Abbé Prévost's Manon Lescaut Jan 2001 MusicWeb(UK) a femme fatale to rival Carmen. Born in 1697, the Frenchman Abbé Prévost, AntoineFrancois Prévost d Exiles, led an extemely colourful life http://www.musicweb.uk.net/classrev/2001/Jan01/Prevost.htm
Extractions: Manon Lescaut - a femme fatale to rival Carmen Histoire du chevalier des Grieux et de Manon Lescaut Manon Lescaut inspired operas by Auber, Massenet, Puccini and, as recently as 1952 by Hans Werner Henze in an updated version he re-named Boulevard Solitude. Between 1728 and 1734 he lived in exile in England and Holland, and was imprisoned for forgery in the former country. Allowed to return to France as a Benedictine monk, he briefly served the Prince de Conti as chaplain until he was compelled to escape abroad again when accused of writing satirical pamphlets. He returned to France in 1742 where he remained until his death in 1763 as a writer, his life complicated by dubious love affairs and debt. His works included translations of Richardson's novels Pamela and Clarissa Harlowe and the seven volumes of Manon Lescaut "I could not describe the state I was in when I read this letter, and to this day I cannot decide what sort of emotions swirled around in my soul. It was one of those unique situations, the like of which has never been experienced before; you cannot explain to others because they have no conception of what is meant, and you cannot unravel them for yourself because, being unique, they have no connection with anything in your memory, nor even with any known feeling at all. And yet, whatever my emotions were, certain is that grief, rage, jealousy and humiliation all had a share in them."

From A New Discovery of a Vast Country in America An example of the first print of Niagara Falls, from the third plate, second state. "It is plain, I think, that the first picture of Niagara Falls was not engraved from any sketch or drawing `made on the spot.' It couldn't be, and be so wrong." (Severance, p.117) The image was drawn based on Hennepin's text, perhaps by Jan van Vianen, whose name appears on other Hennepin illustrations. Hennepin's view was first published 1697 in Utrecht in the first edition of Nouvelle Decouverte d'un tres grand Pays Situe dans l'Amerique
