rare les 4 tomes des oeuvres de GESSNER (couverture d'attente d'origine) taches de rousseurs éparses nombreuses gravures signées GIRARDET LE MIRE ect. C'est l'édition compléte parue en 1799 chez RENOUARD. Salomon Gessner (1730-1788) est un poète suisse. Considéré au XVIIIe siècle comme le nouveau Théocrite, rénovateur d'un genre idyllique usé par les fades galanteries d'un Fontenelle, son ?uvre paraît à un moment opportun. En effet, la critique commence à se lasser de ces idylles emphatiques et si peu passionnées. L'?uvre de Gessner doit être replacée dans l'environnement culturel de Zurich. Cette ville d'esprit plutôt libéral abrite notamment le jeune peintre Füssli ou le cercle littéraire de Bodmer, chantre d'un nouveau sentimentalisme. C'est à leur contact que Salomon Gessner, modeste libraire, s'essaie à la poésie. En 1754 paraît sa première ?uvre, Daphnis, suivent de près La Mort d'Abel et bien sûr les Idylles. Les traductions de celles-ci ont un succès considérable dans toute l'Europe, et, encore une fois, particulièrement en France.

In-16, 104 pp. Edition originale de cet ouvrage considéré comme précurseur du romantisme en France. Louis Ramond de Carbonnières (1755-1827) est l'un des premiers explorateurs de la haute montagne pyrénéenne et l'auteur de célèbres Observations faites dans les Pyrénées (1789), que l'on tient pour l'acte de naissance de la littérature pyrénéiste. Ses premières oeuvres font de lui un précurseur du romantisme et tout particulièrement 'Les Dernières aventures du jeune d'Olban', un drame à la Werther sur les amours malheureuses d'un jeune homme souffrant d'un coeur trop sensible. Ramond a dédicacé le livre à son ami Jakob Michael Reinhold Lenz (1751-1792), écrivain du mouvement Sturm und Drang et qui lui fait découvrir la littérature romantique allemande.
