Folio (206 x 327 mm). 8 parts (all published; in various editions, dated I: 1652; II-V; 1651; VI: 1652; VII: 1654; VIII: 1650) in one volume. Engraved half-title; (28); (28); (28); (28); (28); (28); (28); (28) pp. Letterpress with numerous woodcuts in the text. Contemporary black morocco (spine rebacked), covers blindstamped with giltstamped initials "S. B." and year "1666". Extremely rare: "unquestionably the most representative of all German song collections published in the 17th century" (Osthoff); also an important source for the study of German Baroque literature due to the poems of Simon Dach. Heinrich Albert (1604-51) was the cousin and student of Heinrich Schütz. "With Simon Dach, Albert formed the nucleus of the Königsberg poetic circle, which was of especial importance for the Baroque song" (Riemann). The poems of Dach, the "Prussian Opitz", were never published in a complete collection during his lifetime. - The legendary rarity of these "Arias" has been remarked upon even by E. L. Gerber in 1812: "In spite of the number of editions which Albert's works enjoyed, they have now become so rare that I have never seen a single note of his, although I have dedicated more than three decades of my life to the pursuit of musical products" (Neues historisch-biographisches Lexikon der Tonkünstler II, 48). - The richly illustrated engraved half-title, which actually belongs to part 8, has been bound first of all (lower edge trimmed and rebacked with old paper; final two letters of the word "Achter" erased, so as to form a common title to the entire collection: "Acht Theil der Arien theils geistlicher zu christlichem Leben und Sterben anreitzender, theils weltlicher zu geziemender Lust dienender Lieder"). Modern spine and endpapers. Occasional annotations in an old hand; one interleaved sheet of handwritten music; a few slight flaws repaired. Save for two slightly stained pages a very clean copy.

Folio (264 x 325 mm). Engraved title page, 1 p. of engraved dramatis personae, pp. 3-363 engraved notes. Plate number 1092. Contemporary red half morocco with giltstamped spine and cover title. First edition of the full orchestral score, with the libretto by Emanuel Schikaneder. In the "Allgemeine musikalische Zeitung" of 13 September 1815, the publisher Simrock claimed that it was "in accordance with Mozart's own wishes". First shown on 30 September 1791 at Schikaneder's Freihaus-Theater, the opera today counts among the most popular and most frequently performed ever. - Slight browning; occasional pencil annotations; a contemporary stitch-hole throughout the upper left corner. The highly appealing binding is insignificantly rubbed in places. Provenance: first in the library of the Berlin composer and musical educator Carl Friedrich Rungenhagen (1778-1851), a close friend of Zelter's, with his autograph ownership on the title page: "Von Fr. H-d am 13. 9br 1822 an C. F. Rungenhagen". Later in the collection of the classicist and musical scholar Friedrich Spiro (1863-1940) with his autograph ownership on the reverse of the title page (dated Berlin 1886) and stamps. Latterly in the collection of Pierre Bergé (1930-2017) with his bookplate inside the front cover. KV 620. RISM M 4772. Clément 1172. Riemann 616. Sonneck 119. Towers 680. Hirsch II, 681.
4to. 229 ff. With woodcut title border. Contemporary pigskin on 5 raised double bands, richly blindstamped. Wants clasps. Upper cover stamped "Bassus 1610". Of the utmost rarity. - The first attempt at a collected edition, put forth by the composer's sons Ferdinand and Rudolph Lasso, containing 516 motets and with a two-page dedication to the ruling duke of Bavaria, Maximilian (dated January 1, 1604). A total of six voices were published in separate volumes with the music printed in letterpress, together forming one of the most famous works in the history of music publishing. - Two small paper flaws in the title page have been repaired without loss to text or to the fine woodcut border. Very well preserved. RISM L/LL, 1019. Eitner I, 59. Wolffheim II, 1842. Hirsch III, 886. Leuchtmann I, p. 59. Title of the Cantus illustrated in: Leuchtmann/Schaefer, O. di Lasso.

