Doutes sur la langue françoise [microforme] : proposez à messieurs de l'académie françoise

Bouhours, Dominique, 1628-1702 · 1674 · Paris : Chez S. Mabre-Cramoisy · 10 pictures

A 1674 Paris grammar treatise on the French language by Dominique Bouhours, published by Mabre-Cramoisy and addressed to the members of the Académie française as a set of questions about usage. The four pictures are not illustrations but scanning artefacts from a microfilm copy: a smudged marginal annotation reading 'Excl. d'un Prince' with a page reference, a printed 'p.T' fragment, a blurred black cross, and a loose hand-drawn curved line. A designer could take from them a sense of degraded microfilm texture, faded ink marks and archival ephemera.
