| Item Description: | Vol. 3, part 1 has subtitle: Likewise an original letter, in answer to M. Voltaire's objections to the authenticity of Ganganelli's letters. Vol. 3, part 2 is without subtitle. Vol. 3, parts 1 and 2 have imprint: London, Printed for T. Durham ... and G. Kearsley, 1777. "Preface by Mr. Caraccioli": v. 1, p. [lvii]-lxiv. "An original letter in answer to M. Voltaire's objections to the authenticity of Ganganelli's letters": v. 3, pt. 2, p. [457]-473. The genuineness of the collection has been questioned by several authorities (Lowndes, Barbier, Vacant et Mangenot, etc.) the authorship being attributed to L.A. de Caraccioli. That it is in substance a genuine collection, though some of the letters are spurious, is affirmed by Alfred von Reumont in his "Gangenelli ... seine Briefe und seine Zeit, 1847." |
