Notre coeur Our Heart

189056348Paris: Paul Ollendorff 1890. Fine. Paul Ollendorff Paris 1890 13 x 19 cm broché First edition one of 150 numbered copies on Hollande the only deluxe issue copies after 5 on Japon. A very fine copy as issued with an important manuscript document by Elme-Marie Caro 1 page in ink on a double leaf undated 1887 . Maupassant's last novel Notre Coeur is also one of his most autobiographical. The writer was strongly influenced in this piece by famous literary and artistic ""Salons"" held by high society women which he frequently attended. The novel confronts a man of letters with one of these strong-headed women of late 19th-century Paris. He describes the main character Michèle de Burne as ""a woman of refinement of indeterminate sensibility restless without fixed resolves her feelings in constant turmoil who seemed to have made it part of her experience to employ every narcotic that quiets the aching nerves: chloroform that stupefies ether and morphine that excite to abnormal reverie kill the senses and deaden the emotions"" Maupassant sketches the fictional portrait of Countess Potocka to whom he was one of the most fervent suitors called ""Macchabées"" or ""morts d'amour"" according to the rules of the literary game created in her famous Salon. He paints the picture of his unrequited love through this modern liberated although oppressive woman who only finds pleasure in the enslavement of her lover. Our copy exceptionally contains a precious ""Convocation extraordinaire du Club des Macchabées"" an amusing original document written by philosopher Elme-Marie Caro. Countess Potocka is referred to in the document as ""the Patroness Head of the Executive and Decorative Power of the Macchabees"" and the list of her suitors ""specially and ex officio summoned without procrastination or apology"" includes some of the Countess's Salon regulars: Clovis Bachelier Adrien de Montebello Olivier Taigny and Dubois were members of the administrative committee painters Jean Béraud and Henri Gervex represented the art world and writers Georges Legrand Elme-Marie Caro and Gustave Schlumberger the literary world. The ""President"" of this society is none other than famous actor Coquelin aîné member of the Comédie française. Although he does not appear on this invitation Maupassant played a major role in this infamous group as ""Perpetual Secretary of the Permanent Council of the Club des Macchabées"". A precious document bearing witness to the fascinating Countess who inspired Maupassant Marcel Proust for his Duchesse de Guermantes and Aimé Guerlain who created for her his Shore's Caprice perfume.

« Vous prenez un chien enragé que vous faites manger par un lapin; vous faites ensuite dévorer ce lapin par un mouton » Autograph manuscript to the Countess Potocka

188566470s. l. 1885. Fine. s. l. s. d. juillet-août 1885 9.60 x 15.50 cm une feuille Autograph manuscript by Guy de Maupassant to Countess Potocka 36 lines in ink on one page. Horizontal fold at center. Published in Philippe Dahhan ""Guy de Maupassant et les femmes : essai"" Bertout 1996. Unusual manuscript by Maupassant giving a false rabies vaccine formula he calls ""Élixir Pasteur"" made with namely ""seven tears of a rejected academic candidate"" ""five drops of journalist's drool"" and ""one centimeter of novelist's pride"". This amusing prescription is addressed to Countess Potocka a wealthy aristocratic socialite and intellectual whose beauty and fickle personality greatly inspired feminine Maupassant characters: Christiane Andermatt in Mont-Oriol and Michèle de Burne in Notre cur Our Heart. Maupassant writes to Emmanuela Pignatelli di Cergharia wife of the extremely rich Polish count Nicolas Potocki who allowed her a great deal of freedom. Her Parisian salon in the avenue Friedland was from 1882 onwards the exclusive meeting place for an elite composed of writers socialites and literary types. It hosted each Friday a council of suitors ""dying of love"" ironically nicknamed the ""Maccabees"" in reference to the seven martyred brothers of the Bible. Visitors included Guerlain who made a perfume for her called Shore's caprice and composer Camille Saint-Saëns who wrote a mazurka for her artist Léon Bonnart who painted her portrait as well as young Marcel Proust who wrote a Figaro column about her renowned gathering. She remained Maupassant's greatest conquest and muse whom he courted until the end of his life. The author gives the Countess an unlikely recipe for Elixir Pasteur inspired by Louis Pasteur's rabies experiments using rabbit marrow. The undated autograph manuscript was probably written in July-August 1885 when Pasteur successfully administered his rabies vaccine to nine-year-old Joseph Meister. Maupassant deploys his talents for farce and parody twisting medical jargon to create a fake vaccine: ""So this last animal receives the rabies virus at its seventh potency and instantly goes into a rage. You then remove its left eye and extract the visual fluid with a morphine syringe. You put this fluid in a small granite jar with five drops of journalist's slime"". Diagnosed with syphilis some ten years earlier Maupassant was in fact particularly familiar with remedies and potions. He was a frequent visitor to spa towns and consulted numerous doctors before his internment at Doctor Blanche's clinic where he died of general paralysis on July 6 1893. This humorous note to Countess Potocka is one of his countless seduction attempts. He remained an eternally thwarted lover despite having written numerous manuscripts for her composed poems written on fans and visited her almost daily during his stays in Paris. Their correspondence went on for many years with Maupassant going so far as to create the ""Société Anonyme Anti-Soporifique pour la Récréation perpétuelle de la Comtesse Potocka"" with the sole aim of entertaining the Countess and escaping her indifference: ""Realizing that my efforts are often fruitless in the face of your deliberate indifference I've tried to find a way to overcome your boredom on every occasion"" Letter August 1885 The Morgan Library New York. Maupassant ends his note with an amusing remark proving the effectiveness of his remedy against rabies: ""It is by this method that all accidents were avoided during the last Congress"" in reference to the Berlin Conference of 18841885 also known as the Congo Conference where the colonial partitioning of Africa was decided.