Schönes Exemplar des unter Kurfürst Johann Georg II. von Sachsen aufgelegten Gesangbuchs, darin als erster Teil die insgesamt vierte Auflage von Heinrich Schütz' Psalter.

Cornelium Beckern verfasset, aufs neue aber, mit Heinrich Schützens [...] eigenen Gesang-Weisen, aufgeleget", "Neu-eingerichtetes Gesang-Buch Herrn D. Martini Lutheri", und - mit selbständiger Paginierung - das "Kirchen-Gebeth-Buch". Die erste und zweite Auflage von Schützens Psalter (SWV 97a-256a) waren 1628 und 1640 erschienen, die dritte erweiterte Auflage (SWV 97-256) erschien 1661. Schütz, der bedeutendste deutsche Komponist des Frühbarock, führte den neuen konzertierenden Stil mit obligatem Generalbass aus Italien ein und vereinigte ihn höchst wirkungsvoll mit der deutschen Bibelprosa. - Der Gesamttitel hinter die Widmung gebunden. Der prachtvolle doppelblattgroße Kupferstich "Schütz in der alten Dresdner Schloßkirche im Kreise seiner Kantorei" (Abb. bei H. J. Moser, Heinrich Schütz, 2. Aufl. 1954, nach S. 496), den das erste Blatt in Versen erklärt, findet sich ausfaltbar am Schluss des Bandes. - Durchgehend gleichmäßig leicht gebräunt; kleine Fehlstellen am Unterrand des Faltkupfers fachmännisch hinterlegt. Von bemerkenswert guter Erhaltung. Bittinger S. 30 ff. RISM S 2285.
Folio (274 x 350 mm). Title leaf, dedication leaf, 511 pp., engraved throughout. Original red morocco dedication binding with ornamental gilt spine and borders, giltstamped title and ornaments to covers. Gilt inner dentelle; leading egdes gilt. Blue silk endpapers. First edition of Spontini's most important and best-known opera. A superb copy, bound in sumptuous red morocco and decorated in the Empire Style, dedicated by the composer to Caroline Branchu, the famous black French opera soprano who played the title role of the young vestal at the première on 15 December 1807. The gilt title on the upper cover reads "Hommage d'Amitié / à Madame Branchu / par G. Spontini" and on the lower cover, below the monogram "CB": "De tout ce que je dois / Aux charmes de votre art / N'attendez pas que je convienne / Si vous acceptez votre part / Vous diminueriez trop la mienne". "La Vestale" was very well received and instantly achieved the status of a masterpiece. - Rose Timoléone Caroline Branchu, née Caroline Chevalier de Lavit (1780-1850) was born in Haiti, then the French colony of Saint-Domingue. Of mixed white and black ancestry, she was educated at the Paris Conservatory from the age of 16. As a singer attached to the royal court she is said to have been the mistress of Napoléon. - Some foxing and staining, imperceptible repairs to binding. Latterly in the collection of Pierre Bergé (his bookplate on the pastedown).
8vo. Engraved title, double-page engraved additional title (a view of Leipzig), (102) pp. with engraved notes in the text. Contemporary half vellum in modern half cloth box. Includes the facsimile reprint of the first edition, bound in half vellum (Leipzig 1964). Third edition, largely agreeing with the 1737 first: an important source for the history of song writing in the first half of the 18th century, influential for Viennese classicism and one of the first music editions by Breitkopf & Härtel. "Its engraved titles, imprinted notes and numerous charming woodcut vignettes make this one of the age's most delightful creations of book art" (cf. Mannheimer cat. 5, 1398 - this edition). Includes the frequently lacking frontispiece showing the double-page view of Leipzig. Two sequel volumes appeared in 1742-45. The author, who published all his works under his pseudonym "Sperontes", could by identified as J. S. Scholze (1705-50) only in 1885 by the musicologist and biographer of Bach, Philipp Spitta. - Binding rubbed with tiny flaws to covers; corners bumped. Margins slightly browned. This is the voucher copy from the library of the publishers Breitkopf & Härtel (their stamp on the title page); front pastedown has bookplate of the Leipzig publisher Oskar von Hase, who was trained at Breitkopf & Härtel and served as chairman of the Society of German Music Sellers from 1875 to 1901; later stamp of the musicologist Dr. Werner Danckert.

