‎The uncommon 4to-edition of Boileau-Despreaux’s Oeuvres. Nicolas Boileau (1636-1711), often simply known as Boileau, achieved acclaim as a distinguished French poet and critic in the 17th century. Initially educated at the College of Beauvais with intentions of pursuing a clerical path, he eventually shifted his focus from theology to law to fulfill his father's wishes. Boileau's literary journey commenced with the publication of his first satirical poem, ""Adieux d'un poète à la ville de Paris,"" at the age of 25. Subsequently, he released six more satires, including notable works like ""Les embarras de Paris,"" ""La satire à Molière,"" and ""Le repas ridicule."" In these satires, Boileau not only parodied and critiqued figures such as Cotin, Chapelain, and Le Voyer but also played a pivotal role in refining the practical aspects of the French language. Notably, these satires marked the introduction of systematic literary criticism in France, focusing on art's merits rather than being driven by envy or anger. Tchemerzine II, 293Brunet 1, 1058‎
