Dictionnaire mytho-hermétique, dans lequel on trouve les allégories fabuleuses des poètes, les métaphores, les énigmes et les termes barbares des philosophes hermétiques expliqués
A mid-eighteenth-century French dictionary of mythological and hermetic terms by Antoine Joseph Pernety, published in 1758 by Bauche, aimed at readers of alchemical and classical allegory. The two pictures are a printed ornamental block of radiating star and scrolled foliage corners, and a bookplate for C.G. Jung with a winged angel above a heraldic shield bearing a star and cross, flanked by gold and grey scrollwork and a Latin motto; a designer might take the symmetrical corner foliage and the heraldic shield layout as models for framing.
