Note: According to honesterotica.com, Séduction: jeunes amours (Seduction: Young Lovers) was first published in Paris in 1902 under the pseudonym Pierrot (i.e. Docteur Brennus), with later editions in 1908 and 1910; although presented as anonymous, several of the included narratives are attributable to known authors, notably Alexis Piron (1689–1773) and Henri Monnier (1799–1877), while Jeremy Leah’s translation for the Erotic Print Society’s Scarlet Library treats the collection as anonymous.
