I have often said that just as the French revolution, for instance, understood itself
through antiquity, I think our time can be understood through
the French revolution. It is quite a natural process to
use other times to understand your own time.

INTRODUCTION
The period of the French Revolution is perhaps one of the most difficult for the
bibliographer. The very nature of revolution ‑ with its tumult, chaos, destruction and
then proliferation through a cacophony of ideas and voices, spurred on by a new‑
found national zeal ‑ engenders a legion of nascent and often fleeting presses and
publications which make the work of the bibliographer practically impossible to
perfect.
What remains after the blood is spilt, the ink is dried and the presses cease is a
jumble of dates, ideas, propaganda and paper. Ephemeral by design, many of the
publications from the period survive in the form of periodicals, newspapers,
broadsides, images and pamphlets. To compound the confusion, there remains a
large body of anonymous work accompanied by an equally impressive body of
fictitious work signed with pseudonyms and printed by imaginary presses.
Private (and later national) collections were created by individuals who recognized
the value of the printing of their time and preserved as much of it as they could for
future generations. These persist as valuable sources for the contemporary scholar.
Many of these individuals have become iconic and include such names as
Talleyrand, Deroche and Nadaillac. These collections have been dispersed and re‑
gathered over the centuries, providing a fascinating paper trail in auction catalogs ‑
many of which remain as some of the most important reference sources for the
period. There have also been several hardy individuals who have attempted period
bibliographies; their work is considerable and immensely important to scholarship,
but forcibly incomplete.
What follows is a listing of the most significant of these reference and bibliographic
sources. They have been divided into sections of: general reference, bibliographies,
catalogs, and finally, other sources. This list is not complete but provides a solid
foundation for the scholar. There are also several important sources which have not
been annotated due to their scarcity and the inability of the author to acquire a copy
either online or in print. These have been included under the heading ʹother sourcesʹ
along with other more contextual and historical works.

GENERAL REFERENCE
‑ 1 ‑
Annales Historiques de la Révolution Française
Available at: ahrf.revues.org
Published by la Société des études robespierristes in partnership with Armand
Colin, this is the only international French journal dedicated solely to the French
Revolution. With four issues per year, the journal covers various aspects and
subjects of the Revolution along with listing all current publications pertaining to
the Revolution including books, university theses and dissertations, conferences
and seminars, as well as an index listing all relevant articles in other publications.
Back‑issues are available online for free download as PDF files. This is a
wonderful resource for serious scholar and hobbyist alike.

Bibliothèque Nationale de France, Départment des Imprimés. Catalogue de
lʹhistoire de France. Paris : Firmin‑Didot, 1855‑1895.
Partially Available at:
http://catalog.hathitrust.org/api/volumes/oclc/3781826.html
This catalog, published by order of the French government (which passed from
empire to republic before the work was completed), lists all works on the history
of France and its former colonies until the second half of the nineteenth century,
along with their location, housed within the collections of the Bibliothèque
nationale de France. The entire catalog was reprinted between 1968 and 1969 by
the BNF in fifteen volumes and also appears to at least have been partially
reprinted in 2011 as a public domain reprint by the Nabu Press (a subsidiary of
BiblioBazaar/BiblioLife) in both English and French as print‑on‑demand books
through Amazon.com (though only as individual volumes).
The work was augmented with a supplemental catalog entitled Catalogue de
lʹhistoire de France : Table générale alphabétique des ouvrages anonymes [Catalog of
the History of France: General Alphabetical Table of Anonymous Works] which
includes a Table des noms de personnes [Table of Names of People] in volumes I‑IV
and a Table des noms de lieux [Table of Place Names] in volumes V‑XV. These two

5. 5
tables contain in alphabetical order the names of the people and places
mentioned in the titles of the works listed in the Table générale alphabétique des
ouvrages anonymes. There is also an accompanying index.
As one can imagine for a work of this scale, the entries are concise, providing a
title, author, date, press, and format (in‑8°, in‑12° etc.). Some few entries may
provide brief descriptions, but these are the exceptions. Each entry is also
assigned a catalog number by section, each section being assigned its own
designation (e.g. Section IV: République Française: Lb41
). This work is referred to
by designated abbreviation in most other succeeding catalogs and bibliographies
and covers many works of the revolutionary period.
‑ 3 ‑
Bibliothèque Nationale de France. Des sources pour lʹhistoire de la presse:
guide. Paris: BNF, 2011.
This is an excellent general reference source for French publishing and contains a
particularly useful section for the period of the Revolution between 1789 and
1815. Apart from listing Martin and Walter (mentioned below) along with Feyel,
the work contains a listing of important works relating to printing and
publishing in France during the Revolution. This is a work worth consulting for
those in search of contextual information in further readings.

