Description
1729 History of CHINA & Ancient Music Illustrated MAPS Chinese Literature French



Throughout the 17th- and 18th-centuries, there was an abundance of French educational societies that were influential both in and outside of France. One of the more remarkable societies was the Académie des Inscriptions et Belles-Lettres, which was best known for its impressive and enormous set of historical articles.



This volume from the first edition of ‘Histoire’ is easily the most desirable from the set. It includes information on the Chinese language and history, Chinese literature, and interesting articles on ancient music and the development of western music. Note the remarkable musical examples and folding engravings including a folding map of the Middle East!
