Ten years after the publication of La Deffence et illustration de la langue francoyse, Abel Matthieu continued the combat with his two Devis, partly inspired by the work of Pietro Bembo. This reference edition gives him his rightful place as a precursor to the French theoreticians of the Grand Siecle.
