III: IIXIV130; II140; IIXXXVIII1791 blank; LXXIV22431 blank p. Half calf. 23 cm Ref: STCN ppn 301147841; Graesse 6/2481; Ebert 24057; Brunet 51487 Details: Backs ruled gilt and with 5 raised bands. Red and green morocco shield in the 2nd and 3rd compartment Condition: Bindings worn especially at the extremes Note: Daniel Albert Wyttenbach is today considered one of the most influential humanists of the 18th century. He was a worthy successor of the great scholars Hemsterhuis Valckenaer and Ruhnken. 'Wyttenbach's academic fame and merits lie in the area of Greek philology as he is regarded as one of the founding fathers of modern Greek philological scholarship. He developed and set new standards regarding the study of grammar syntax and styles as well as in the interpretation and translation of Greek classical texts. His philosophical views were committed to the principles of humanism and Enlightenment. . His edition of the 'Plutarchi Chaeronensis Moralia' became a standard text for students and scholars of his time and many generations after'. H.F. Klemme & Manfred Kuehn 'The Bloomsbury Dictionary of Eighteenth-Century German Philosophers' London 2016 p. 871 § Daniel Wytttenbach was born at Bern in Switzerland in 1746 offspring of an old-established Swiss family of scholars and theologians. In Marburg and Göttingen he discovered his passion for the Greek classics. He came to Holland in 1770 to study classics under the most famous classical philologists of that time Tiberius Hemsterhuis Lodewijk Caspar Valckenaer and David Ruhnken. He graduated in 1771 and shortly after became professor at the college of the Remonstrants at Amsterdam. He occupied this post for eight years and in this period the first part of the Classical Review 'Bibliotheca Critica' to which he was the principal contributor appeared. From 1779 he was professor at the precursor of the University of Amsterdam the Athenaeum Illustre where he taught history and Greek and Latin literature. He held this professorship until 1799 and then returned to Leyden as Ruhnken's successor for 17 years. He published an edition of the Moralia of Plutarchus with Latin translation 1795-1806 a work of permanent value. On the death of Ruhnken he became the most influential classical scholar in the Netherlands. Ruhnken was immortalized by him in: 'Vita Davidis Ruhnkenii' Leiden & Amsterdam 1799. About this biography Sandys observes: 'The highest praise must be assigned to his 'Life of Ruhnken' a work of absorbing interest to his scholarly contemporaries which still retains its importance as a comprehensive picture of the Scholarship of the Netherlands and not of the Netherlands alone in the age of Ruhnken'. Sandys 2465. Wyttenbach died in 1820 Collation: Volume 1 pars 1: 4 A-H8 I2 leaf I2 verso blank §2 advertisement of Petrus den Hengst pars 2: pi2 leaf pi1 blank A-H8 I6; pars 3: pi2 leaf pi1 blank A-H8 I6; pars 4: pi1 A-H8 I6.