Includes 2 autograph letters signed by Roussier: Ecouis, 5 Feb. 1773, 2 pp., and Ecouis, 17 Sept. 1776, 3 pp.; each a 4to bifolium with integral address leaf, addressed to Trouflaut. A unique collection of 18th century literature on musical theory, annotated throughout by the priest Gilbert Trouflaut, canon of Nevers, including unpublished scholarly correspondence. Long the organist of the Nevers Cathedral and also employed as an expert consultant on the instrument, Trouflaut was also a noted naturalist who went botanizing with Jean-Jacques Rousseau and created the botanical garden of Nevers, where he also taught at the École centrale. Eitner (IX, 464; misspelling his name as "Trouffaut") quotes his treatise "Sur les Clavecins en peau de duffle" in the Journal de musique (1773). The works contained are individually: I) "Théorie de la musique" by C. L. Ballière de Laisement (1729-1800), a versatile scholar who knew J. J. Rousseau, d'Alembert, Diderot and Voltaire well and wrote several librettos for comic operas (cf. Eitner). "In his 'Théorie de la musique' (Paris, 1764) he developed a system based on the harmonic series of the hunting-horn; a similar system, evidently unknown to him, had been presented by G. A. Sorge in 1741. The 'Théorie' had some followers (notably Canon Jamard and Abbé Feytou) and won Rousseau's praise, but was harshly criticized by later theorists, in particular J.-B. de La Borde" (New Grove). Trouflaut's handwritten ownership (dated 1772) on title; numerous underlinings and annotations, with a scale in the margin of p. 71. - II) Principal theoretical work of the Paris musician N. L. Le Dran, "which tried to introduce a different designation for the chords in the doctrine of the figured base" (cf. Eitner). It was attacked by La Borde with the same vehemence as Ballière's theory had been. Trouflaut's handwritten ownership (dated 1772) on title; a few corrections by his hand. - III) A principal work of musical theory by the Abbé Roussier (1716-92), "self-instructed in music but inclining toward Rameau" (cf. Eitner). Here, he "also dealt with problems of musical temperament, [rejecting] contemporary systems in favour of a Pythagorean tuning" (New Grove). Presentation copy from the author with Trouflaut's note next to his ownership on the title (1772). Numerous annotations and marginalia, some quite extensive. Roussier's correspondence with Trouflaut is bound before the "Memoire". - IV) At the end, one of Roussier's two known compositions, a motet based on Psalm 150 ("Laudate Dominum in sanctis ejus"). Author's presentation copy with Trouflaut's autograph note on the title. On the verso, almost completely covered with Trouflaut's annotations, the scholar also pasted two lines of printed music from "L'art du facteur d'orgues" by Don Bedos de Celles. - Some waterstaining to margin and gutter throughout, more severely affecting the "Mémoire sur la musique des anciens" near the end and the "Pseaume CL" throughout with some loss to legibility. Although the volume was undoubtedly compiled this by Trouflaut himself, his original binding must have been so badly damaged that it was replaced by another one in the 18th century style sometime during the early 20th century. The front flyleaf contains Trouflaut's very extensive notes on the theoretical opinions of M. Guignet (maître de musique de la cathédrale de Nevers) as well as instructions for the original binding ("1# de relieure pour cet in 4° chez Tiger derrière la fontaine St. Benoit, place Cambray a côte de la porte cochere du college de Cambray"). The bookplate of the book's last owner before rebinding, the bishop of Nevers, Dominique-Augustin Dufêtre (1796-1860), has been glued onto the inside of the new upper cover. I: New Grove II, 94. Eitner I, 320. - II: Eitner VI, 105. - III: New Grove XVI, 277. Eitner VIII, 339. Hirsch I, 528. - IV: New Grove XVI, 277.
