Louis ARAGON
Lettre autographe signée
Grandcamp-les-Bains Grandcamp-Maisy 1914. Fine. Grandcamp-les-Bains Grandcamp-Maisy s. d. ca 1914-1920 13.50 x 21 cm une page sur un feuillet remplié Autograph letter signed addressed to a correspondent whom we have not been able to identify. Written from the Grand Hôtel de Grandcamp-les-Bains Calvados in blue ink on a folded sheet of white paper. A transverse fold inherent to the posting of the letter and four small perforations affecting the text but not impeding its reading. The mention of Grandcamp-les-Bains - where Aragon seems to have been only once during the summer of his seventeenth year - and the signature - of an early form - lead us to think that the letter could have been written in the summer of 1914. Philippe Forest in his biography of Aragon confirms that it was indeed at Grandcamp-les-Bains where his family had rented fifty rooms in a large seaside hotel to accommodate family and friends that the future poet learned the news of mobilization. The handwriting less rounded than on manuscripts prior to the 1920s however seems to us later and we are therefore not in a position to confirm the date of 1914. unknown

Louis CALAFERTE
Lettre autographe signée ""c'est l'immobilisme chez ces gens qui ne prennent plus aucun risque d'édition.""

Lyon 5 Mars 1978 21 x 27 cm 2 pages sur un feuillet Letter autograph dated March 5 1978 signed by Louis Calaferte two pages to an unidentified bookseller friend 33 lines in black ink written from Lyon. Usual traces of minor folds of a letter slipped into an envelope. In his missive full of solicitude esteem and respect for the work of writing of his unfortunate correspondent who wishes to publish his manuscript Louis Calaferte apologizes first of all for the delay independent of his will taken for to answer him: ""I waited waited waited - always hoping to be able to bring you a happy news concerning the possible edition of your work of bookstore"" to then confess to him and to criticize ""a certain immobilism at those people who do not take anymore no risk of editing and are more fond of imbecility of the genre ""best-seller"" than books relating to a certain erudition "" . Louis Calaferte unsuccessful intermediary between this writer and the world of Parisian publishers is ""sorry because in my opinion it seems to me that an edition of this type would have been necessary."" He proposes during his next visit to Paris to hand him the manuscript which he has unsuccessfully proposed to the publishing houses and which he calls ""your notebook"" or to bring it to him in his bookstore more later. Enffin Louis Calaferte symbolically concludes his letter with a ""sorry for this failure I beg you to believe in my esteem"". unknown

Louis Eugene, Duke of Württemberg (1731-1795).
Autograph letter signed. Strasbourg, 10 July 1772.
4to. 2 pp. A letter of thanks from the Duke of Württemberg for assistance received by way of his good friend Nicolas Maillot de la Treille, court chaplain and advisor to Elector Karl Theodor. The Duke fears, however, that Maillot has enthused too much about him. A planned meeting with the addressee would be postponed due to adverse circumstances, including the illness of one of his daughters and himself. Louis Eugene hopes to be able to leave the next day and, after four or five days on the road, reach Paris: "Je ne pois assez vous témoigner combien je suis pénétré des soins officieux dont vous daignez me prévenir d'une manière si obligeante. Je ne puis les attribuer qu'à l'amitié de M. L'Abbé Maillot, l'ami le plus chaud que je connoitre. Mais aussi j'ai tout bien de craindre qu'il ne vous ait communiqué les préjugés beaucoup trop avantageux qu'il a contracté en ma faveur [...] Une de mes filles est tombée malades quelques jours avant [...]". - Paper slightly browned, in good condition.

