William Makepeace THACKERAY Le livre des snobs

William Makepeace THACKERAY

Le livre des snobs

Librairie de L. Hachette, Paris 1867 (S.d), In-12 (11,5x18,2cm), 248pp., relié.


Original French edition, rare, translated by George Guiffrey.
Vintage half calf binding. Smooth back decorated with casters and nets. Dark green calf title label. Initial K in a box. Friction on the splats. Blunt and folded corners. Beautiful copy.
pseudonymic work whose main character is called Snob. So these are the confessions or memories of a snob. The Book of Snobs has largely contributed to give the word snob the meaning it has today and to clarify the concept; the publication of the work establishing, according to the historian of ideas Frédéric Rouvillois, "the baptismal act of snobbery".
