189983424s. l.: S. n. 1899. Fine. S. n. s. l. s. d. 1899 15 x 19.50 cm 8 feuillets Autograph manuscript signed entitled ""La force et la destruction"" about Paul Adam's novel La Force which has just been published 8 leaves in blue ink with some corrections. The article was certainly published in the Revue Blanche. In this laudatory critique of the novel La Force published by Paul Ollendorff: "". c'est un très grand poème épique."" "". it is a very great epic poem."" as well as of Paul Adam's already prolific work: ""Un écrivain qui à trente-cinq ans avant ce livre en a signé vingt-trois autres dont aucun n'est médiocre et dont dix sont de premier ordre."" "". un inépuisable agitateur d'idées d'aperçus de rêves et de beautés."" ""A writer who at thirty-five before this book had signed twenty-three others none of which is mediocre and ten of which are first-rate."" "". an inexhaustible agitator of ideas insights dreams and beauties."" Camille Mauclair demonstrates to the readers of the Revue Blanche of socialist and anarchist allegiance that Paul Adam is one of them: ""Mais le peuple ne sait peut-être pas combien ce romancier cet artiste de style est près de lui dévoué à sa cause véritablement son apôtre en face de la bourgeoisie. c'est en luttant de front contre les iniquités les laideurs et les égoïsmes de la classe possédante que M. Adam a imposé son nom."" ""But the people perhaps do not know how close this novelist this artist of style is to them devoted to their cause truly their apostle in the face of the bourgeoisie. it is by fighting head-on against the iniquities ugliness and selfishness of the possessing class that Mr. Adam has established his name."" Despite success and unlike many of his fellow poets and novelists Paul Adam has not gone astray: "". un mandarin des lettres refugié dans des rêves compliqués et indifférents à l'époque aux souffrances et aux injustices."" "". les autres décadents égotistes ou symbolistes. se réfugiaient prudemment dans la tour d'ivoire ou dans les honteux culte du moi en attendant l'académisme ou le suffrage des snobs."" "". a literary mandarin taking refuge in complicated dreams and indifferent to the times to suffering and injustices."" "". the other decadents egoists or symbolists. prudently took refuge in the ivory tower or in the shameful cult of the self awaiting academicism or the approval of snobs."" and is animated by an acute political and social consciousness: "". sa voix fut une des plus éloquentes parmi celles qui saluèrent dans l'anarchisme les beaux côtés de sa morale civique l'idéal internationaliste la haine des castes le relèvement de l'individu considéré comme unité et commune mesure de la société."" "". Au moment où la panique multipliait autant les dénonciateurs que les poltrons M. Paul Adam signa résolument un magnifique éloge de Ravachol.""' "". his voice was one of the most eloquent among those who greeted in anarchism the beautiful aspects of its civic morality the internationalist ideal the hatred of castes the elevation of the individual considered as unit and common measure of society."" "". At the moment when panic multiplied denouncers as much as cowards Mr. Paul Adam resolutely signed a magnificent eulogy of Ravachol.""' Finally Camille Mauclair precisely analyzes the significance of ""La force"": Avec une frappante justesse Paul Adam oppose la force véritable la hauteur d'esprit à la suprématie de l'épée."" ""M. Paul Adam nous montre l'éternel symbole de Prométhée de l'intelligence créatrice enchaîné entre la Force et la Violence."" "". étant adversaire du chauvinisme et du militarisme. de mettre en lumière tous leurs motifs de gloire pour mieux en montrer l'écoeurant non-sens la nullité la débilité devant la vie pensante et l'action féconde."" ""With striking accuracy Paul Adam opposes true force elevation of spirit to the supremacy of the sword."" ""Mr. Paul Adam shows us the eternal symbol of S. n. unknown
