Notes: Attribution - Most copies sourced from Dufour and Roux, who printed the work several times. Fauche-Borel Catalogue (1787) gives (Maestricht, 1777) and (Hollande, 1777) editions, both 2 volumes in-12°. STN also sourced some copies from Avignon in 1787, which were probably another edition. It has not always been possible from STN manuscripts to isolate which transactions relate to which editions.
