Overview

Furetieriana Ou Les Bons Mots Et Les Remarques D'histoire, De Morale, De Critique, De Plaisanteries, Et D'Ã(c)rudition, De Mr. Furetiere is a collection of witty remarks, historical anecdotes, moral observations, and critical insights attributed to Antoine Furetière, a prominent 17th-century French scholar and writer. Published posthumously and augmented in this edition with the remarks of Pierre Ribou, the work offers a fascinating glimpse into the intellectual and social life of the period. Furetière, known for his contributions to lexicography and his contentious relationship with the AcadÃ(c)mie Française, reveals his sharp wit and erudition through these collected bons mots. This edition preserves the original French text, making it an invaluable resource for scholars and enthusiasts of French literature, history, and linguistics. The inclusion of Ribou's commentary enhances the reader's understanding of the context and nuances of Furetière's observations.