Delalain, Paul. Lʹimprimerie et la librairie à Paris de 1789 à 1813:
Renseignements recueillis, classés et accompagnés dʹune introduction. Paris:
Librairie Delalain Frères, 1899.
This is an alphabetical listing by year of operation of all of the known presses in
Paris between 1789 and 1813. The listing contains the name of the press or printer
and their address inside of Paris with a definition and tabulation of the various
divisions and quartiers of Paris under first, the Tiers état, and then later under
the Assemblée nationale.
The work also contains two appendices (or ʹclassementsʹ) the first being an index
by profession or rather specialization, with the second being a classification of
presses by street and date with adjusted addresses as street numbers changed
over time. There are also several period maps of the various quartiers of Paris.

6. 6
This is a valuable resource for establishing printers and presses within the
context of the Revolution and the geography of Paris. It can serve to validate
certain printing aspects of imprints as well as contribute to the historical allure ‑
and hence price ‑ of documents for both dealers and vendors.

Furet, François and Ozouf, Mona, editors. Dictionnaire critique de la
Révolution française. Paris: Editions Flammarion, 2007.
Furet, François and Ozouf, Mona, editors. A Critical Dictionary of the French
Revolution. Cambridge: Harvard University Press, 1989.
First published in 1988 then augmented and re‑edited in 1997 and again in 2007,
this is perhaps one of the most definitive contemporary works on the French
Revolution. Written and edited by François Furet and Mona Ozouf (two of the
foremost contemporary authorities in the field) the dictionary contains entries
written by contemporary scholars divided into five volumes (or chapters
depending on the edition): events, participants, institutions & creations, ideas,
and finally, interpretations and historians.
The articles are concise, authoritative, and serve as a ready reference to any
student or scholar interested in persons or events related to the French
Revolution. To the book collector, vendor, or librarian, the dictionary is
invaluable in gaining a quick understanding of authors, their major
contributions, and their place in the Revolution. This serves to put books,
documents, and pamphlets in context and is a must‑have for the serious scholar
or dealer of revolutionary imprints.
The dictionary is available in both French and English from either Flammarion or
Harvard University Press.

Gallica.bnf.fr
This is the free online digital library of the Bibliothèque nationale de France.
Available in both French and English, Gallica contains a vast amount of digitized
documents, books, manuscripts and images from the revolutionary period
within the BNFʹs holdings. It is somewhat difficult to navigate and a bit

7. 7
unwieldy, but it does provide free PDF downloads of any document within the
collection. This is a great resource for seeing images of actual documents, though
it does require some searching.
BIBLIOGRAPHIES
‑ 7 ‑
Thompson, Lawrence. A Bibliography of French Revolutionary Pamphlets on
Microfiche. Troy, NY: The Whitson Publishing Company, 1974.
This falls somewhere between a catalog and a bibliography but is included under
the heading of bibliography in that it attempts to be comprehensive, although it
is unclear to what extent the collection was ever completed, as it is not complete
in this edition. This is an alphabetical listing including: author, title, date and
pagination, for works included in the French Revolution microfiche collection of
the General Microfiche Company.
The pamphlets in the collection were taken from the Talleyrand Collection of the
NYPL (listed below), the Melvin Collection of the University of Kansas (also
listed below), the Library of Congress, the University of Kentucky, and various
private collections including Thompsonʹs own. This is a useful work not only for
its general listing, but also for its reconciliation of cross‑listings that appear in
other catalogs and bibliographies that were often duplicated under differing
titles and dates of publication. Thompson has gone through some of the standard
reference sources (primarily those printed in the US) for the period and cross‑
referenced as many titles as appear in this bibliography.
‑ 8 ‑
Tourneux, Maurice. Bibliographie de lʹhistoire de Paris pendant la Révolution
française. Paris : Imprimerie nouvelle, 1890‑1913.
Available at: Gallica.bnf.fr
This five‑volume work is an attempt at a complete bibliography of works relating
to, or from, the history of Paris during the revolutionary period. The
bibliography is arranged by subject, each subject with their own respective
alphabetical listings. Each listing is assigned a listing number and includes: title,
author, press, format, pagination and BNF listing number if applicable. The

