LA PÉRUSE (Jean de).

Les Œuvres. Avec quelques autres diverses Poësies de Cl. Binet. Lyon, Benoist Rigaud, 1577. 2 parts in one in-16 volume, contemporary soft vellum. Very rare second edition of the Œuvres de ce poète angoumoisin, a short-lived member of the Pléiade, who died at the age of 25. This is a reprint of the edition published in Paris in 1573 by Claude Binet. Jean Bastier de La Péruse appears like a shooting star in the constellation of poets gravitating around Ronsard. Born in the Angoulême region around 1529-1530, he arrived in Paris at an early age to study, and in 1553 joined Ronsard's circle. Then, in 1554, he went to Poitiers, where he met Jean-Antoine de Baïf, Jacques Tahureau and Guillaume Bouchet, with whom he forged a close friendship; it was there that his meteoric rise came to an end, swept away in the last months of the year by an illness. The loss of this poet was immense, as the epitaph written by Ronsard suggests: Cours donc eschevelée, & dis que La Péruse / Est mort, & qu'auiourd'huy / Le second ornement de la Tragique Muse / Est mort avecques luy (ff. 85v°-86). The edition is divided into 2 parts. The first contains the five acts of Médée - one of the first classical French tragedies, along with Jodelle's Cléopâtre - followed by some 50 poems by La Péruse: among these odes, chansons, sonnets, mignardises, elegies and étrennes, we note the Ode à un vieux blasonneur, a sonnet to Ronsard, prince des poètes françois, others to Muret, Tahureau, etc, the pieces À la Francine by De Baïf and on J. Tahureau and his Admirée, etc. Also noteworthy is Jean Boiceau de La Borderie's ode to La Péruse, fuyans de Poytiers pour la peste, in which the latter urges his friend to reassure him with his gentle poetry and tame his tragic Hidres. This part ends with the Pitoyable histoire du prince de Albanie, infortuné d'Amour, in prose. The second part, in continuous pagination, is occupied by Claude Binet's Diverses poésies, poems full of Ronsardian reminiscences: two of them deal with rustic pleasures, entitled Le Chant forestier ou le chasseur, a nine-page bucolic piece dedicated to Amadis Jamyn, and La Gaieté du printemps, to his friends, inviting them to the fields. An attractive copy in contemporary vellum. Signature in Nuper Leo ink on the title page, believed to be that of Pierre Noël de La Houssaye (1895-1966), a Blésian man of letters. Staining at beginning and end of volume. Small stain on spine. Baudrier, t. III, p. 337. - J. P. Barbier-Mueller, II-1 n°91, III n°70 and IV-1 n°41. - Viollet-le-Duc, I, pp. 206-207. - Diane Barbier-Mueller, Inventaire..., n°81 and 427.
