Notes: Attribution - the STN traded in two edition of this work, (London [Geneva], 1775) and (Lausanne, 1775). It has not always been possible from STN manuscripts to isolate which transactions relate to which editions. N.B. 25 February 1775 François Grasset sent 12 copies of 'Pierre le cruel, tragèdie' to the STN, which could actually be this work, as the STN did not send out any works under the title 'Pierre le cruel', and Grasset printed 'Don Pèdre' around this time. However, there is a possibility that Grasset was refering to Belloy's 'Pierre le cruel, tragédie' (Amsterdam, 1775), and that they have been omitted from STN records.