4to. 2 parts. (4 pp.), 5-16, 10 ff. Text in Greek and Latin. With woodcut printer's device as well as several floral headpieces and initials. Later full vellum with handwritten spine-title. First edition. - Greek text and Latin translation of the "Introduction to Harmonics" by the Greek scholar Cleonides, the pupil of Aristoxenus, erroneously ascribed to Euclid, and of the "Division of the Scale", about whose true authorship there is no agreement. Edited by the French mathematician and educator Péna (ca. 1528-68), the book reflects the influence of classical mathematicians on Renaissance music theory and was a key work for the wide distribution of music theory of the classical period. - The attribution of the "Eisagoge" to Euclid (or to Pappus in some manuscripts) is incompatible with the Aristoxenian approach adopted in the treatise, namely that "the scale is formed of notes separated by a tone identified by the ear" (DSB IV, 430). Cleonides's treatise is the clearest account of the technical aspects in the work of the philosopher Aristoxenus, who defined key terms of music theory, including the interval, whole tone and semitone, pitch space, and rhythm. - The other musical work here ascribed to Euclid, the "Sectio canonis", expounds a quite contrary theory, namely "the Pythagorean doctrine that the musical intervals are to be distinguished by the mathematical ration of the notes terminating the interval [...] All that it seems possible to say with certainty is that Euclid wrote a book entitled 'Elements of Music' and that the 'Sectio canonis' has some connection with it" (DSB). Wechel printed both works in Greek as the first part and followed them with both Latin translations in the second. - Modern binding a little soiled and occasionally scratched; upper cover slightly bowed. Contemporary handwritten table of contents to second flyleaf (preserved from the first binding), mentioning another work by Péna, his translation of Euclid's "Optica & Catoptrica", also published in 1557, which appears to have been bound with the "Eisagoge" at the time. Second half shows a few light waterstains to the margin. Traces of an erased handwritten ownership on title-page. Rare; not seen at auction for nearly two decades. RISM BVI 296. Gregory/Sonneck 85.

Folio. (16), 105, (3) pp. With folding engr. title page and 23 folding engr. plates by Matthäus Küsell after Ludovico Burnacini. Marbled half calf (c. 1900) with giltstamped title to gilt spine. This splendid work, published on the occasion of the formal opening of the Court Theatre in 1667, contains the libretto and stage designs of the eponymous opera, produced in honor of the marriage between Emperor Leopold I. and Infanta Margareta Teresia of Spain. The "Pomo d'oro" is considered one of the 17th century's most significant achievements of the musical stage; Burnacini's imaginative stage designs are known only through these illustrations, congenially engraved by Küsell. The two additional plates which Vinet mentions, depicting interior views of the auditorium, are not contained in any of the copies cnsulted for comparison; they were produced only after Küsell had completed the series and were added to a very small number of copies. As they are not mentioned by the printed table of plates (ff. B1r-B2v), the work may be considered complete thus. - Occasional browning and waterstaining; several plates with signs of old remargining and restoration; slight defect to one plate (some loss to image, retouched). Attractive, uncommonly well-preserved copy in comparison with the five copies sold at auction during the past three decades (four of which were incomplete, wanting the engr. title page or one of the 23 stage-designs). From the collection of the Viennese brewer Joseph Wuensch (1843-1916) with his bookplate and library label on the front pastedown. VD 17, 39:126553Z (two copies, collations agreeing with the present copy). Kat. der Ornamentstichslg. Berlin 4127 (as here). Vinet 669 (25 plates). Palau 230.777. Thieme/B. V, 264. AKL XV, 253.

