Description

Description from Bibliothèque nationale de France (opens in a new tab)

Diables, bon anges, fées, elfes, follets et lutins, esprits familiers, possédés et ensorcelés, revenants, lamies, lémures, larves, vampires, prodiges et sortilèges, animaux parlants, présages de guerre, de naissance, de morts, etc. Réédition avec recomposition de l'édition de 1886. Paul Lacroix (1806-1884), plus connu sous les pseudonymes de P.L. Jacob ou du bibliophile Jacob a été l'un des plus grands érudits Français du XIXe. Curieux et infatigable travailleur il toucha à tous les domaines et nous laisse une somme incroyable d'écrits. M. Paul Lacroix a tant écrit, traduit, annoté, compilé, arrangé, édité un peu partout, que la liste complète de ses productions diverses est presque impossible à dresser. L'histoire de France, l'études des moeurs et croyances étaient ses domaines favoris. Il a été de surcroit un grand collectionneur de livres rares et de belles éditions. D'où son surnom de bibliophile Jacob.
