DES ESCUTEAUX, Nicolas - Amours diverses. Divided into four - Lot 278
DES ESCUTEAUX, Nicolas - Amours diverses. Divided into four Histories. Rouen, Jean du Bosc, 1613. In-12, 671 pp. pl. 18th c. green morocco, gilt garland on boards, smooth spine grotesquely decorated, gilt tr. LEVER 57. Brings together four previously published novels: Les Amours de Filiris et Isolia (1601) - Les Amours de Clarimond et Antonide (1602) - Histoire de Clidamant et de Marilinde (1603) - Les Adventureuses fortunes d'Ipsilis et Alixee (1601). Des Escuteaux was a Poitou gentleman. Like his contemporary Antoine de Nervèze, he enjoyed immense success with his sentimental novels. His tales, which combine gallantry with warlike exploits, and the story of a shipwreck followed by a robinsonnade (Histoire de Clidamant), served as models for the declarations of contemporary lovers.
