Lettre CLXXIV (French Edition)

Hypothesis about the evolution of the littoral vegetation in the lesser Antilles, from the pre-columbian period: In the mountainous islands of Lesser Antilles, the climatic gradients, providing from the geomorphological patterns identify, nevertheless, a complex vegetal building, clearly noticeable throughout the physionomies and within the landscapes expressed by the great floristic unities, as well. Those latter, from the coast up to the higher peaks, anywhere sylvatic ecosystems are able to grow, are potential: Tropical , submountainous and tropical mountains ombrophile in the upper levels.

More titles to consider

The lower levels, where the population settled and developped the first great plantations, suffer from an important ecosystemic degradation. The initial equilibrium being annihilated because of anthropization, within this dry bioclimate area, the regression process led to the rise of an mainly littoral inconstant and dry vegetation, essentially constituated by grass, shrub and pre-sylvatic phytocenoses; the forest caracteristic units are rare, secondary and present a weak biodiversity.

However, within the littoral areas of this archipelago system, very organized or sub-climatic unities looking like the primitive referents, can be observed. The conclusion of studies upon those relic vegetation entities allowed primary a reconstitution of the vegetal carpet of the pre-comumbian littoral, secondary an understanding appreciation of the various and successionnal modalities, and thirdly the associated factorial constraints.

This La Haye edition reproduces, with several variations, the preface of the Rouen edition, but is also preceded by an 8-page advertisement that critiques the Rouen edition and highlights the advantages of the La Haye edition. A comparison of the two the Rouen and the La Haye editions leaves no room for doubt of the circulation of multiple copies of the originals by Mme de Simiane. The present La Haye edition was published by one J. Gendebien as attested by a note in the Walckenaer copy.

One finds at the end of the second volume an important catalogue of books for sale by P. Gosse actually included in the pagination and placed before the table of contents. Ellen Owen, for whom the set was bound in early 18th century red morocco, was the daughter of Sir Robert Owen, knight of Porkington and Clenneney, M. As such, it was inherited by William Owen, the son and heir of Sir Robert, who lived until He was succeeded by his eldest daughter Margaret.

The set then passed by descent through the 5 subsequent Barons Harlech until the dispersal of the library in Most of her letters, celebrated for their wit and vividness, were addressed to her daughter.

She is revered in France as one of the great icons of French literature. Marie de Rabutin-Chantal was born in the fashionable Place des Vosges, Paris, to an old and distinguished family from Burgundy.

His wife did not survive him by many years, and Marie was left an orphan at the age of seven. She then passed into the care of her maternal grandparents. She received a good education in his care and often referred to him in her correspondence as "le Bien Bon" [the very good]. Instead, she devoted herself to her children. She spent most of in retirement at Les Rochers, but returned to Paris that November. Thereafter, she divided her time between the city and the countryside. However, in , she quarrelled with him.

The couple intended to live in Paris, but Grignan was soon appointed as lieutenant governor of Provence, necessitating that they live there. Therefore, she knew that her letters were semi-public documents and crafted them accordingly. For the first time she was seriously ill and did not thoroughly recover until she had visited Vichy. The letters depicting life at this 17th-century spa are among her best.

The trial and execution of Madame de Brinvilliers took place that same year. This event figures in the letters. She returned to Provence in October On 17 March , she had the grief of losing La Rochefoucauld, the most eminent and one of her closest friends. The proportion of letters that we have for the decade is much smaller than that which represents the decade preceding it.

In , the whole family was greatly excited by the first campaign of the young marquis de Grignan, Mme de Grignan's only son, who was sent splendidly equipped to the siege of Philippsburg. In , she wrote positively of the preacher Antoine Anselme. The year saw the loss of two of her oldest friends: There was a family connection between these two great writers: Another friend almost as intimate, Mme de Lavardin, followed in Her daughter was not present during her illness.

A clandestine edition, containing twenty-eight letters or portions of letters, was published in , followed by two others the next year.

Working with the editor Denis-Marius Perrin of Aix-en-Provence, she published letters in , then letters in The letters were selected according to Mme de Simiane's instructions: The remaining letters were often rewritten in accordance with the style of the day. This raises a question of the letters' authenticity. Of the 1, known letters, only 15 percent are signed, the others having been destroyed soon after they were read. These accounted for about half of the letters to Mme de Grignan. They are paginated as follows:
