‎ "Statuts de la Société du Cercle des Vinaigres du Haut-Douro". Cet ouvrage satirique établit les statuts d'une société afin de tourner en ridicule les débats autour du commerce du vin de Porto. Les privilèges de la célèbre compagnie "Real Companhia Geral da Agricultura das Vinhas do Alto Douro", qui est chargée de réglementer les vins du Haut-Douro, sont à cette époque contestés et le monopole du commerce du vin suscite de nombreuses polémiques. Ici, le vinaigre - c'est à dire le mauvais vin ou le vin frelaté - est traité avec toute la solennité réservée habituellement aux grands vins de Porto. On lit "Segunda ediçao" , sur la page de titre, mais il s'agit sans aucun doute de la première édition. L'autre édition connue porte : "Impresso no Porto no presente anno na Typografia a' Praça de S. Thereza N? 13. Reimpresso em Lisboa na Typografia Maigrense. Anno de 1822." Bel exemplaire, tel que paru, dans sa charmante couverture en papier dominoté. /// In-4 de 136 pp. Broché, couverture en papier dominoté de l'époque. //// Bylaws of the Upper Douro Vinegar Society. This satirical work sets forth the bylaws of a society in order to ridicule the debates surrounding the Port wine trade. The privileges of the famous Real Companhia Geral da Agricultura das Vinhas do Alto Douro, which was responsible for regulating wines from the Upper Douro, were being challenged at the time, and the monopoly on the wine trade was the source of much controversy. Here, vinegarthat is, bad wine or adulterated wineis treated with all the solemnity usually reserved for fine Port wines. The title page reads Segunda ediçao, but this is undoubtedly the first edition. The other known edition bears the inscription: Impresso no Porto no presente anno na Typografia a Praça de S. Thereza N? 13. Reimpresso em Lisboa na Typografia Maigrense. Anno de 1822. A fine copy, as published, in its charming domino-patterned paper cover. Worldcat gives 3 copies of any edition in USA, whom one at least is incomplete (Newberry Library - University of California, Davis - Harvard University) /// PLUS DE PHOTOS SUR WWW.LATUDE.NET‎
