Johst, Hanns, Schriftsteller (1890-1978).
Eigenhändige Sentenz mit U., eh. ausgefülltem Formularteil und eh. Namenszug. Oberallmannshausen am Starnbergersee, o. D.
1 S. Folio (223:282 mm). Albumblatt mit gedruckter Bordüre, gedr. Fußzeile "Beitrag zum Selbstschriftenalbum 'Deutschlands Zukunft'" und gedr. Formular für biograph. Daten, aufgezogen auf einen Bogen Pergamentpapier (ca. 330:344 mm). "Deutschland? . . . Keiner weiß, wo es anfängt, keiner, wo es aufhört. Es hat keine Grenzen in dieser Welt . . . Man hat es im Herzen . . oder man findet es nirgends und nie . . . / Frundsberg in 'Propheten' [...]". Geschrieben als Beitrag für die von Friedrich Koslowsky im Berliner Eigenbrödler-Verlag herausgegebene Faksimile-Anthologie "Deutschlands Köpfe der Gegenwart über Deutschlands Zukunft" (1928). - Hanns Johsts antisemitische, völkische Ansichten kamen bereits in seinem genannten Stück "Propheten" (1922) zum Ausdruck. Die demokratische Verfassung diente in seinen Werken als Sündenbock für ungelöste Probleme der Gesellschaft. Bertolt Brecht schrieb sein Drama "Baal" als Gegenentwurf zu dem "Einsamen" von Johst, dessen Werk er ablehnte. Auch waren es diese ideologisch-politischen Motive, die zum Bruch zwischen Johst und dem von ihm einst bewunderten Thomas Mann führten. Johst verbuchte während der Zeit des Nazi-Regimes seinen wohl größten Erfolg mit dem Drama "Schlageter". Koslowsky 34.

Jolivet, André, French composer (1905-1974).
"3 Croquis pour piano" (K 58a). Autograph musical manuscript signed. Paris, June 1932.
Folio (ca. 275 x 327 mm). 11, (5), 2 pp. In ink and pencil on staved paper with 6 systems of 2 staves, as well as 24 staves respectively. In contemporary red wrappers with handwritten cover-title. Unpublished manuscript of the piano cycle comprising three compositions titled "Défilé" (marked "Modéré, mais bien cadencé"), "Soir" (marked "Lent"), and "Poursuite" (marked "Vif"). The first two went on to be arranged for harmonic orchestra in 1935 and 1936, and were subsequently published under the title "Soir et Défilé" in 1937 (Éditions Sociales Internationales). Jolivet had already orchestrated "Soir" for the small orchestra of Marius-François Gaillard in 1935. The cycle premiered at the Société Nationale on 25 February 1933, performed by the pianist Monique Haas. - The first two "croquis" bear numerous annotations for orchestration in crayon and pencil; "Défilé" is crossed out in blue crayon. Following the 11 pages of the "croquis" is a revised version of "Défilé" (3 pp.) as well as a pencil draft for an orchestration of the same for small orchestra (title-page and 2 numbered pages). - With 5 stamps of the "Société des auteurs, compositeurs & éditeurs de musique", dated 18 July 1932, as well as one stamp of the "Commission d'examen des bulletins". Wrappers loose, some slight marginal tears. Kayas, André Jolivet (Paris, 2005), pp. 235f. Hilda Jolivet, Avec André Jolivet (Paris, 1978).

