""Woman writer salonnière and friend of philosophers and famous writers in the 18th century Louise d'Épinay is the author of Memoirs whose originality is situated on two levels: from the point of view of content first because it is a history of her family and the literary events of the century a history however 'self-reflective' and filled with her own feelings and reflections; then from the point of view of form since it involves a singular combination of letters memories and first-person diary pages and short third-person narratives.""

1943152544Paris: Éditions Pierre Trémois 1943. Inscribed by Marie Laurencin First and limited edition number 515 of 999 copies; this copy inscribed by Marie Laurencin to the poet and dramatist Jean Tardieu at the foot of her illustration on p. 38: "A Jean Tardieu bien sympathiquement Marie Laurencin Janvier 1944". A beautifully produced book particularly so considering wartime conditions. Painter printmaker and stage designer Marie Laurencin 1883-1956 is "known for her delicate portraits of elegant vaguely melancholic women" Britannica. She studied at the Humbert Academy in Paris and after an introduction to Picasso became involved with the avant-garde. Getrude Stein was one of her earliest supporters. She was romantically involved with Apollinaire whose work she here illustrates: a group of poems including "Marie" and "Crépuscule" which is dedicated to her. The recipient Jean Tardieu 1903-1995 published several poetry collections in the 1930s and after the war became a moving force in French radio. A number of his plays were staged and he was linked with the work of the Theatre of the Absurd. "Alone among the playwrights of the avant-garde Tardieu can claim that his work spans the entire gamut of exploration" Esslin p. 227. The publishing house of Pierre Trémois founded in 1922 specialized in illustrated books. The poems for this publication were gathered by Renée Garcia who later co-founded the literary quarterly Cerf-Volant and comprise contributions by among others Mallarmé Jules Laforgue Apollinaire Paul Claudel Jean Cocteau Léon-Paul Fargue Rilke and Paul Valéry. Each poem has an accompanying pochoir frontispiece the illustrators including André Derain Jean Cocteau André Lhote and Hermine David.
