19310037321Paris: S. & C. aux Depens des Bibliophiles Souscripteurs 1931-36. First Thus. Hardcover Hardcover. Near Fine Condition. 27cm x 21cm. xvi 218; viii 219-401; iv 402-498 2; 4 pages 16 plates 3 volumes bound in 1 with the suite of plates. Half leather gilt lettering top edge gilt marbled endpapers. Original printed wrappers bound in. Typescript index of plate locations bound in at rear. Text is in French. The first critical edition of the text and the first established directly from the autograph manuscript written by Donatien Alphonse François Marquis de Sade in the Bastille in 1785. The manuscript composed in minute script on a continuous paper roll was long presumed lost following the storming of the Bastille before resurfacing in the late nineteenth century and coming into the hands of the Berlin physician and pioneering sexologist Iwan Bloch whose foundational but flawed 1904 edition first brought the text into print. Following Bloch's death the manuscript entered French ownership often associated with the patronage circle of Charles de Noailles and Marie-Laure de Noailles a descendant of Sade enabling the Sade specialist Maurice Heine to prepare the present edition under their support. Working directly from the autograph roll Heine produced a transcription of far greater fidelity than Bloch's accompanied by a substantial critical apparatus keyed to the original manuscript and including a photographic facsimile as frontispiece. Heine's engagement with Sade was both scholarly and personal: he first encountered the work through Bloch's edition in 1912 later recalling most notably in the 1933 'Minotaure enquete' organised by Andre Breton and Paul Eluard that discovery as decisive. Pascal Pia would subsequently credit Heine with establishing the modern text of Sade. Issued in a limited edition of 396 numbered copies this example is one of 300 on velin de Rives.

19210053731921. Hardcover. Very Good. Exquisite and delightful manuscript account of a happy and prosperous marriage made as a commemoration on its Silver Anniversary which occurred in 1921. Folio. 38 by 27.5 cm. 10 leaves on card stock with original watercolored artwork on each page. Blue felt bevelled binding with stalks of tall grass painted in silver on the cover. The grass design repeats on the title page with the addition of cherubs and a highly ornamental painted placard bearing the title -- this placard is suspended from a stalk and held by one of the cherubs. The account begins with a young man Vienna leaving his love behind as he travels to Lyon. We are told how he misses his beloved and so follows their wedding in 1896. A stock market crash then leaves the desperate groom concerned about their future. The young family return to Vienna where he becomes a workaholic as his wife tends to the home filling it with bric-a-brac that speaks to their material well being. Finally there comes the anniversary celebration and the happiness from seeing their children grown and settled. This brief account doesn't do justice to the verse or paintings. The account is really just a few snapshots of their lives using words and pictures which work together to bring a dream-like glow to the reminiscences. Each page is framed by a decorative band of primarily blue set off by a floral festoon within it. Most pages have two illustrations with the verse written by a calligraphic hand. The illustrations are filled with a vigor and energy -- they almost seem to float above or hover over the page. We would guess that the anniversary couple's surname was Labin based on a door sign in the office scene and the company the husband worked for was named Abadie which may have been based in Paris. Beyond that we can not speak more specifically about the parties. Condition: the felt is rubbed and slightly sunned on front. The silver design is somewhat faded. Soiling along the bevelled edge. The contents are clean and bright. hardcover

This book is a wonderful combination of two Jews one who brought to France German literary tendencies and the other who brought to the Germans French artistic tendencies.

The story here recounts that in trans. and referring to the Haggadah " It was an old heirloom with ancient wine stains. It had come down from the days of her grandfather. The book contained many boldly and brightly colored pictures. As a little girl she had often looked at it so eagerly on Passover evenings." ; German Language; Folio - over 12" - 15" tall; JUDAISM HEBREW LANGUAGE Jewish Literature Kabbalah Judaica Jewish Studies Hebrew Talmud ; Signed by Illustrator .