Louis II de Bourbon, prince de Condé, French prince, general, and pretender to the throne (1621-1686).
Autograph letter signed. No place, but probably Château de Chantilly, Oise, 5. III. 1683.
4to. 1 p. on bifolium with integral address panel. Two black wax seals. To a Monsieur Forget, probably the nobleman Jean Forget, esteemed for his expertise in falconry, discussing the Prince's most recent acquisition: a Labrador Falcon (Gerfaut d'Islande) just brought in by a local peasant, which he intends to leave in the hands of a courtier named Bernard. The animal does not appear to be hurt, and in particular the wings were not damaged in the capture, but it does seem a bit ruffled, and the Prince would like the animal looked over by Forget. Would he like to send a man to collect the bird, or should the Prince have it delivered by one of his falconers?. - "Un paisan de deus lieus d'icy ma aporté ce matin un gerfau d'islande qui a vos rerueles dens un panié. Je l'a mis entre les mains de bernar qui ma promis d'en avoir grandsoin. Il ne paroit pas qu'il aie de mal; il n'a point de francs rompues aux ailes; il ce a quelques unes un peu froisées, mais bernar dit que ce n'est rien pour rien qu'en le prenan on ne luy ait point fait de mal dans le corps. J'attendray d'avoir de vos nouvelles avant que de le recevoir. Mandes moy si vous voulez envoier icy quelqu'un pour vous le portir ou si vous voulez qu'on vous le renvoie; en ce cas il envoirai un de mes fauconiers vous le portir [...]". - The Prince of Condé fought for France in the Thirty Years' War, but at its conclusion turned against the monarchy with fellow nobles outraged in what became known as the Fronde rebellion. The coat of arms Condé uses in his wax seals is not that of the Condé branch family, but the house of Bourbon itself. The letter was, however, sent well after his rebellion (and subsequent rehabilitation) during his countryside retirement, which he spent in the company of literary greats such as Bossuet, Pierre Nicole, and Bourdaloue. - A special appreciation of falconry ran in the family of the de Forgets: a descendant, Claude-Édouard, marquis de Forget, would serve under Louis XVI as commandant général de la fauconnerie du Roi. - Traces of old folds; some wrinkling, leaves numbered "no 8" and "no 9" in an old hand. Generally very well preserved with both seals in excellent condition.

Louis XII, King of France (1462-1515).
Letter signed ("Louis"). Genoa, 4 Sept. [1494].
Large oblong 8vo. ¾ p. With address. Written as Duc d'Orleans to the Duc de Bar, thanking him and giving him instructions: "[...] delivrer et mettre hors de gallere par force Jean Lucas [...] Vueillez escripre a voz gens et officiers de pardeca Que Ilz vueillent mettre a pleine delivrance led[it] Jehan Lucas Et vous me ferez plaisir tres grant [...]". - Counter-signed by Jean Coterau, treasurer to Louis XI, Charles VIII, and Louis XII. One day previously, the army of King Charles VIII of France had crossed Mont Ginèvre and thus started the French army's first Italian campaign for the Kingdom of Naples, marking the beginning of the Italian wars, which were to last until 1559. Charles had detached Louis with an army of 10,000 men which were to support the efforts of the fleet. The French fleet defeated the Neapolitans, and on Sept. 8, four days after the writing of the present letter, the Duke achieved a decisive victory over the Neapolitan troops, which had landed at Rapallo east of Genoa. - Some brownstaining and with insignificant paper defects, some touching the signatures. Traces of a seal; slight edge damage.

Louis XIV, King of France (1638-1715).
Autograph letter signed. Versailles, 12. VI. 1697.
8vo. 2 pp. With sealed autograph envelope "à mon fils le conte de Toulouse". Framed and glazed (double-sided, 370 x 339 mm). Insightful letter to his son Louis-Alexandre de Bourbon, Count of Toulouse, during the Nine Years' War: "Je suis content de lestat que vous m’avez envoié de la Cav[ale]rie je voy avec plesir la quantité de beaux rég[imen]ts qu il y a il faut travailler a remettre les autres cest ce que vous devés bien mettre dans la teste des officiers. Jay veu avec plesir la petite carte que vous mavés envoiée ou tous les camps d’Aht [!] et de ses environs sont marqués. Continués a faire tout ce que vous devés et a voir tout ce que vous pourrés pour essaier de devenir tel que je vous desire" ("I am happy with the condition that you have sent me of the cavalry. It is with pleasure that I see the quantity of beautiful regiments that there are, work needs to be done in order to fix the others. That is what you must get into the heads of the officers. I saw with pleasure the small map that you sent me, where all the camps of Aht and is surroundings are marked. Continue to do all that you must and see to everything that you can in order to try to become as I want you to be"). - The Siege of Ath in present-day Belgium lasted from 15 May 1697 to 5 June, when the allied garrison capitulated to the French. The French commander Vauban was praised for the efficiency and speed at which his troops captured the eight-bastion fortress that Vauban himself had designed 25 years earlier. This feat put great pressure on the allies to negotiate the treaty of Ryswick that would end the war on 30 October 1697. - Louis-Alexandre de Bourbon (1678-1737) was the last legitimate son of Louis XIV. At the age of five he was named Admiral of France, and following his participation in the Nine Years' War on the Spanish Netherlands front, he rose to the honorary rank of lieutenant general of the King’s armies. In his actual military career, Louis-Alexandre de Bourbon successfully commanded the French fleet in the Battle of Málaga (1704). During the regency he served as minister of the Navy. - With minor browning and tears to the folds.

