HUGO, Victor (1802-1885)
Châtiments. Genève et New-York [Bruxellles] : s.n. [Henri Samuel], 1853.
Édition originale non expurgée. Deux éditions différentes furent publiées en novembre 1853 : une édition in-16 tronquée chez Henri Samuel à Bruxelles, et une édition in-32 présentant le texte complet avec la fausse adresse "Genève et New-York". "Quoique, par convention, la mise en vente de l'in-16 ait eu lieu avant l'autre, cette édition n'est pas l'originale. [...] La mise en vente de l'expurgée avant l'autre, effectuée dans un but commercial, ne pouvait entraver la vente de l'intégrale ; elle devait au contraire la favoriser en surexcitant la curiosité des lecteurs par ses lignes de points énigmatiques." (Michaux, Essais bibliographiques concernant les œuvres de Victor Hugo, parues pendant l'exil, pp. 22-23). Vicaire, IV, col. 312 ; Carteret, I, p. 415.

In-32 (111 x 69 mm). Second tirage, avec la faute "abhoréés" corrigée p. 150. Reliure signée Dubois-D'Enghien-Dooms : maroquin aubergine, rosace dorée au centre des plats, dos à nerfs orné de filets et fleurons dorés, tête dorée, roulette intérieure dorée. Étui.

First complete edition.
