MAZARIN, Jules (1602-1661), Cardinal. -- [Gabriel NAUDÉ (1600-1653)]. Ivgement de tout de qui a esté imprimé contre le Cardinal Mazarin, depuis le sixiéme Ianuier, iusques à la Declaration du premier Avril mil six cens quarante-neuf. [Paris: 1650].
4o (260 x 192 mm). (Title lightly dustsoiled at edges.) Contemporary French red morocco, triple gilt-fillet panels on sides, a floral tool at the corners, spine gilt in compartments, edges gilt (pale dampstain at lower corner of upper cover, minor rubbing to extremities). Provenance: Méon (note on flyleaf); René de Galard-Brassac Béarn (bookplate with ink signature).
Second edition of the famous "Mascurat," adding over 200 pages to the text. Naudé was a physician, but is better known for his political writings than for his other works. He was appointed librarian to Cardinal Bagni at Rome, and afterwards to Cardinal Mazarin at Paris. Naudé defends Mazarin in this work against the mass of Mazarinades which were published against the Cardinal. The book is in the form of a dialogue between the librarian Saint-Ange and the printer Mascurat (Naudé) and discusses the private and political life of Mazarin. Brunet discusses this, the Méon, copy: "Cet ouvrage, rempli d'érudition, est connu sous le nom de Mascurat, l'un des interlocuteurs que Naudé introduit dans ses dialogues...On avait joint à ce dernier exemplaire [this copy] une table formant 4 pages, dressée par l'abbé de Saint-Léger, pour l'exemplaire de la bibliothèque Sainte-Geneviève, et imprimée à son insu par les soins de Méon, lequel a omis plusieurs articles de l'original" (Brunet IV:22). BMC/STC French Books 1601-1700 p. 391; Catalogue de l'Histoire de France II p. 3; Moreau 1769.
