Un point curieux des moeurs privées de la Grèce
Athènes [Brussels] (1871).
Soft cover. Item #5266
A sympathetic and rare tract on the question of paederasty in ancient Greece, and almost the only printed document referring to the rare edition of Alcibiade fanciullo a scola. The edition is not to be found in the Bibliothèque Nationale's "Enfer." An earlier edition in 1861 was immediately condemned to destruction “as containing outrages against public morality and good morals.” One of 150 copies, this copy unnumbered. Very good in original marbled wrappers, tipped into plain white wrappers, custom slipcase.
Price: $350.00
