vocabularies of eroticism

Pierre Pierrugues is thought to be the author of Glossarium eroticum linguœ latinœ (1826), published under the initials P. P.

The Terminal Essay (1885-86) by Richard Burton remarks that "P. P. is supposed to be Chevalier Pierre Pierrugues, an engineer who made a plan of Bordeaux and who annotated the Erotica Biblion. Gay writes [in Bibliographie des ouvrages relatifs à l'amour], 'On s'est servi pour cet ouvrage des travaux inédits de M. Ie Baron de Schonen, etc. Quant au Chevalier Pierre Pierrugues, qu'on désignait comme l'auteur de ce savant volume, son existence n'est pas bien avérée, et quelques bibliographes persistent à penser que ce nom cache la collaboration du Baron de Schonen et d'Éloi Johanneau.' Other glossicists as Blondeau and Forberg have been printed by Liseux, Paris."
