197275103Paris 1972. Fine. Paris 25 juin 1972 21 x 27 cm une page sur un feuillet enveloppe jointe Autograph letter signed by Roger Caillois addressed to Arnost Budik; one page written in black ink on a sheet of tissue paper. Envelope included. Some punch holes in the margin of the letter and envelope not affecting the text as well as some folds inherent to the folding of the missive. Roger Caillois thanks the Czech writer for the ""issues of Gravida that he was kind enough to send him"". Arnost Budik was indeed part of the editorial committee of this Belgian surrealist magazine and seems to have solicited a contribution from Caillois: ""Please find enclosed a text that I have just completed."" Caillois was alongside the surrealists only very briefly from 1932 to 1935 and here seems to apologize for this distancing: ""Surrealism never much appreciated descriptive-meditative poetry where I believed later to find my path. So if the text does not suit you have no qualms about returning it to me quite simply. I would understand very well."" unknown

196875105Paris 1968. Fine. Paris Mardi 27 février 1968 13.50 x 20.90 cm une page sur un feuillet Autograph letter signed by Roger Caillois addressed to Dominique Aury; one page on a leaf written in blue ballpoint pen. Interesting letter concerning the article ""Mémoire interlope"" which would appear in issue 185 of the sixteenth year May 1968 of the Nouvelle Revue Française. At this time Marcel Arland and Jean Paulhan were both directors of the review which they had revived from its ashes in 1953. Roger Caillois's correspondent Dominique Aury also known under the pseudonym Pauline Réage sat on the Reading Committee of the famous Revue. This letter concerns a ""note"" that Roger Caillois asks Dominique Aury not to publish: ""Pour la note comme je l'avais dit à Arland je renonce à la publier. Notre ami la prendrait surement comme une sorte de coup de poignard dans le dos une trahison d'autant plus délibérée que je n'écris pour ainsi dire jamais de note. Elle n'en vaut pas la peine."" ""Regarding the note as I had told Arland I'm giving up publishing it. Our friend would surely take it as a sort of stab in the back a betrayal all the more deliberate since I practically never write notes. It's not worth it."" We could find no trace of this enigmatic note which Roger Caillois is impatient to recover: ""Retournez-la moi voulez-vous. J'en ferai peut-être le noyau d'une étude plus étendue où j'essaierai qu'apparaissent moins irritants que dans ce condensé les rapprochements litigieux."" ""Return it to me would you. I might perhaps make it the core of a more extended study where I will try to make the contentious connections appear less irritating than in this condensed version."" unknown
