Inspired by the "gusts of memory" that rise up within him as he dips a Madeleine into hot tea the narrator discusses his fear of going to bed at night. He is a creature of habit and dislikes waking up in the middle of the night not knowing where he is.He claims that people are defined by the objects that surround them and must piece together their identities bit by bit each time they wake up. The young Marcel is so nervous about sleeping alone that he looks forward to his mother's goodnight kisses but also dreads them as a sign of an impending sleepless night. One night when Charles Swann a friend of his grandparents is visiting his mother cannot come kiss him goodnight. He stays up until Swann leaves and looks so sad and pitiful that even his disciplinarian father encourages "Mamma" to spend the night in Marcel's room.</p> Buccaneer Books hardcover

425319Chatto and Windus. Hardcover. Good. THERE ARE NO TARIFFS OR CUSTOMS DUTIES ON BOOKS. Five volumes in the early Phoenix Library set of Proust's 'Remembrance of Things Past' 'In Search of Lost Time' - in classic C. K. Scott Moncrieff translation. Chatto and Windus began publishing Proust's novel in split up volumes through their Phoenix series in 1929 stopping in 1936 before all the volumes could be published deciding instead to republish the novel in it's entirety in a new edition in 1941. As such no Phoenix set of 'Remembrance' is complete - they end after 'Cities of the Plain.' Available here are five of the eight existing volumes:- Swann's Way Volume 1 - 1929 Edition- Swann's Way Volume 2 - 1929 Edition- Within a Budding Grove Volume 2 - 1929 Edition- The Guermantes Way Volume 1 - 1930 Edition- The Guermantes Way Volume 2 - 1930 Edition There is moderate bookworm damage to the first few pages of Within a Budding Grove - Volume 2 - as seen in the photos here. The damage is contained relatively to only the first couple pages - up to about page 6 of the novel proper. Considering their age the condition of the books is high - pages are clean with some slight pencil marks and the dust jackets are in good condition despite some slight tearing to their spine.

Despite the great differences in time locations and disciplines between our respective fields of research we all faced similar situations: among the huge mass of written documents available to historians and that were eventually taken as sources in the historiography of science some had been well studied while others had been dismissed or ignored. This observation will seem obvious to historians whose daily work consists in shaping corpuses to raise new questions. The diagnosis has long been established that such selections related to the historians’ agenda and thereby reflected the ways in which historiography somehow belonged to its time. Yet it appeared to us that this diagnosis was insufficient and that the selective consideration of source material was also at least partly related to mechanisms of selection that occurred upstream from the historian’s classical work of shaping a corpus. Therefore we came to the idea that in order to write or to rewrite chapters in the history of science historians may benefit from relying on a critical analysis of the factors that along history shaped the documents that have become their sources or the collections from which they constitute their corpuses. It is to the development of such a branch of critical analysis in the history of science to its methods and to its benefits ―to be illustrated in carefully chosen case studies― that we suggest to devote a collective research and a book. We want to inquire into how the corpuses we form incorporate long sequences of selections and reorganizations that took place in history and that must be brought to light if we do not want various types of actors of the past to carve their choices and conceptions into our questions and conclusions.</p> Springer hardcover

Two pages each total 6pp. 12mo one with closed tear on fold but mainly good condition. 15 Oct. 1912 Amidst polite expressions of good will he acknowledges receipt of Marsan's edition of "las corespondance de Gérard de Nerval". He goes on to give a reference to a letter reprinted in a book recently published by the Bibliothèque Charpentie which might have escaped Marsan's attention. He denies having something ot do with a spelling error "je n'ai pas eu les épreuves entre les mains". "A propos de la fameuse Collection Georges Vicaire a éprouvé le besoin de me faire dire assez récemment qu'elle n'était pas encore àà la disposition des traveilleurs et ne le serait de longtemps. Ma foi je ne lui demandais rien du tout de cela. Pourquoi en ce cas s'en vauter! ."; 5 July "Pour le Peuple underlined j'ai d'abord copié le texte premier en date; puis je me suis borné à y mettre une sorte d'apparat critique notant les variantes surtout de ponctuation que done l'Artiste underlined: j'espère que grace à mon repérage vvous vous y retrouverez sans erreur. " Then he mentions Lénore underlined Chant Patriotique underlined. ". l'ouvrage La Grande Pologne underlined étant inconnu à la Bibliothèque. Mais peut-etre est-ce La Vieille Pologne underlined ou Gautier a mis son Wladislas III." His researches have uncoverd something "que je croyais etre de Gerard ."

Artiste mai 1855 douze vers qui sont ceux qui portent ce titre a la p.311 des Poésies de Levy 1877." He discusses detail at length. He makes points about "Le Christ aux Oliviers" and "Vision. A Théophile Gautier. la Fantaisie" commenting on punctuation. He is busy with his correspondent's "nouvelle liste". Note: "En 1912 il Jacques Madeleine reçoit de Marcel Proust le manuscrit de Du côté de chez Swann premier volume d’À la recherche du temps perdu. La fiche établie par Jacques Madeleine lecteur chez Fasquelle juge ainsi l'œuvre : « Au bout de sept cent douze pages de ce manuscrit . après d'infinies désolations d'être noyé dans d'insondables développements et de crispantes impatiences de ne pouvoir jamais remonter à la surface on n'a aucune aucune notion de ce dont il s'agit. Qu'est-ce que tout cela vient faire Qu'est-ce que tout cela signifie Où tout cela veut-il mener Impossible d'en rien savoir ! Impossible d'en pouvoir rien dire6 ! » Refusé chez Fasquelle tout comme chez Gallimard et chez Ollendorf le livre est finalement publié à compte d'auteur aux éditions Grasset." Proust's career could have ended with a Madeleine rather than begun with a madeleine old joke I expect. These letters were found in a bookshop in Toulouse - the home town I understand of Marsan.
