Bruxelles: Gay et Douce, 1881 Louis Petit de Bachaumont (1690-1771), French litterateur, was of noble family and was brought up at the court of Versailles. He passed his whole life in Paris as the Centre of the salon of Madame Doublet de Persan (1677-1771), where criticism of art and literature took the form of malicious gossip. A sort of register of news was kept in a journal of the salon, which dealt largely in scandals and contained accounts of books suppressed by the censor. Bachaumont's name is commonly connected with the first volumes of this register, which was published anonymously under the title Mémoires secrets pour servir à l'histoire de la République des Lettres, but his exact share in the authorship is a matter of controversy. It was continued by Pidansat de Mairobert (1707-1779) and others, until it reached 36 volumes (1774-1779). It is of some value as a historical source, especially for prohibited literature.Avec des notes et une table bio-bibliographique publiées par Jean Gay.