8. 8
entries are concise and lack description, but the overall work is important in
bringing together a vast majority of the known publications emanating from, or
relating to, Paris during the period.
CATALOGS
‑ 9 ‑
Ball State University Digital Media Repository. French Revolution Pamphlets.
Available at: http://libx.bsu.edu/cdm/landingpage/collection/FrnchRev
The Digital Media Repository of Ball State University has created an online
digital collection of French pamphlets from their libraries. The collection contains
pamphlets from between 1779 and 1815 and documents the time leading up to
the Revolution through the Napoleonic Wars.
The digitization has been expertly done and the site offers free PDF downloads
of all of the pamphlets listed. Each text is also listed with its full catalog record
and description. Though the collection is relatively small, it is one of the few that
has been put online for free ‑ the other being that of the BNF through
Gallica.bnf.org. It gives the scholar all of the benefits of seeing the actual
document in a fully searchable and catalogued format.
‑ 10 ‑
Chossonnery, Antonin. Catalogue des livres, manuscrits et autographes sur la
Révolution française composant la bibliothèque de feu M. Pochet‑Deroche...
Paris: Librarie de la bibliothèque de lʹarsenal, 1882.
Available at: gallica.bnf.fr
This is a catalog of the sale of the library of M. Pochet‑Deroche in 1882. Deroche
had created quite an extensive collection in collaboration with many other great
French collectors of the 19th century. The extensive collection was particularly
strong in works relating to, or from, the French Revolution which were sold over
a five‑day stretch of the thirteen‑day auction.

9. 9
The catalog is arranged according to the schedule of the auction and is therefor
rather difficult to follow thematically. There is a ʹtable of divisionsʹ provided
which is very generalized and does not aid in the search of individual
documents. The individual catalog listings include: title, author, date, format (in‑
4°, in‑8°, etc.) and a brief description. This catalog is useful for the annotations;
something which lacks from many other bibliographies and catalogs dealing
with the period.
‑ 11 ‑
Chossonnery, Antonin. Catalogue dʹune collection importante sur la Révolution
Française: pamphlets, journaux, caricatures, affiches, placards, provenant de la
bibliothèque de M. le Comte B. de Nadaillac... Paris: Librarie de la bibliothèque
de lʹarsenal, 1885.
Available at:
http://www.google.com/books?id=1BJBAAAAYAAJ
Similar to the Chossonnery catalog of 1882, this is a catalog of the sale of the
Comte de Nadaillacʹs extensive collection of books and documents. The
collection was diverse, containing works of great French authors and literature
from all periods along with a rather important collection of revolutionary works.
The collection contained several important groupings of particular interest
including: a series of important works relating to Louis XVI, Marie Antoinette,
and the court; a series of pamphlets against Louis XVI, Marie Antoinette, the
court, and important revolutionaries, along with various other works relating to
the revolutionary tribunals and their verdicts.
Like the Deroche catalog this is arranged according to the schedule of the auction
with the revolutionary documents spread out over a period of nine days. This
makes the catalog a bit difficult to work with. There is a ʹtable of divisionsʹ with a
subject listing, however, it is still very generalized and not very useful. The
individual catalog listings are bit more detailed and include: title, author, date,
format (in‑4°, in‑8°, etc.) and, for the majority, a brief description of content. This
catalog is again useful for its annotations.

Rue des bons‑enfants, 28, (Maison Sylvestre) Salle no 3. Par le ministère de mm.
Léon Tual ... [et] Georges Boulland. Paris: Librarie de la bibliothèque de
lʹarsenal, 1889.
Available at:
http://catalog.hathitrust.org/Record/009384477
Following the established pattern of Chossonnery sales, this is a catalog of an
anonymous collection containing a large quantity of revolutionary materials sold
over five days of a six‑day auction. The owner of the collection remains
anonymous and the catalog contains the same strengths and weaknesses of the
previous two Chossonnery catalogs from 1882 and 1885 ‑ again, useful for its
annotations.

