[AUGEARD, Mathieu (1673-1751)] Arrests notables des differens tribunaux sur plusieurs questions importantes de Droit Civil, de Coutume, de Discipline ecclésiastique & et de Droit public. Paris : Michel Guignard & Claude Robustel, 1710-1718.

Document historique et juridique de premier ordre, celui-ci l’exemplaire de dédicace avec le super-libris de l’abbé Bignon, bibliothécaire du roi.
Nommé avocat au Parlement de Paris en 1703, Mathieu Augeard est considéré comme l’un des plus grands et plus fiables arrêtistes français. Ses arrests notables des tribunaux de France poursuivent le travail engagé dès 1676 avec le Journal du Palais, publié par Gabriel Guéret et Claude Blondeau, qui offrit au public parisien le premier essai de périodique spécialisé et quasi professionnel, à travers une sélection de décisions accompagnées de commentaires – soit un précieux matériau informatif, destiné aussi à l’étude des jeunes gens. Le présent exemplaire est celui du prédicateur et bibliothécaire du roi Jean-Paul Bignon (1662 – 1743), auquel l’ouvrage est dédié et dont l’épître du vol. I rédigé par Augeard fait un vibrant éloge.

3 vol. in-4 (253 x 197 mm). Culs-de-lampe, bandeaux et lettrines. Reliure de l’époque en maroquin rouge, triple filet en encadrement des plats, frappés au centre de l’ex-libris de Jean-Paul Bignon (« Bibliothec Bignon »), dos à nerfs ornés et frappés sur 4 caissons des deux « B » rappelant la provenance de l’ouvrage, roulette sur les coupes et en encadrement des doublures, tranches dorées. Doublure et garde de papier marbré au t. 2. 2 mentions manuscrites en regard de la page de titre du t. 1 : 1. à l’encre, l’ex-dono « Souvenir offert à son neveu [Cl. ?] Levillain professeur à l’école de droit de Bordeaux par son oncle. 1er avril 1899 » (signature non identifiée) » ; 2. sous la première, au crayon, le nom « Jean Augeard » (descendant de l’auteur ?).

Provenance : Jean-Paul Bignon (ex-libris), Jacques Vieillard (ex-libris)

An important historical and judicial artefact, this one the presentation copy of Jean-Paul Bignon, in charge of the royal library.
