‎Louys Pierre‎

‎Aphrodite: Ancient Manners‎

‎New York: Illustrated Editions Co. Good with no dust jacket. 1932. First Edition. First Printing. Hard Cover. Quarter bound in publisher's black cloth over blue bevelled boards fore-edge deckle. Illustrated with full-page erotic B&W drawings by Frank J. Buttera. Pierre Lou�s 1870-1925 was a French poet and writer most renowned for lesbian and classical themes in some of his writings. He is known as a writer who sought to "express pagan sensuality with stylistic perfection." He was made first a Chevalier and then an Officer of the L�gion d'honneur for his contributions to French literature. In 1896 Lou�s published his first novel Aphrodite�Ancient Manners a depiction of courtesan life in Alexandria. It is considered a mixture of both literary excess and refinement and numbering at 350000 copies was the best selling work by any living French author in his day. Aphrodite was so successful that it started the career of Mercure de France. The success was due in part to a rave review by Fran�ois Copp�e and no doubt also to the libertine scenes throughout the book. Lou�s had previously only published limited run pamphlets. The book caused a scandal and reviewer Dorothy Parker noted how difficult it was to obtain in New York and that a play by George Hazelton based on the book was likewise successful because it was denounced as obscene by the mayor. Many erotic artists have illustrated Lou�s's writings. Some of the most renowned have been Georges Barbier Paul-�mile B�cat Antoine Calbet Beresford Egan Foujita Louis Icart Joseph Kuhn-R�gnier Georges Lepape Mariette Lydis Milo Manara Andr� Edouard Marty Pascal Pia Georges Pichard Frank J. Buttera Rojan Marcel Vert�s and �douard Zier. These illustrations are by American artist Frank J. Buttera. Translated from the French by Willis L. Parker. .