Clavreuil, R. Livres et Documents sur la Révolution Française: En vente aux prix
marqués à la librarie historique R. Clavreuil. La Roche‑sur‑Yon, France:
Imprimerie Centrale de lʹOuest, 1963.
The Librairie historique Clavreuil (http://www.clavreuil.fr) is one of the primary
French bookshops dealing with period French Revolution materials. They will
periodically release catalogs of their revolutionary holdings; which, for the older
catalogs, are quite difficult to find, but which are quite useful in that they include
current price listings. Several other important Clavreuil catalogs for the
revolutionary period include the 1949 Catalogue spécial à la Révolution française
and the 1956 Catalogue de mémoires de château, cataloging the sale of the collection
of the Marquis de Roys, consecrated primarily to the French Revolution and the
first half of the 19th century.
The 1963 catalog contains an alphabetical listing by either title or author of over
3,000 works from the period. The listings include: title, author, date, format (in‑
4°, in‑8°, etc.), pagination, the internal Clavreuil listing number, and listing price.
This catalog is useful for establishing a frame of reference for rarity and price.

11. 11
However, because it lacks an index, and the listings are either by title or author,
it is not the easiest catalog to use.

Deschiens, François‑Joseph. Collection de matériaux pour lʹhistoire de la
révolution de France, depuis 1787 jusquʹà ce jour: Bibliographie des journaux.
Paris: Barrois lʹainé, 1829.
This is a catalog of a collection of over 12,000 books and volumes in‑f°, in‑4°, and
in‑8°. The collection has been divided and presented in three sections by
Deschiens: Men, Subjects and Journals. The first section (Men) is organized
alphabetically by name with political works, discourses, opinions, and
pamphlets published by the author along with a listing of works printed for or
against him. The second section is organized into a number of subdivisions to aid
in research, and the third contains the journals and ephemera of the collection.
This is another particularly useful resource for its detailed explanations and
annotations. No listing numbers are assigned, however, author, title, date and
some pagination and serial information are provided.

Dujardin‑Sailly, Pillet, Pierre‑Augustin‑Jacques‑François and Roux, Pierre,

dʹimprimeries et de librairies. Paris: lʹImprimerie Baudelot et Eberhart, 1797‑
1805.
Available at: Gallica.bnf.fr
This publication appeared as a series of periodicals containing a listing of French
publications published between the years 1797 and 1805. Though covering only
the last few years of the revolutionary period and not specifically germane to
revolutionary imprints, the journal is an interesting and potentially useful
resource to the scholar searching for an understanding of period publications
and presses.

12. 12
The journal entries are arranged alphabetically under subject headings such as
printing, papermaking, geography, music etc. and contain a listing of current
Parisian printers as well as advertisements or classifieds of printing materials
and tools for sale ‑ taking for example the 1st edition from August 1797 in which
8 cases of type are offered for sale in fonts of small‑text, small‑roman, and cicero
along with several small presses in the neighborhood of Montmartre.

Gouin, E. Catalogue dʹune collection très importante dʹouvrages historiques et

Available at gallica.bnf.fr
It is unclear if this catalog was intended for an auction or if it was simply for a
private collection. It is useful for its scope in particular relation to the monarchy
and the satirical literature produced against it during the Revolution.
Each listing is assigned a listing number and includes: author, title, publisher (if
any) and place of publication, date, format, and pagination. The catalog also
contains very concise yet detailed annotations, which make this an important
resource.

Hayden, Horace E. French Revolutionary Pamphlets: a Check List of the
Talleyrand & Other Collections. New York: New York Public Library, 1945.
This is a printed checklist of primarily the Talleyrand Collection of the New York
Public Library. The work is supplemented to include other pertinent
revolutionary pamphlet collections of the NYPL up to 1945. The checklist is only
partial, excluding other contemporary literature, periodicals and official
publications from the revolutionary period in the libraryʹs holdings, but remains
a useful resource nonetheless.
In 1937 the NYPL acquired the collection of revolutionary pamphlets formerly
belonging to Charles‑Maurice de Talleyrand‑Périgord (1754‑1838). The collection
is contained in 105 volumes uniformly bound in boards comprising 2,027 titles or
4,065 pieces. The bulk of the collection was printed between 1787 and September

13. 13
1791 and is particularly strong in the financial crisis, the calling of the Estates
General, the disorders of Brittany, the fall of the Bastille and the formation of the
new government of Paris along with the disorders in Paris during the summer of
1789. There is some indication that Talleyrand himself may have gathered the
collection and Hayden will provide an argument for its provenance in his
introduction.
The checklist of the Talleyrand collection is divided into three sections: I.
Pamphlets, II. Official Publications, and III. Periodical Publications. The
supplement follows the same organization. The checklist also includes a personal
author index and a subject index. The entries are concise and include: a listing
number, author, title, date, press and pagination, followed by a library location
listing of either class DFD (for the general pamphlet location) or DFDT (for the
Talleyrand Collection specifically).