Ich würde sagen, Beethoven war seine große Liebe, alles andere war schön und akzeptabel, aber geliebt hat er nur Beethoven und Bach", erzählt Erna Otten-Attermann in einem Interview aus dem Jahr 2004/2005 mit Irene Suchy über ihren Lehrer Paul Wittgenstein ("Der Musiker im wunderschönen Schloß". In: Empty Sleeve. Der Musiker und Mäzen Paul Wittgenstein. Innsbruck u. a., Studien Verlag, 2006, SS. 37-43, 41). Es ist auch bekannt, daß Wittgenstein - um im Bild zu bleiben - zeitlebens einige Geliebte unterhielt; daß auch Louis Spohr zu diesen hinzuzuzählen ist, ist jedoch - von einem kleinen Hinweis abgesehen - bislang nicht bekannt gewesen. E. Findell erwähnt in einem Aufsatz in der Music Review (32/1971), daß Richard Strauss mit Paul Wittgenstein gewöhnlich Duette gespielt hätte und daß sie beide dieselbe Leidenschaft für Spohrs Kammermusik entwickelt hätten, und auch an anderer, etwas entlegenerer Stelle gibt es vereinzelt Hinweise aus Wittgensteins Vorliebe für Spohr. In zwei bislang unpublizierten Briefen Wittgensteins an Erich Wolfgang Korngold aus den 1920er Jahren - feilgeboten vom Wiener Antiquariat Inlibris Gilhofer Nfg. - ist wiederholt von Spohr die Rede. In einem Brief vom 25. V. 1923 bedauert er, einer Einladung zu einem Hauskonzert nicht die genaue Adresse hinzugefügt zu haben: "Verzeihen Sie diese Gedankenlosigkeit und die daraus für Sie entstandenen Unannehmlichkeiten. Mir war es doppelt leid, da die beiden Spohr'schen Stücke recht brav gespielt worden sind. Wunderer [d. i. der Oboist Alexander Wunderer, 1877-1955] hat sie seinen Schülern ordentlich einstudiert; er hat, so wie ich, eine Vorliebe für diesen jetzt ganz vernachlässigten Meister. Und ein Meister ist er, das verrät jede Note [...]". Wenig später folgt eine zweite, diesmal mit allen notwendigen Daten versehene Einladung: "Donnerstag den 1. November, nachmittags 4 Uhr, führt Wunderer mit seinen Schülern zwei Doppelquartette von Spohr bei mir in der Alleegasse auf. Hätten Sie Lust es anzuhören? [...]" (Br. v. 22. X. 1923). Diese keineswegs beiläufige Beschäftigung mit Spohr wird besonders an Hand des vorliegenden Bestands deutlich, der 39 (davon mehr als 24 in Erster Ausgabe) von Spohrs rund 300 Werken umfaßt. Keine flüchtige Geliebte also, sondern eine ernsthafte Beschäftigung mit dem Komponisten und Geigenvirtuosen. - Detaillierte Verlistung auf Anfrage.

4to. 3 parts in one volume. (12), 210, (6) pp. With woodcut printer's device, a headpiece and a few woodcut illustrations in the text. Numerous examples of sheet music. Contemporary full vellum with handwritten spine-title. First and only edition. - Rare treatise on musical theory by the Italian composer Berardi (1636-94), a highly prolific artist and theorist particularly focused on church music. It includes the "Osanna" from Berardi's "Iste confessor" mass (pp. 69-78) and displays his broad knowledge of relevant publications on the subject, as well as his admiration for other scholars, including Athanasius Kircher, Marin Mersenne, and his teacher Marco Scacchi, all of whom he frequently quotes. The "Miscellanea" discuss, inter alia, the canto fermo, as well as the history of counterpoint and its practice in the 17th century (pp. 112ff.), promotes a more liberal and frequent use of dissonances (pp. 82ff.), and analyses the manner and form of tempi generating different musical effects (pp. 56ff.). It explains the musical forms of the day as well as the relations between classical and modern music, rejecting the "uniformity of the past and preferring melodic composition instead" (cf. MGG). - Head and foot of spine slightly rubbed; covers a little bowed. Paper evenly browned and brownstained throughout; upper margin somewhat waterstained. Handwritten ownership of the friar Griziottus of Piacenza, as well as of Charles Missieli to title-page. Missieli's ownership is further stamped in four places, partly erased from the title-page, p. 122, and final page, but remaining on p. 196. A few marginal notes and highlights in pen and pencil.

