190617961906 Correspondance d’Armand Simon (1906-1981) adressée à Henri Mercier (1917-2005) de la librairie bruxelloise La Proue. Artiste en marge du surréalisme belge, ermite de l’imaginaire, connu pour nourrir son art par ses lectures, Armand Simon vécut entouré d’une collection de plusieurs dizaines de milliers d’ouvrages. Cet ensemble donne à voir sur pièces son insatiable appétit de livres, et permet d’esquisser certaines constellations de sa carte du ciel littéraire. Les commandes donnent souvent l’occasion à des commentaires plus ou moins brefs. Parfois le propos est plus personnel. Le lien de fusion entre sa vie, son œuvre et ses livres apparaît avec force, parfois en quelques mots : « J’ai fait dans ma vie ce que je voulais intensément. Contre vents et marées, c’est peut-être ce qui a permis que je connaisse à présent un peu de succès. J’aurai [sic] acquis les livres que j’aimais Moi. ». Lorsqu’il évoque le Bruxelles de sa jeunesse, les plus vibrants passages concernent les librairies et les livres, dont il se souvient avec moult détails, par exemple, de « reliures affolantes ». Il convoque aussi des amis d’entre ses souvenirs : « René Magritte quand il vint chez moi avec Scut et Rigot en Août 45, trouvait que j’habitais une sorte de finis-terrae. Il est vrai qu’il était véhiculé par une auto du ministère à essence rationnée ». En 1965, Simon confirme à Henri Mercier sa participation à l’exposition collective Le Cabinet Maldoror, hommage à Geert van Bruaene (La Proue, 9-21 janvier 1965). Six ans plus tard, il lui écrit posséder, au fil d’une amitié de 49 ans, l’ensemble des publications d’Achille Chavée, dédicacées, qu’il se refuse à vendre à la pièce.C’est encore au sujet de sa collection qu’il manifeste un très rare signe de mécontentement. Après avoir manqué d’acquérir trois ouvrages de Hanns Heinz Ewers, il râle de ne pas avoir été prévenu plus tôt : « Ce sont des livres qui passent une fois dans l’existence. Ce sont des ouvrages qui se situent exactement dans l’esprit de ceux que je collectionne depuis plus d’1/2 siècle ». La lettre la plus ancienne (1963) évoque la projection du film Le Ballet paraphrénique (réal. Éric Duvivière) chez un de ses collectionneurs. Après avoir donné une définition de la pathologie « un dément qui vit une vie seconde […] et ses visions d’un monde second peuvent être dépourvues de toute angoisse. Le paraphrène vit seulement une autre vie de caractère obsessionnel et « fantastiquement » luxuriante », il s’excuse du long développement pour conclure « des dessins exécutés il y a 15 ou 20 ans préfiguraient étrangement nombre de séquences du Ballet ». Cette idée revient dans une autre lettre : « Depuis trente ans je n’ai dû dessiner que des images à caractère obsessionnel ». Ces correspondances où Simon s’exprime sans détour constituent surtout une masse bibliographique précisément datée durant les quinze dernières années de sa vie. Parmi les dizaines d’auteurs cités : Jarry, Tzara, Birot, Apollinaire, Follain, Guillevic, Genêt, Segalen, Saint-Pol Roux, Butor, Jaccottet, Bonnefoy, Paz, Agrippa d’Aubigné, Casanova, Hugo, Banville, Gautier, Rebeel, Claudel, Hermant, Audiberti, Tardieu, Vitrec, Arrabal, Artaud, Beckett, Tanning, Vian, Stas, Baillon, Douassot (Fred Deux), Carco, Tournier, Troyat, Martin du Gard, Lou s, Bataille, Fini, Sabatier, Schwob, Noël, Durrell, Moravia, Tellier, Faulkner, Lowry, Yourcenar, Camus, Mac Orlan, Borgès… "L’artiste est un funambule - il ne faut pas lui demander de choir dans la cage aux lions. Il faut savoir renouveler ses contorsions - j’en parle par expérience". Joints trois talons de chèques postaux.

Original half calf decorative boards; very worn joints splitting extremities well worn. Title page signed by J. G. Kohler; bookplate of Ing. Dr. Edmund Neusser. First edition dedicated to the famous mathematician Leonhard Euler 1707-1783. Klugel based his writings on that of Euler's work on optics. In his parts VII and VIII he deals with the telescope and especially the microscope. / Euler's own work on the theory of the achromatic microscope was written as early as 1762 and 1771 when he dealt with the subject more fully. In 1774 Euler's pupil and friend Nicolas Fuss wrote a little book on how to construct an achromatic microscope. Klugel translated that work in 1778 and then followed that with this more thorough treatment being his Analytische Dioptrik also 1778. Due to the crudeness of design of the objective made in 1791by Francois Beeldsnyder 1755-1808 a colonel in the Amsterdam cavalry Mayall asserts and others uphold this view that he feels the discussion of the dates of origin or this instrument are at best unclear. :: Mayall.

195838022New York: John Wiley & Sons 1958. First edition of this classic in management science. Octavo original cloth. From the library of Nobel Prize-winning economist John Harsanyi with his signature on the front free endpaper . 'Outside the Carnegie group we should like to acknowledge especially our many hours of fruitful work and discussion with Robert A. Dahl on the subject of influence measurement and the help and guidance that John C. Harsanyi provided for our treatment of the relation between game theory and other theories of conflict' p. vi. 'Simon was attracted to the exciting intellectual environment emerging at the Carnegie Institute of Technology in Pittsburgh. After moving to Carnegie in 1949 Simon stayed there for more than five decades. At Carnegie Simon collaborated on work that established the field of organization theory. The founding work was a major study done with James G. March published as Organizations. The book continued the argument that decision makers are not able to act in an objectively rational manner; rather they are constrained by both cognitive and external limitations. So instead of assuming that each decision maker scans all possible alternatives and chooses the one that maximizes expected utility Simon argued that decision makers instead use 'satisficing' as a criterion for making decisions; they choose the first alternative that looks 'good enough.' March and Simon wrote in Organizations 'Most human decision making whether individual or organizational is concerned with the discovery and selection of satisfactory alternatives; only in exceptional cases is it concerned with the discovery and selection of optimal alternatives.' . . . One of Simon's insights was that the observed complexity of human behavior arose from simple and general underlying mechanisms that were applied to a complex task environment. Simon illustrated this with his famous metaphor of 'the ant on the beach.' The ant's goal is to reach some distant food. While the ant's path to the food seems very complex twisting and turning most of the apparent complexity is due to the grains of sand to be traversed. The complexity of the environment rather than the complexity of mechanism within the decision maker gives rise to the observed behavior. 'In solving problems' March and Simon wrote 'human thinking is governed by programs that organize myriads of simple information processes - or symbolic manipulating processes if you like - into orderly complex sequences that are responsive to and adaptive to the task environment and the clues that are extracted from that environment as the sequences unfold' ' Mie Augier & Edward Feigenbaum 'Herbert A.