Jolivet, André, French composer (1905-1974).
"Sonate pour piano et violon" (K 57). Autograph musical manuscript signed. Paris, spring 1932.
Folio (ca. 275 x 327 mm). 12, 5, 13-37, 15 pp. Ink on staved paper by Néocopie Musicale with 3 systems of 4 staves, as well as 10 staves respectively. In contemporary red wrappers with handwritten cover-title. One of Jolivet's first major works, which remained unpublished until 1989 (Salabert), described by the French violinist and leading interpreter of Jolivet's works, Devy Elrih (1928-2012), as "embracing a new musical language, and a reinvention of notation for violin and piano, as well as the relation of the two". Elrih goes on to characterize the composer's intention to "express himself free of any references to earlier works in this domain [...] as a 27-year-old man, full of life, lyricism and determination". - The sonata, with a duration of 13 to 15 minutes (as noted by Jolivet at the head of the manuscript), comprises three movements: "Ramassé", "Librement", and "Bousculé". The first movement also appears in the prelude of the 1930 work "Prélude et Grave pour violon et piano", revised in 1932 (K 44). Following the first movement (pp. 1-12), the second movement (pp. 13-17) was crossed out in crayon, page 13 bearing the note: "Refait: voir ondes, no. 1 des 3 poèmes pour ondes", referring to the 1935 composition "Trois Poèmes pour ondes Martenot et piano". The revised version of the second movement (paginated 1-5) is inserted between the first movement and the crossed-out second movement. The third movement comprises pp. 18-37. In the 15-page part for violin adjacent to the piano score, the second movment (pp. 6-7) is also crossed out. The violin part includes fingerings added in a different hand. - Analyzing the piece, the musicologist Lucie Kayas concludes that "the whole sonata produces a feeling of heterogeneity of the consecutive tonal, modal and dodecaphonic keys, as if, in contrast with the manner shown by the polytonal works of Jolivet's early youth, an idea of collage prevailed, now through juxtaposition rather than mere simultaneity". - The first movement was performed at the Société Nationale on 2 December 1933 by Gisèle Kuhn and Raoul Visa, while the complete sonata premiered at the Société Nationale on 9 February 1935 with André Huot (violin) and Olivier Messiaen (piano). - With three stamps of the "Societé des auteurs, compositeurs & éditeurs de musique", dated 26 June 1934 (one rather faded), as well as one stamp of the "Commission d'examen des bulletins". Several corrections and annotations in crayon and pencil. Wrappers with several small flaws; spine rebacked with tape. Kayas, André Jolivet (Paris, 2005), pp. 115-117.

Jolly, Philipp von, Physiker (1809-1884).
Eigenh. Brief mit U. München, 5. VIII. 1876.
2 SS. 8vo. An Karl Sonklar von Innstädten: “Die gütige Zusendung Ihrer hochgeschätzten Werke 'Leitfaden der Geographie' u. 'Gebirgszüge der Hohen Tauern' macht es mir zur angenehmen Pflicht den verbindlichsten Dank im Namen der geog. Gesellschaft Ihnen auszusprechen [...]”. - Jolly wurde 1854 als Nachfolger Georg Simon Ohms an die Universität München berufen, wo er vor allem über Experimentalphysik las. Er erfand mehrere Apparaturen, die nach ihm benannt wurden, darunter ein Luftthermometer und eine Federwaage. 1878-81 fanden in München seine berühmt gewordenen Messungen der Erddichte statt, für die innerhalb der Univ. ein Turm errichtet wurde. - Der Geograph und Generalmajor Karl Sonklar von Innstädten (1816-1885) zählt neben Friedrich von Simony und Anton von Ruthner zu den Pionieren der Alpenerforschung; als geographischer Schriftsteller hat Sonklar "durch gründliche und vielseitige Beobachtungen über Gletscher, hydrographische, meteorologische und biogeographische Erscheinungen, besonders die Höhengrenzen, die er seinen wissenschaftlichen Beschreibungen beschränkterer Gebiete der Alpen einverleibte, wissenschaftliches Material von Werth dargeboten und zugleich die Methode der Länderbeschreibung geklärt" (ADB). Neben militärwissenschaftlichen Abhandlungen in den Bereichen der Taktik und Kriegsgeschichte veröffentlichte er auch ein kunstwissenschaftliches Werk, das nach dem wohlwollenden Urteil der Zeitgenossen "in keiner Anstalt, in welcher über Kunst vorgetragen wird, fehlen" dürfe (Wurzbach). - Aus der berühmten Autographensammlung des Adalbert Freiherr von Lanna (1836-1909).

4to. 3 pp. on 2 leaves. A remarkable letter to Ludwig Marcuse who had published "Sigmund Freud. Sein Bild vom Menschen" the year before: "[...] Unfortunately in writing about Freud's personality in the first chapter you have suffered the same fate of the many other approaches to the subject. It seems always to stir some unconscious conflicts which lead to serious misinterpretations and incorrect hypotheses which only add to the distorted legends of that personality which are so frequent. It even affects the capacity to quote correctly simple facts even when they are perfectly clear in my biography. Thus Freud did not see his mother naked between the age of 2 and 2½, but precisely when he was three and a half (S. 17). Freud's difficulty in expressing his angry emotions was that he could not make them literaturfähig, not literarisch-historisch (S. 25). Prof. Putnam was not present at the first Psa Congress (S. 35); the only one he ever attended was the second. Freud's Eisenbahnangst, which you say was not neurotic, was certainly neurotic and could lead to fainting fits in the railway station [...] No one who knew Freud personally would ever have thought of him as either melancholisch or a Grobianus. He had excellent social manners and a constantly cheerful temperament to the end of his life. He once referred to himself as a 'cheerful pessimist', but he explained carefully that what people meant by pessimist was realist: a sceptic who doubted the practicability of achieving idealistic visions (such as the communist one) [...]". - On stationery with printed address.
