Title

Histoire des oracles

Description

Fontenelle’s controversial work was available for sale in the shop of Marie-Noëlle Houart, the widow of Claude Blageart. She sold her two presses in the spring of 1686 and passed away at the age of 72 shortly thereafter. The fact that the shop is still listed under her name one year later hints that she was well-known in Parisian circles.
