Lisboa: João Nunes Esteves, 1822. 8vo. 209p. Marbled boards, vellum-backed; minor stains on final three leaves. Moral philosopher, theologian and poet, Abailard was one of the most controversial teachers of the 12th century.

There are eight letters in all - though the authenticity of at least some parts of the text is doubtful. Originally written in Latin, they were frequently translated. This edition not in NUC.
