Date: 1657-00-00
Type: NOVEL
Series: Les états et empires de la Lune et du Soleil

Note:
  • For the first edition the text was revised and censored by Cyrano de Bergerac's friend Henri Lebret. Many passages of 'moral ambiguity', especially concerning religion, were cut out.
  • There seem to be not one original manuscript text but three. The one found at Bibliothèque nationale de France was first published in 1921 (editor: Frédéric Lachèvre). Two manuscripts dated earlier than this one were sold to the University of Sidney by an English collector and found at Bavarian State Library, respectively. This last one was published in 1910 (editor: Leo Jordan). (Information from this source.)