Notes concernant Passage Breton, Paris n'existe pas, tapuscrit de poème, projets de scénarios, etc.Robert Benayoun fut une figure centrale du surréalisme d'après-guerre, critique, cinéaste, écrivain, traducteur, collagiste. Il entre en contact avec Breton en 1948 et mène à partir de cette époque une intense activité au sein du groupe. Ses contributions à Medium, Le Surréalisme même, La Brèche, Bief, etc. sont innombrables. Les domaines de l'humour, du monde anglo-saxon et du cinéma relevaient de «sa juridiction», selon les termes de Breton. Cependant, sa vaste culture lui permit d'aborder tous les aspects du surréalisme, il prend une part essentielle à l'organisation des expositions, à la rédaction de pamphlets et de tracts et fait connaître le mouvement par ses livres tels L'Érotique du surréalisme ou Le rire des surréalistes. Comme artiste il a participé à plusieurs événements. «Il a révélé un œuvre déjà anciennement entreprise de collagiste expert en allusions scabreuses et bouffonnes conflagrations» dit le Dict. du surréalisme p. 55.Traducteur de talent, il fait découvrir au public français l'humour de d'E. Lear ou encore une Anthologie du nonsense, ainsi que des traductions de Ch. Ford, W. Irving, etc. Mais Benayoun est principalement connu aujourd'hui comme critique et auteur de livres sur le cinéma. Il fut critique à L'Âge du cinéma dont il fut l'un des fondateurs en 1950, à France Observateur, Le Point et surtout à Positif dont il était un des principaux contributeurs. Ses livres sur Woody Allen, Buster Keaton, J. Houston, J. Lewis, Resnais, Tex Avery, Le dessin animé après W. Disney, etc. furent, souvent réédités et demeurent des ouvrages de référence sur ces sujets. «Robert Benayoun avait commencé il y a quelques années un livre sur Steven Spielberg avec l'accord du réalisateur de Jurassic Park mais la maladie l'a empêché de le terminer.» dit sa nécrologie dans Libération du 22 oct. 1996. Benayoun fut enfin cinéaste. Si son grand projet, entrepris avec son ami Brunius, d'un film sur l'histoire du mouvement surréaliste ne vit finalement jamais le jour, il a utilisé une partie des scènes tournées à St.-Cirq-Lapopie pour ce projet dans son documentaire Passage Breton. Ses deux films sont Sérieux comme le plaisir (1975) et Paris n'existe pas (1972) avec S. Gainsbourg qui reste régulièrement programmé sur les chaînes de cinéma.

- 1945, 22,3x27,9cm, (24) f., 340 feuillets. - Typescript of L'Intelligence en guerre with handwritten manuscript additions 1945 | 22.3 x 27.9 cm | (24) f. | 24 handwritten sheets hold with a pin & 340 leaves of typescript «We can say without contradiction that this concern for the truth, this love for justice, have never been manifested so brightly as during these dark days where the French had lost the use of speech.» 340 page typescript of the work L'Intelligence en guerre by the resistant writer-journalist Louis Parrot, accompanied by handwritten notes concerning the title, half-title, preface and first bibliography pages (4 pages in total) and the index of names quoted at the end of the volume (6 pages in total). Several folds and rust marks from the metal fasteners. he typescript includes handwrittencorrections and changes, in particular 25 fully handwritten pages, and additions in the margin on several tens of pages, featuring fully in the version published in 1945 by La Jeune Parque publishers. With L'Intelligence en guerre, writer and literary critic Louis Parrot, a leading figure of the underground press during the Second World War, friend of Eluard, Picasso, and Aragon, identifies a panorama of French resistant thought that does justice to the forgotten Maquis as well as the most emblematic writers of the underground press. he publication, at the end of the war, of this anthology of fighting poets, where the literary chronicle meets the history book, is also a political act committed to the selection of «heroes» of the intellectual resistance and an implicit condemnation of the supporters of the 'wait and see' policy. By sending this typescript to a journalist friend, also part of the