Émile Boutmy was the founder of the École libre des sciences politiques which would later become the Institut d'études politiques de Paris now widely known as Sciences Po. Wrappers slightly toned at the margins inevitable minor edge tears and small losses consistent with the fragile nature of the pamphlet. Inscribed and signed by Lucien Lévy-Bruhl: ""A Emile Durkheim affectueusement L.L.B."" In January 1906 Lucien Lévy-Bruhl professor at the 'École libre des sciences politiques' since 1885 took up his pen to pay a final tribute to the director and founder of this prestigious institution Émile Boutmy. He sent a copy of his work – printed in a small number of copies – to his friend and collaborator Émile Durkheim. This exchange between two major figures of French sociology preceded a pivotal period for this field of study: that same year both were appointed professors at the Sorbonne University enabling sociology to gradually become an academic science Laurent Mucchielli Robert Crawford.  A rare inscription that brings together on the same leaf Lucien Lévy-Bruhl a faithful disciple of Durkheimism and its founder Émile Durkheim. Imprimerie Chaix unknown
