15620Sand George. Pseudonym of Amandine Aurore Dupin Baronne Dudevant was a prolific writer and early feminist. Handwritten Autograph Letter Signed December 29 1858 while she was working on her book Elle et Lui. In French. 1 page on a larger folded sheet measuring approximately 8"x5" inches. <br/><br/>Sand was an internationally famous novelist and essayist whose work promoted the strength of women. She was also known for her many love affairs including with the composer Chopin. In this Autograph Letter Signed in 1858 while working on her famous book "She and He" Sand writes in French in part: ".I don't have time to see you tonight and I await the letter of Montigny who will tell me when he will come. But I want to assure you about your manuscript which I have reread and of which I am very happy." Signed "G. Sand" . She adds a seven line post script "inquiring news about the little Tittine" then she adds "the little peri-Gois is saved. I kiss Eugenie and all of your family. Happy New Year to all." Reputed as an intelligent writer and an apt editor Sand was highly involved in the literary community and this letter is a fine example of her collaboration in exchanging manuscripts with her contemporaries. Elle et Lui would become Sand's vehicle for recounting her tumultuous affair with Alfred de Musset. Letter is on her Personal embossed stationary. Original fold lines but otherwise in very good condition with dark and legible text and signature "G Sand.". unknown books
15351George Sand pseudonym of Amandine Aurore Dupin Baronne Dudevant was a prolific writer and early feminist. 2 page Autograph Letter Signed in French dated 4 June 1863. No place. To close friend and politician Emile de Girardin.<br/><br/>Both Sand and the recipient of her letter Emile de Girardin were politically progressive siding with the working class and poor and advocating for women's rights. Sand was an ardent supporter of the 1848 Revolution in which both Sand and Girardin held positions as members of government. However she was appalled by the violence of the Paris Commune and openly criticized it. The famed French feminist author sends Girardin her article and praises his role in "the liberty and progress" that has transpired following the Parisian elections. Reflecting on the "laws of repression" she notes that the people who resist progress are "generally unbecoming and loose imbeciles." A fascinating letter documenting Sand's honest views on human progress and the hurdles that need to be overcome in attaining it. Letter is in very good condition with blue ink clear and dark save for some of Sand's original smudges typical of her hasty pen. Light streak across left of front page. A political and inspiring letter from the early feminist author. unknown books
