Works

  • 1768: Zélis au bain, Paris, 1763, 1766, in-8. This poem, in four books, was written with enough natural but in a too free tone; the author, who worked ceaselessly his works, reworked it, changed the outcome and added two songs (la Nouvelle Zélis au bain, Geneva, in-8).
  • 1764: Le Pot-pourri, épître à qui on voudra, Paris, Sébastien Jorry.
  • 1764: Lettre d'Alcibiade à Glicère, Paris, Sébastien Jorry, in-12.
  • 1767: Lettre d'Ovide à Julie, in-8.
  • 1767: Suite des Bagatelles anonymes (by Dorat), Paris, in-8.
  • 1770: La Closière ou le Vin nouveau, opéra comique, Paris, in-8.
  • 1771: Éloge de Fénelon, Paris, in-8.
  • 1771: Les Soirées helvétiennes, alsaciennes et franc-comtoises, Paris, in-8; London, 1772, 2 vol. in-12.
  • 1771: Les Tableaux, followed by Histoire de Mlle de Syanne et du comte de Marcy, Paris, in-8;
  • 1771: Traduction en prose de Catullus, Tibullus and Gallus, Paris, 1771, 1794, 2 vol. in-8 et in-12.
  • 1773: La Rosière de Salenci, opéra lyrique, Paris, in-8. The music by Grétry made the success of this work.
  • 1775: Histoire des campagnes de Maillebois en Italie en 1745 et 1746, Paris, 3 vol. in-4 and atlas.
  • 1775: Journal militaire ou relation détaillée des campagnes de M. le maréchal de Maillebois en Italie: précédé et suivi d'un précis historique de cette guerre.

A selection of his Œuvres was published (Liège, 1791, 2 vol. in-12), preceded by a historical and literary note. Masson de Pezay also contributed articles to the Encyclopédie by Diderot and D'Alembert.
