Actually written in English by John Shebbeare (1709-1788), a British Tory political satirist, although he pretends to be the "translator" of this work by the fictional Angeloni. The "Letters" are a political satire, an attack on the Duke of Newcastle, and modeled on Bolingbroke's writings against Robert Walpole.