8vo. 2 pp. on bifolium. With sealed autograph envelope "à mon fils le conte de Toulouse". Framed and glazed (double-sided, 370 x 339 mm). Beautiful letter to his son Louis-Alexandre de Bourbon, Count of Toulouse, during the Nine Years' War: "Jay receu vostre lettre du 19 avec les Cartes qui y estoient jointes continués a men envoier ou tous les camps que larmée ou vous estes soient marqués et travaillés autant que vous pouvés a vous instruire pour estre un jour capable de servir lestat. Mandés moy tout ce qui se passera qui en vaudra la peine. Il ne me reste qua vous assurer de mon amitié qui durera tant que vous la meriterés par la vostre et par vos actions" ("I received your letter of the 19th with the maps that were attached to it. Continue to send [maps] to me, where all the camps of the army of which you are part are marked, and work as much as you can in order to instruct yourself, so that one day you will be able to serve the state. Inform me of every change that is worth noting. I can only assure you of my friendship, which will last as long as you deserve it by yourself and by your actions"). - Louis-Alexandre de Bourbon (1678-1737) was the last legitimate son of Louis XIV.

Louis XIV, King of France (1638-1715).
Letter signed ("Louis" in secreterial hand). Saint-Germain-en-Laye, 18 Feb. 1679.
Folio. 9 pp. on double leaves. With address. To Isaac de Pas (1618-1688), Marquis de Feuquières, French ambassador to Sweden. In French, but mostly written in secret cipher, above which the recipient has transcribed the French meaning. Louis explains that, despite appearances, France cannot continue to support Sweden due to the superior naval power of England and is unable to send a flotilla of ships in her aid. Instead, he orders movement of French land forces; he also approves the suggestion of marriage between the King of Sweden and the daughter of the Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg: "[...] A squadron of 20 or 30 ships that I might send to Sweden's aid would be too weak to withstand the forces of England; nor is it suitable to the state of my affairs to [...] support this war by putting to sea a flotilla equal to that Crown's [...] Sweden's affairs are everywhere in such a bad state, yet she does not blame her own ill conduct. I have even learned that her ruin in Prussia is so great that it is no longer possible to negotiate for peace with them until [Sweden is] convinced of the nearly insurmountable obstacles to naval assistance that they have expected from me [...] Since the greatest interest of the King of Sweden in marriage is that it contributes to make peace and to re-establish him in the Empire, I would view somewhat indifferently the choice that he would make [...]" (transl.). - The Treaties of Nijmegen, signed in 1678 and 1679, brought an end to the Dutch Wars. Sweden was among the last of France's allies to cease hostilities, as it had tried to regain lost territories. - Countersigned by secretary of state for foreign affairs Simon Arnauld de Pomponne (1618-1699). Minor scattered toning; short closed separations at folds.

Louis, Chevalier de SADE
Ensemble complet des archives du Chevalier de Sade The Complete manuscript archives of Louis Chevalier de Sade
s. l. Londres London Paris Toulon. 1791. Fine. s. l. Londres London Paris Toulon. 1791-1832 12 000 feuillets de divers formats en feuilles Unpublished political scientific and historical archives The complete manuscript unpublished papers of Louis Chevalier de Sade 1753-1832 author of the Lexicon politique and cousin of the famous Marquis. The important geopolitical historical and scientific archives of a learned aristocrat a privileged witness of the end of the Ancien Régime the French Revolution the Consulate Empire and Restoration. A unique fund of research on the implementation of a constitutional monarchy. Exceptional collection of the Chevalier Louis de Sade's personal archives the cousin of the Marquis de Sade representing 12000 handwritten pages including several thousand unpublished and written by his hand. The Chevalier shows a thought system that he describes as «holistic» including historical political and scientific reflections. Louis Chevalier de SADE If we take the French Revolution as the birth of an experiment both secular and political the Chevalier de Sade was without doubt one of its early critics. Not only of the Revolution which had many other detractors but of its political ideology which would go on profoundly to impact the two hundred years that followed. What he calls «positive politics» is «based on reasoning and experience». «The theory did have some attractions for me; I studied it with care I savored its principles. Now I see their value only in terms of the impact of their implementation what we've seen them produce in the peoples of which history has given me knowledge. This is my method; I know that it is all in all the opposite of the methods utilized by the men who have governed us and written our constitutions to this very day without deviation. This continuous divergence between what has been done and what should never have been done increased my confidence in the path to be followed and at the same time fortified my determination to keep to the views I had adopted of judging laws by the historic consequences they entail rather than by the lyrical supposedly conclusive metaphysical arguments with which these innovators continually and still to this day assault us.» The Chevalier de Sade who saw the world in terms of his own time and place could be nothing other than a Royalist. There were practically no examples of democracy in the history known to the Chevalier apart from the Classical democracies of Greece and Rome which had been experiments only in very elitist forms of democracy. These were very well known to this political scientist whose papers contain 7000 pages dedicated to the history of the Classical world. The republic ushered in by the Revolution was more than just a political system it was the realization of a philosophical political ideal. And while most of those opposed to the new regime saw in it above all a threat to their personal situations their religious beliefs or even more simply their habits the writings of the Chevalier de Sade show no such dogmatic influence; or at least he never uses dogma to justify his arguments. Louis de Sade a gentleman without a fortune and without significant ties was conservative through philosophical and historical conviction and not out of interest. It is with this perfect intellectual honesty that he studies the essays memoirs and political or theoretical works of his contemporaries. Running counter to Enlightenment thought the Chevalier's view of society owed very little to philosophy. Though he puts together a serious theoretical history of the development of Man from the condition of «savages» to the forging of various societies he does not posit Man's ideal nature as some of his contemporaries did. Rather the Chevalier examines the gap between nature and the civilized being without passing moral or philosophical judgment as was the fashion at the time. «The political error that damned Europe in the 18th unknown

