[REVOLUTION FRANÇAISE] BAILLEUL, J. C. Examen critique de l'ouvrage posthume de Mme la baronne de Staël ayant pour titre "Considérations sur les principaux événements de la Révolution française". Paris, Ant. Bailleul, 1818. 2 volumes, in-8, black half-chagrins, smooth spines, speckled edges. 396 - 484 pages. Slight spotting on the covers, wetness at the end of the second copy, some foxing. Critical review of Mme de Staël's "Considérations sur les principaux événements de la Révolution française" by Jacques Charles Bailleul, former deputy, lawyer at the Paris Parliament, then judge in Le Havre. A former member of the Convention, the Comité de Sûreté général and the Tribunat, the author is well placed to examine Mme de Staël's work from the point of view of a direct participant in the Revolution. An interesting analysis of a work that sketched the contours of a liberal interpretation of the Revolution, whose political legacy was to prove fertile. Fine ex libris from the Château des Ormes library. Good condition.
