Édition originale.

Les deux muses, mère et fille, recevaient à Poitiers l’élite de la société littéraire. Les Œuvres, nourries de l’exemple ronsardien, renferme cent neuf pièces de genres variés. Au titre, la marque parisienne des Angeliers est en quelque sorte une consécration de leur renommée. On ne dénombre que sept mille exemplaires du recueil conservés dans les bibliothèques publiques.



La complicité entre la mère et sa fille se ressent dans plusieurs des textes de l'édition, dont la « Chanson des Amazones » écrite à la première personne du pluriel, les poétesses se comparant aux guerrières mythologiques et à leurs combats : « Nous faisons la guerre/Aux Rois de la terre/Bravant les plus glorieux,/Par notre prudence/Et notre vaillance ».

J. P. Barbier-Mueller, MBP, IV-5, 54 ; Brunet, IV, 1342. N. Ducimetière, Mignonne…, 72 ; Diane Barbier-Mueller, Inventaire…, 211 ; Tchemerzine, II, 908a ; Balsamo-Simonin, Abel L’Angelier , n° 26 ; FVB - 1565b.



In-4 (210 x 140 mm). Reliure signée Capé : chagrin noir, encadrement de double filet à froid, dos à nerf orné du titre, du lieu et de la date de l’édition en lettres dorées, tranches dorées (coiffes et charnière frottées, déchirure sans atteinte au coin inférieur droit du feuillet Siii, quelques traces de mouillure).