resistance, Parrot entrusts this brother in arms with the sum of a work whose visible changes and additions show the political choices of its author, as well as his aesthetic inclinations. This typescript is a unique document whose in-depth study will serve as the basis for the his oriography of literary resistance. he recipient of the typescript, Auguste Anglès, is one of the main players in the Lyonnaise resistance press, creator of the underground newspaper Confluences. Parrot therefore addresses a version of his work, which highlights the difficulty as well as the need for completeness of his task, to this enlightened judge, who is very familiar with the intellectual networks, as shown by the handwritten note on the board chemise: «My dear Angles, Here is a copy, unfortunately not with even the major changes and corrections; they have increased the book by more than 100 typed pages. There were a lot of mistakes that were fixed. So forgive me for giving you a copy on which nothing has been corrected. I hope that it will, however, help you. Best wishes, Parrot» he handwritten note addressed to Auguste Anglès shows that it is a working document («a copy on which nothing has been corrected»), prior to the corrected proofs sent to the publisher. The typescript presents two stages of the text, increased by several marginal or full-page corrections, which, as Parrot indicates «have increased the book by more than 100 typed pages,» feature systematically in the text published in 1945. We note some important turnarounds, in particular the replacement of Georges Duhamel by François Mauriac as the figurehead of the resistance within the Académie Française. Other bundles of typed pages are added to this, enigmatically entitled «petit blanc» «little white,» which were incorporated later - the passages on the writers Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Jean-Paul Sartre and Jean Giraudoux (added to the chapter on the Lettres françaises in the final version). These late additions mark the controversial inauguration at the Pantheon of the literary resistance of writers such as Saint-Exupéry (renounced by General de Gaulle) or Sartre, whose attitude during the Occupation was the subject of much controversy and who is indebted to Camus for his participatio

- Cannes 1952, 20,9x27cm, 90 feuillets. - Le palmarès de Queneau Dossier des fiches du jury remplies par Raymond Queneau pour le Festival de Cannes de 1952 soit 90 feuillets presque tous remplis de sa main. Un seul film manque hélas à l'appel, Dans la tempête (Arashi no naka no hara)de Kiyoshi Saeki, l'ensemble est sinon complet de toutes les critiques des longs et courts métrages en compétition au festival cette année-là. Amusant ensemble des critiques de Raymond Queneau, alors membre du jury du Festival de Cannes. Ces fiches retracent les impressions acerbes ou élogieuses de l'écrivain au visionnage des films. L'année 1952 voit se dérouler la cinquième édition du jeune Festival de Cannes avec comme président du jury Maurice Genevoix. Le grand prix est remporté par deux films, Deux sous d'espoir (Due soldi di speranza) de Renato Castellani et Othello d'Orson Welles. Sur la fiche de ce dernier, l'avis de Queneau est sans appel : "Number one". Quant au film de Castellani, le critique est dithyrambique : "enfin ! du cinéma - intelligent, vivant, humain. Deux ou trois passages ont de la grandeur. Et ce n'est pas prétentieux.", il juge sa vedette féminine, Maria Fiore, "épatante". Du côté français, c'est Fanfan la Tulipe qui est en lice et Queneau n'est pas tendre : "ça aurait pu être un film agréable, mais le dialogue gâche tout." Gina Lollobrigida est "quelconque" et Gérard Philippe "pas bon, cette fois-ci". Le film obtiendra malgré tout le prix de la mise en scène. Il trouve Marlon Brando, qui sera sacré "meilleure interprétation masculine"; "T.B." dans Viva Zapata d'Elia Kazan. L'un de ses coups de coeur est incontestablement Le Medium de Gian-Carlo Menotti qu'il qualifie d'"EPATANT/ un film ! un opéra ! saisissant ! poignant !" et qui remportera le Prix du film lyrique.