" Et puis aussi gratitudes pour tout le soin qu'elle a pris de Mme Gen Paul !. Laquelle ne donne aucune nouvelle. Quelle vacherie encore . Comme c'est amusant !"" Signed autograph letter addressed to Master Thorvald Mikkelsen
s. l. Klarskovgaard 1950. Fine. s. l. Klarskovgaard 17 novembre 1950 21 x 34 cm 2 pages sur un feuillet Autograph letter signed with the initials of Louis-Ferdinand Céline addressed to his lawyer Master Thorvald Mikkelsen. Two pages written in blue ink on a large sheet of white paper; number ""568"" in Céline's hand in red pencil at the top left. Transversal folds inherent to mailing. This letter was very partially transcribed in Année Céline 2005. Early November 1950 Gaby Paul had come to visit Céline and Lucette at Klarskovgaard: ""Oh mille mercis à Mme Christensen pour son aimable repas qui réchauffé fit nos délices ! Et puis aussi gratitudes pour tout le soin qu'elle a pris de Mme Gen Paul !. Laquelle ne donne aucune nouvelle. Quelle vacherie encore . Comme c'est amusant ! Je crois qu'elle avait des projets ""journalistiques"" mais que mon attitude l'a désenchantée. """"Oh a thousand thanks to Madame Christensen for her kind meal which reheated was our delight! And also gratitude for all the care she took of Mme Gen Paul!. Who gives no news. What nastiness again. How amusing! I believe she had 'journalistic' projects but my attitude disenchanted her."" Céline also mentions the Swedish writer Ernst Bendz one of the few to defend Céline alongside Paraz: ""Une lettre amusante de Bendz ! Bendz appartient vraiment à l'aristocratie des esprits ! La preuve ! La façon qu'il ""m'estime""!!!""""An amusing letter from Bendz! Bendz truly belongs to the aristocracy of minds! The proof! The way he 'esteems me'!!!"" In 1947 Céline pursued by French justice for his collaborationist involvement was confined in Denmark. It was in May 1948 accompanied by Lucette and Bébert that he arrived at his lawyer Master Thorvald Mikkelsen's home at Klarskovgaard. The latter owned a large property by the Baltic Sea and invited the exile to stay there. On February 21 1950 as part of the épuration the writer was definitively sentenced in absentia by the civic chamber of the Paris Court of Justice for collaboration to one year of imprisonment which he had already served in Denmark. The Swedish Consul General in Paris Raoul Nordling intervened on his behalf with Gustav Rasmussen Danish Foreign Minister and managed to delay his extradition. On April 20 1951 Jean-Louis Tixier-Vignancour his lawyer since 1948 obtained Céline's amnesty under the title of ""severely disabled veteran of the Great War"" by presenting his file under the name Louis-Ferdinand Destouches without any magistrate making the connection. Céline would leave Denmark the following summer after three years spent at his lawyer's home. unknown

Céline sends Mikkelsen an article: ""Pour intéressé que vous soyez aux choses de l'esprit je crois avoir remarqué que les turlupinades des banques changes fricoteries diverses vous amusaient aussi.