Martin, André and Walter, Gérard. Catalogue de LʹHistoire de la Révolution
Française. 5 vols. Paris: Éditions des bibliothèques nationales, 1936‑1969.
This is a comprehensive seven‑volume catalog of all of the works relating to, or
from, the period of the French Revolution in the Bibliothèque Nationale de
France through 1943. This is a significant catalog and is still considered as one of
the definitive catalogs of the French Revolution.
The catalog has been subdivided between authors of the revolutionary period
and authors of the pre‑ and post‑revolutionary periods. Those who are
considered as revolutionary authors are those who wrote or printed between
1789 and 1799 with the limit being set at the establishment of the Etats généraux
and the 18th of Brumaire. Those works that appeared during this period
comprise the first section of the catalog and are subdivided into: I. Authors, II.
Anonymous, III. Periodicals. There are several other subdivisions for pre‑
revolution and post‑revolution authors arranged in similar fashion.
Listings are alphabetical by title or author depending on the nature of the piece
and include: author with a brief biography, title, date, format (In‑4°, In‑8°, etc.),
pagination, and the BNF Catalogue de lʹhistoire de France listing number (e.g. LB42
595). Though the listings are brief and un‑annotated, this remains as a valuable
resource for both the researcher and the collector in establishing period

14. 14
publications and their place in relation to their authors and the Revolution as a
whole and will be cited in many other subsequent bibliographies and catalogs.

The Newberry Library. The French Revolution Collection (FRC): A Catalog of
French Pamphlets.
Available at:
http://www.newberry.org/french‑pamphlets
The Newberry Library in Chicago is home to one of the largest French
Revolution pamphlet collections in the United States. The library houses over
30,000 pamphlets and more than 23,000 issues of 180 periodicals published
between 1780 and 1810. The Library acquired the collection between the years of
1957 and 1961 from Michel Bernstein, a Parisian book dealer. The collection is
significant in that it contains, in addition to many well‑known journals, several
exceptional works and unique publications.
The collection covers both royalist and revolutionist factions between 1789 and
1799 and contains a large ephemera collection from the early Republic. The
majority of the collection was produced by lʹImprimerie nationale, although
there are also a variety of provincial and fictitious publishers represented.
In 2009 the Newberry received a grant from the Council on Library and
Information Resources to catalog the collection beginning with a selection of
22,000 pamphlets. The team entrusted with the work has created a blog to
document the project available at: newberry.webfactional.com/frenchpamphlets/.
The collection is now becoming available online in the VuFind version of the
Newberry catalog available on their website. This has the potential for being
quite beneficial for scholars and dealers alike in allowing them to find pamphlets
online, particularly those that are rare and unique, by title and then go and see
them. There is currently no digitization of the collection, though such a thing is
perhaps conceivable in future.

Saricks, Ambrose. A Bibliography of the Frank E. Melvin Collection of
Pamphlets of the French Revolution in the University of Kansas Libraries.
Lawrence: University of Kansas Libraries, 1960.
This two‑volume set, though not a very comely work, is an important resource
for the serious scholar. In 1952 the Library of the University of Kansas acquired
an important collection of French pamphlets and other publications from the
period of the French Revolution comprising over 6,5000 pamphlets. The
collection was purchased by, and then acquired from, Martinus Nijhoff, a
publisher/bookseller located in The Hague, Netherlands. Nijhoffʹs agent
purchased the collection from a notable French family who insisted upon
remaining anonymous.
The majority of the collection covers the years between 1787 and 1800 with
particular emphasis on the period of the National Constituent Assembly. The
collection is also strong in official documents including: resolutions, laws,
committee reports, and printed discourse and opinion pieces.
The bibliography (which is more of a catalog, hence its placement here) is
organized alphabetically by author and includes a brief biography where such is
available. Title, date, press and pagination are also all included in the brief
listings, which are each assigned their own listing number. There will sometimes
be a brief annotation of the content of the pamphlet, which is what makes this an
important resource to be used in conjunction with Martin and Walterʹs work as
well as with the other sources listed here.
