Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from M'moires Et Journal In'dit du Marquis d'Argenson, Vol. 1: Ministre des Affaires trang'res Sous Louis XV
Il existe dans un d'pt public la biblioth'que du Louvre, de volumineux dossiers renfermant, dans le cours de plus de vingt ann'es de sa.'vie, les pens'es quotidiennes et les notes fugitives du marquis d'argenson. Il semble avoir pris plaisir y consigner ses moindres imaginations, les mouvemens symptomatiques de son cer veau, les fluctuations de son esprit, les r'veries passag'res de son me. C'est une confession journali're 'crite avec toute franchise, parlant de ses pens'es beaucoup plus que de ses actes, dont il est peine fait mention.