Here therefore attached is a rather farcical article relating certain antics of gold and its swindling money-changers in Paris obviously!"" The writer attached to his letter another sheet whose numerous underlinings bear witness to the persecution he felt victim to: ""Maintenant qu'on remonte la Ligne Maginot qu'on recrée une Légion Anti Bolchéviques une armée franco-allemande il paraît qu'il est question de me poursuivre à nouveau d'après les Beaux Draps mais cette fois pour antigermanisme et sabotage de l'Europe Nouvelle et irrespect pour Hitler !

"Je viens de perdre à l'hospice d'Angers encore une dernière parente"" Signed autograph letter addressed to Master Thorvald Mikkelsen
s. l. Klarskovgaard 1950. Fine. s. l. Klarskovgaard 8 décembre 1950 21 x 34 cm 2 pages sur un feuillet Autograph letter signed partly unpublished by Louis-Ferdinand Céline addressed to his lawyer Maître Thorvald Mikkelsen. Two pages written in blue ink on a large sheet of white paper; numbered 575 in Célines hand in red pencil at the top left corner. Fold marks from mailing. This letter was only partially transcribed in Année Céline 2005 p. 64. A moving and bitter letter by Céline who had just lost his aunt Amélie the Aunt Hélène of Death on Credit and witnesses the slow disappearance of the world he once knew. The writer finds solace in the memoirs of Élisabeth de Gramont another witness to a bygone era. From his Danish exile Céline learns with sorrow of the death of his Aunt Amélie the last surviving member of the Destouches family: Je viens de perdre à l'hospice d'Angers encore une dernière parente. Although he had not spared his alter ego in Death on Creditthe scandalous Aunt Hélène meets a shameful end trailed by suitors lovers or clientshe recalls: À Saint-Pétersbourg elle est devenue grue. . Elle est venue nous voir au Passage deux fois de suite frusquée superbe comme une princesse et heureuse et tout. Elle a terminé très tragiquement sous les balles dun officier. The real Aunt Amélie had settled in Romania married to a diplomat Zenon Zawirski. Unfortunately reality caught up with fiction: she returned to Paris in utter destitution at the age of 80. Céline arranged for her transfer from the hospice of the Little Sisters of the Poor in Breteuil to the hospital in Angers where she died in December 1950 Que la pauvre femme meure gentiment. Assez de fins tragiques dans la famille ! he had written to Dr. Camus on 11 July 1949. His secretary Marie Canavaggia met her before her arrival in Angers: elle avait par moments des gestes et des expressions qui en éclairs me rappelaient son neveu 13 July 1949. With the last of his family gone Céline reflects on his own end: si ça continue si je rentre jamais en France je foncerai directement au cimetière. Devouring the books his lawyer sent to ease the burden of exile Céline describes his current readings: Le Temps des équipages by Élisabeth de Gramont est un des livres fameux parus vers 1920 ! Lun des « Guides des Snobs » les mieux réussis de lÉpoque. It is striking to imagine Céline delighting in this aristocrats social chronicle so alien to his world: Javais un ami Carré de Rennes étudiant en droit qui lavait appris par cur ! . il sen est établi marchand de tableaux. As a young medical student Céline had indeed crossed paths with Louis Carré later a successful Parisian art dealer who exhibited Paul Klee Juan Gris Le Corbusier and Picasso: il y a fait 10 fois fortune ! Preuve que tous les livres ne sont pas déprimants ! In 1947 pursued by French justice for his collaborationist stance Céline took refuge in Denmark. In May 1948 accompanied by Lucette and Bébert he arrived at the home of his lawyer Maître Thorvald Mikkelsen in Klarskovgaard. Mikkelsen owned a large estate on the Baltic Sea and welcomed the exiled writer to stay. On 21 February 1950 as part of the post-war purge Céline was definitively sentenced in absentia by the Civic Chamber of the Paris Court of Justice to one year in prison for collaboration a sentence already served in Denmark. Raoul Nordling the Swedish consul general in Paris intervened on his behalf with Gustav Rasmussen the Danish Foreign Minister successfully delaying his extradition. On 20 April 1951 Jean-Louis Tixier-Vignancour his lawyer since 1948 obtained Célines amnesty as a severely disabled veteran of the Great War submitting the case under the name Louis-Ferdinand Destouches without the magistrates making the connection. Céline left Denmark that summer after three years spent in his lawyers home. unknown
