描述

书名直译：性爱艺术-18世纪法国情色插图精选。法语版，第1册253页，第2册262页，道林纸精印。无印刷年代，推测80年代或以前出版。收录18-19世纪欧洲情色小说版画插图1000幅以上。每册封面、封底、书角、书脊均有不同程度磨损。追求完美品相者慎重购买。

影印18世纪的版本， L’Academie des dames是欧洲语言中最早的色情文本之一。福克森在出版时写下了它的权力，并指出：“情节不断提供新的冲击…因为母亲和丈夫等稳定的人物被披露为具有高度不规则的关系…作为虚假和虚伪证明的[社会和文化]，本书是出色的无政府主义的表现”。Pia曾将这个罕见的阿姆斯特丹版本与法语版混为一谈，引起了参考书目间的混乱。标注作者为de Hooghe的版画实际上是Delcroche的原创，他描绘了1770年代和1780年代的一些经典作品。

Academie des dames于1660年首次出版，谎称作者是里斯本宫廷的伴娘Sigea，并虚称曾由荷兰人文学家Johannes Meursius翻译成拉丁文。这段历史简直就是小说。实际本书由格勒诺布尔的历史学家和律师Nicolas Chorier撰写，后者曾担任路易十四国王的检察官。起初以手稿形式传播，继而以地下出版物的形式非公开发行，鉴于本书的非法性质，版权页关于出版年代的记录都是虚假的。

情色艺术（成人/俚语）

米歇尔·福柯（Michel Foucault）在 “性生活史”（1978年）中的术语，将东方对性的看法视为一种艺术形式，区别于西方的实验室和统计分析方法，他将其称为性科学。同义词：快乐的艺术。

A HANDSOME 18TH-CENTURY EDITION, FINELY BOUND BY LORTIC AND WITH STRONG IMPRESSIONS OF THE PRINTS. L’Academie des dames is among the earliest erotic texts in a European language. Foxon, writing of its power at the time of publication, notes: ‘the plot continually provides new shocks… as stable figures such as mothers and husbands are disclosed as having highly irregular relationships… as a demonstration of the falsity and hypocrisy of [social and cultural] appearances it is brilliantly anarchistic’. Pia confused this rare Amsterdam edition with the first French translation, which caused a muddle among bibliographers. The prints, sometimes attributed to de Hooghe are actually by Delcroche, who illustrated a number of classics in the 1770s and 1780s,.

The Academie des dames was first published about 1660, spuriously attributed to Sigea, a maid of honor in the court of Lisbon, and purportedly translated into Latin by Johannes Meursius, a Dutch humanist scholar of some note. This history was a complete fiction; the work was penned by Nicolas Chorier, a historian and lawyer in Grenoble, who served as a prosecutor for King Louis XIV. It was circulated in manuscript as a libertine text, and was printed several times, always (because of its illicit nature) under false imprints.
