Denis DIDEROT

Le Fils Naturel, Ou Les Preuves De La Vertu, Comédie En Cinq Actes, Et En Prose

S.n. [Prault & fils], à Amsterdam [Paris] 1757, in-8 (12x20cm), jx (1) 11-299p., relié.


First edition, rare. Tchemerzine IV, 447 Full Sheepskin marbled time. Smooth spine decorated. Part of title in red morocco. Caps threadbare. A dull corner. Pretty good copy. The play was a revolution at its first performance, the theater then entered a totally new era, not only from an aesthetic point of view and literary but also political and social. Diderot developed his theory of a theater based on natural feelings and real action in the next room interviews. They called it the birth of bourgeois drama. Fans will appreciate Diderot paticulièrement the preface and interviews where we find the style and shape of Diderot's Dream On alembert or that of Rameau's Nephew. --- Please note that the translation in english is done automatically, we apologize if the formulas are inaccurate.
