LE BEAU, Charles (1701-1778). Histoire du Bas-Empire. Paris: Ledoux et Tenré, 1819-20.

Finely bound copy of Le Beau’s history of the Byzantine empire, with distinguished provenance. Le Beau was professor of Latin eloquence at the Collège de France and perpetual secretary of the Académie royale des inscriptions et belles-lettres. His Histoire du Bas-Empire, first published in 1756-79 and reissued several times, was esteemed because of the faithful resume it provided of the major Byzantine historians.

Thirteen volumes, octavo (203 x 127mm). Occasional light spotting and toning. Contemporary French red straight-grained morocco gilt by Simier, all edges gilt, with the arms of Marie Anunciade Caroline Bonaparte (extremities lightly rubbed). Provenance: Marie Anunciade Caroline Bonaparte (1782-1839; binding) – René de Faucigny-Lucinge (1841-1911; bookplate) – Charles Bourlon de Rouvre (1850-1924; bookplate).
