Burette, Théodose. Illustrated by Jules David.
Histoire de France depuis l'établissement des Francs dans la Gaule jusqu'en 1830, I-II. [TWO VOLUMES].
Bruxelles, Société Belge; Hauman, 1842. Hardcover. Two volumes. Crown quarto. Pp. 629; 648. Half-title. Engraved frontispiece with tissue guard. Plus a total of 500 engravings after Jules David, large number of which are additional plates printed separately on different paper and bound in. Elaborate illustrated head- and tail-pieces and initials. Chronology. HARDCOVER, uniformly bound in contemporary polished calf and marbled boards, spines with gilt morocco labels; bookplate inside cover, short split at foot of one spine and a contemporary shelf ticket, plates are spotted due to different paper quality. A handsome set. ~ This uncommon edition was published in Brussels simultaneously with the Paris edition. In the mid 19th century the national campaign for literacy and historical knowledge in France mandated an increasing reliance on illustrated texts. Théodose Burette's "Histoire de France" is a fine example for enabling the past to "speak for itself" through the union of the text with more than 500 illustrations by Jules David, "that other historian, the illustrator". Burettes and David's groundbreaking work would influence historical narration and illustration for the next thirty years, to the "histoires populaires" of Henri Martin and Victor Duruy in the Second Empire.
