The Adventures of Telemachus is the first critical edition of Tobias Smollett's 1776 translation of Bishop Fénelon's 1699 "mirror for princes," written especially for Duc de Burgogne, heir presumptive to Louis XIV.Both in its original French and its many translations, The Adventures of Telemachus was one of the most popular and revered works of the eighteenth century. There were more than ten English prose and poetry versions, including this masterful prose translation by Smollett. Known for his novels Roderick Random and The Expedition of Humphry Clinker, Smollett was also a gifted translator. The Adventures of Telemachus was his final translation and is one of the finest versions of the work. Long a disputed title in the Smollett canon, it is fully restored to his credit by Leslie A. Chilton.

Cette lettre a été écrite alors que Fénelon était précepteur du duc de Bourgogne, petit-fils de Louis XIV. Fénelon envoya anonymement cette lettre a Madame de Maintenon, qui était mariée en secret a Louis XIV, afin qu''elle puisse attirer l''attention du roi sur l''état désastreux du pays. On ne sait si le monarque eut connaissance de cette missive qui prônait si dignement la vertu politique contre le souci de la gloire et l''appétit des conquetes. Fénelon reviendra sur les themes défendus ici avec clarté et hauteur dans les Aventures de Télémaque.
