Quarto publisher's original blue boards printed and pictorially decorated in black on the spine and upper cover. 52 1 pp. A handsome copy very well preserved the binding is tight and the hinges are sound a bit of light mellowing to the spine panel the text-block mellowed as usual a very pleasing copy. FIRST EDITION AND A VERY SCARCE BOOK IN SUCH WELL PRESERVED CONDITION. Misfortunes of the Immortals is one of Ernst’s first illustrated books—a format that would become increasingly significant for him. Marking the beginning of his close friendship with French poet Paul Éluard the book pairs the semantic dislocations of Éluard’s poems with the visual disjunctions of Ernst’s recent collages. Ernst cut up wood engravings he found in books and magazines and pieced the fragments together to create strange new compositions. The uniform texture of the wood-engraved lines gives these images a disquieting seamlessness. To Ernst’s delight this effect was enhanced when the collages were printed photomechanically.

Cette petite anthologie est une mosaïque de maximes et d'aphorismes récoltés ça et là parmi les textes de ceux qu'il considérait comme ses précurseurs - Lewis Carroll Laforgue Lautréamont Mallarmé Freud - entrecoupée de ses commentaires : « Si Baudelaire Lautréamont Rimbaud paraissent pleins de remords c'est que leur solitude est illimitée … Depuis plus de cent ans les poètes sont descendus des sommets sur lesquels ils se croyaient. Voici qu'ils sont des hommes parmi les hommes ; voici qu'ils sont des frères. » ; une claration faite à l'occasion de l'Exposition internationale du surréalisme qu'il allait remanier l'année suivante et dont il donnera une édition définitive dans Donner à voir publié en 1939.

Ce «Blason des arbres» me paraît supérieur à ce qui parut dans la «nouvelle» NRF. Il y a des moments bouleversants de «transparence». Permettez-moi de vous remercier mille fois et de vous dire ma joie. » Scheler p. 76-77 Le dédicataire du « Blason des fleurs et des fruits » Jean Paulhan dont le nom avait été biffé des épreuves et rétabli à la demande instante du poète lui rappelait quant à lui cette publication contestable à la Libération : « à ce moment-là tu collaborais - comme le faisaient Gide et Valéry comme Mauriac se déclarait prêt à le faire - à la revue. Tu as changé ensuite comme eux - mais non pas je pense pour la même raison.

51-6727Paris: 1931-1954. 22 letters on 32 leaves; Most are dated and from René Char to Valentine Hugo. A few are by or to Valentine and Paul Eluard. The three lived together in the 1930s.In March of 1926 Valentine attended one of the first Surrealist expositions where she met Paul Éluard. Their meeting sparked a friendship that would continue until his death in 1952. In 1927 after working as costume designer on the set of La Passion de Jeanne d'Arc Valentine returned to Paris a full-fledged Surrealist; Jean Hugo however never embraced the Surrealist movement. In the years following their hurried nuptials their tastes diverged leading to separation in 1929 and finally divorce in 1932. Despite the end of their marital relations Valentine and Jean remained friends until her death in 1968.Provenance: Pierre Spivakoff 1933-2012…Après des études au Cours Simon Pierre Spivakoff crée à Paris le tout premier café-théâtre « Le Royal » situé boulevard Raspail où il met en scène des pièces de Fey¬deau Ionesco Dumas Rachilde Molière et Corneille.
