    add to previous post

    Voltaire TO M. THIERIOT.

    At Bruel, November 13, 1720.

    I hear neither of you nor of M. de Fargès; perhaps you wrote to me in Sully, where I am no longer. I am only waiting for one of your letters to return to Paris. So write to me at Bruel, at M, the Duke of La Feuillade, by Orléans, as soon as you receive this present. If there is any news in Paris, let me know. I'm looking forward to seeing you again in this good health that you tell me about. As the resemblance of our temperaments is perfect, I am as well as you. However, I believe that you had a stomach ache yesterday, because I had indigestion[1].


    Brüel (German pronunciation: [ˈbʁyːl]) is a town in the Ludwigslust-Parchim district, in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Germany. It is situated 24 km northeast of Schwerin.

    Johann Baptist Wanhal's conception

    conc sept 1738 *12 May 1739 born Johann Baptist Wanhal[1] (12 May 1739 – 20 August 1813) born in Nechanice, Bohemia

    October 1738 Lazy, good-natured Theriot came to stay at Cirey in October 1738, and no doubt did his idle best to wean his indefatigable host from the scientific labours to which he was devoted, soul and body. The Cirey goddess did not care about M. Theriot. If she was not married to Voltaire*1688 she was at least wifely in her failings, and not at all too disposed to like her lover’s old friends. Voltaire went into the parting guest’s bedchamber, and under pretence of helping him to pack, slipped into his box fifty louis.

    15 October 1738 Luca Antonio Predieri (1688 – 1767) La pace tra la virtù e la bellezza (Peace between virtue and beauty), libretto by Metastasio, premiered Vienna,

M. le duc de Sully est le plus aimable des hommes et celui à qui j'ai le plus d'obligation

    In previous post, Vivaldi seems like the odd man out but is he?

    Acc to acc to White, Micky (2013). Antonio Vivaldi A Life in Documents. Florence: Leo S. Olschki Editore:

    He was baptized immediately after his birth at his home by the midwife, the reason for which has led to speculation. Most likely it was done due either to his poor health or to an earthquake that supposedly struck the city that day. In the trauma of the earthquake, Vivaldi's mother may have dedicated him to the priesthood.[10] However, there was no earthquake on the day Vivaldi was born, and this rumor may originate from an earthquake that struck Venice on 17 April 1688.[11]

    Furthermore :

    a)16th February 1711-5th -April 1711 La *finta pazzia di Diana Predieri Luca Antonio (1688-1767) prima assoluta Firenze Teatro degl'Accademici Immobili posto in Via della Pergola

    while In February 1711, Vivaldi and his father traveled to Brescia, where his setting of the Stabat Mater (RV 621) was played as part of a religious festival,

    b) in October 1726 in October 1726, James *1688 went with the two princes to live in Bologna, leaving the Palazzo del Re in Rome empty. Pope Benedict XIII had supported Clementina in her objection to having a Protestant in charge of her son. When, therefore, the queen did rejoin the court she had to travel to Bologna, where she arrived to discover that James was no longer there
    while
    on 9 November 1726 Dorilla in Tempe is a melodramma eroico pastorale or opera in three acts by composer Antonio Vivaldi with an Italian libretto by Antonio Maria Lucchini. (Venice, c. 1690 – Venice, before 1730) The opera premiered at the Teatro San Angelo in Venice on 9 November 1726 and was written for the Italian mezzo soprano Anna Girò aka Anna Giraud La Mantovana, who frequently appeared under the stage name of Anna Maddalena Tessieri. Girò hailed from Mantua, and was born around the turn of the 18th century. Anna was Vivaldi’s mistress

    c)Vivaldi's "death" July 1741 soon after

    Tilio de Camas's death † 14. April 1741 (* 1688 in Wesel)

    d)Just like Voltaire, Vivaldi was in good terms with pope Benedict XIII

    Marquis Condorcet's father:

    conc mid jan 1747 (*) born Marie Jean Antoine Nicolas de Caritat, Marquis of Condorcet (*Ribemont (near Calais)

    13. Feb. 1747 Doris, ein musikalisches Schäferspiel in 2 parts 13. Feb. 1747 Dresden, Mingottisches Theater Johann Georg (Adam) Schürer/Gioachino Cocchi /Charles Edward Stuart (* um 1720 in Raudnitz (Roudnice) an der Elbe in Böhmen; † 16. Februar 1786 in Dresden)


    he (they all) probably did die in 1794 but Condorcet's portrait is fake