". ce que vous dites de l'effroyable danger qui nous menace combien de fois ai-je essayé de le faire comprendre à des parlementaires soit-disant ""patriotes"" ""nationaux""."" Autograph letter signed to Léon Daudet about the favorable review of his work denouncing the perils of the rise of the Third Reich
Berlin: S. n. 1934. Fine. S. n. Berlin s. d. circa 1934 13 x 18 cm trois pages Autograph letter signed by Xavier de Hauteclocque 39 lines in black ink on Continental Hotel Berlin letterhead written from Berlin and addressed to Léon Daudet thanking him for: "". l'éloge que vous avez eu la bonté de consacrer encore à mon bouquin sur l'hitlérisme."" ""the praise you were kind enough to devote once again to my book on Hitlerism"" which he had published in the monarchist and Germanophobic daily Action Française. Although having sounded the alarm concerning the grave dangers posed to Europe by the Nazi party's rise to power Xavier de Hauteclocque despairs of being heard even by supposedly nationalist or patriotic circles: "". hélas ! monsieur ces crétins chamarrés de tricolore non seulement ne m'ont pas cru mais j'avais l'impression terrible qu'ils ne m'entendaient même pas."" ""alas! sir these cretins bedecked in tricolor not only did not believe me but I had the terrible impression that they did not even hear me."" ""les rebuffades désespérantes que j'ai essuyées de la part de gens en qui trop de nos malheureux concitoyens vient des 'remparts de la Patrie'."" ""the despairing rebuffs I suffered from people in whom too many of our unfortunate fellow citizens see the 'ramparts of the Fatherland'."" It is for this reason that he praises the clairvoyance of the Action Française newspaper and more particularly Léon Daudet's articles regarding the question of Nazi Germany: "". c'est vous qui nous ragaillardissez nous les journalistes qui allons chercher des renseignements authentiques dans le camp d'en face."" ""it is you who reinvigorate us we journalists who go to seek authentic information in the opposing camp."" Fold marks inherent to postal dispatch. Decorated with the Croix de Guerre in 1914-1918 at 18 he had volunteered early on July 15 1915 to join the 3rd Hussar Regiment at Saumur his father and brother having fallen in battle in 1914 first cousin of Marshal Philippe Leclerc de Hauteclocque Xavier de Hauteclocque was a military man journalist and writer who ceaselessly denounced vigorously through his writings and reportage the dangers of Adolf Hitler and his party's seizure of power in Germany. In 1935 in Paris he died poisoned by the Nazi regime whose works such as La Tragédie brune À l'Ombre de la Croix Gammée or Nuit sur l'Allemagne disturbed them. S. n. unknown

Xavier FORNERET
Mère et Fille enrichi d'une rarissime lettre autographe signée
Paris: Michel Lévy 1855. Fine. Michel Lévy Paris 1855 11.50 x 18.50 cm broché et deux pages sur un feuillet First edition. Very scarce and sought-after like all of his writings. This play is inspired by his tumultous life namely the poisoning attempt he allegedly suffered from the hands of his lover Jeanne Sarrey. With a very rare autograph letter signed by Xavier Forneret one of the few surviving manuscripts of this bohemian Romantic rediscovered by Surrealists. The scandalous genius attempts to have Mère et fille performed at the Théâtre de la Gaîté. Letter dated by the author May 27 1854 addressed to playwright Charles Desolme. Two pages in black ink on a bifolium small tear along the fold no damage to the text. Forneret a fundamentally marginal literary figure who evolved outside the Parisian literary circles had great difficulty staging his plays in Dijon and Paris. Mère et fille lays bare ""the feelings of the family stripped of the movement of incidental characters and the clatter of a grand staging"" in the author's own words. Forneret's attempts in this letter to stage the play with Hippolyte Hostein then director of the Théâtre de la Gaîté were in vain. The play premiered the following year at the Montmartre theater and Forneret spent a fortune promoting it. It was scheduled to be performed - along with Jamais another of his plays now lost - once again at the Théâtre de l'Ambigu which reneged on its commitment. Well acquainted with the courts of justice Fourneret successfully sued his director Charles Desnoyers in 1856 who defended himself by declaring that it was ""impossible to stage the plays because they were unplayable"". Nearly a century later Forneret's works mostly self-published and neglected by his contemporaries were rediscovered by the Surrealists who finally proclaimed Forneret's literary importance with other outcasts like Lautréamont and Raymond Roussel. ""My dear Monsieur Desolme According to our conversation yesterday about the return of my manuscript I regret that M. Hostein in committing this act of convenience had not told me that there was a way of coming to an agreement if I consented to a few possible modifications of scenic requirement; for I do not claim to have written a masterpiece to which it is forbidden to subtract or add an iota. If therefore M. Hostein would agree to keep the title of my play the final events of each act and agree between us in a single session if this is possible on the changes to be made to my work . if on the contrary M. le Director of la Gaîté were to make another piece of my drama to the extent that I would be ashamed to sign it a work that would no longer be mine I would be forced to withdraw; indeed what would be left for me - I ask you or any man of good logic and good faith . I'm leaving the day after tomorrow Monday but I'll be back soon if we don't come to an agreement so determined am I that Mère et fille will find somewhere to be played . Michel Lévy unknown
