LHOMOND,Ch.F. - Élémens de la grammaire latine, à l'usage des colléges. Par Lhomond, professeur émérite en la ci-devant Université de Paris. 16e édition.
Paris, De l'Imprimerie de J.-P. Jacob, à la librairie Économique, rue de la Harpe, ancien Collége d'Harcourt, no. 94, 1807. 12mo. 216,4 p. Vellum over boards. 17 cm (Details: The binder has covered the boards of this book with two strips of vellum of an old contract, or charter. The handwriting on it is cursive and illegible for a layman, but 6 signatures are clearly visible, 2 first names are legible, of one 'Charles' and 'Jacques') (Condition: After the titlepage, and before the beginning of the first chapter, 4 pages are missing. Probably a praefatio, or perhaps the 4 pages which have been bound at the end of the book. These 4 pages contain a stocklist of the titles available at the 'Librarie économique'. Vellum soiled. Well read. On some pages marginal numbers in pencil. Paper yellowing) (Note: Numerous editions of this Latin grammar were published in France during the 19th century. The 'abbé' Charles-François Lhomond, 1727-1794, was 20 years 'régent de sixième' at the College of Cardinal Lemoine. After his retirement he dedicated himself to the writing of schoolbooks. His 'Élémens de la grammaire latine' was first published in 1780. Since 1789 he is one of the most reprinted and revised school authors in France. There are 166 (plus one more at least) editions of his Latin works. (A. Chopin, 'Les manuels scolaires en France de 1789 à nos jours, 3: Les manuels de latin', Paris, 1988) We found no copy of this 1807 edition in Chopin, nor did we find one in KVK (Karlsruher Virtueller Katalog). So this schoolbook must be rare) (Photographs on request)
