1924145085Paris: René Kieffer Éditeur et Relieur d'Art 1924. Stendhal's great study of love crystallized in a superb art deco Kieffer binding First Kieffer edition in a striking Kieffer binding number 50 of 50 copies on japon from an edition limited to 1050 copies only of this art deco edition of Stendhal's great study of love which was originally published in 1822. In De l'Amour known in English as On Love Stendhal shared his concept of "crystallization" as "the process whereby the lover discovers new perfections in the beloved. This first crystallization is most often reinforced by a second one" Schehr. An argument however can be made that "Stendhal's crystallization has mainly been read from the masculine subject position however sympathetically. In the formula for crystallization Stendhal counts five steps to the completeness of it the fifth culminating in 'proof of love'. That is when the beloved loaded with all the imaginary perfections with which he can endow her grants him sexual access le don de merci in courtly terms. This moment marks of course precisely when a negative crystallization begins - for her. Having 'given herself' as 'proof' of love to him she finds that his final step is her first one into the state of the cruellest doubt did he just use me. Masculine and feminine positions within crystallization thus overlap only at this step and take opposing attitudes toward the same central experience" MacCannell. René Kieffer 1875-1964 worked for ten years at the famed Chambolle-Duru bindery in Paris before establishing his own workshop in 1903 and going on to become one of the leading binders in Paris. In 1909 he launched himself in the edition of illustrated luxury books. He learned the trade from Georges Crès and from Auguste Blaizot who joined his name to the first editions of René Kieffer; even the Mercure de France entrusted him with the direction of some volumes for their own editions. From 1919 to 1923 he executed bindings designed by Pierre Legrain for Jacques Doucet and his workshop quickly became important producing up to 2000 volumes a year with bindings of all kinds from the most luxurious to the more modest one. His bookshop opened in 1923 and his three activities were then combined in one place. Kieffer's consistent endeavour was to retain large poorly published texts have them illustrated by the great names of the time and when possible offer them in luxury or publisher's bindings. 2 vols octavo 196 x 138 mm.
