Andrade, E N da C [signed By Robert F Bacher]
The Structure of the Atom
New York 1923: Harcourt Brace & Co. 1923. First American Edition . Blue Cloth. Very Good. 314 Pp. First Printing. This Is Andrade's First Book Originally Published In England In 1923 Intended As An Introduction To Atomic Structure For The "Serious Student". Andrade Was Quain Professor Of Physics At The University Of London 1928-1950 And A Highly Honored Historian Of The Physical Sciences. This Copy Signed By Robert F. Bacher And Dated In April 1925 While Bacher Was A Student. Bacher Later Followed Hans Bethe To Cornell In 1935 Where He Started Doing Experimental Work In Nuclear Physics With Bethe And Left Theoretical Work Behind. He Was Quickly Promoted To Full Professor And Director Of The Laboratory Of Nuclear Studies. Early On He Had Felt That The United States Needed To Start Doing War Work And When Lee Dubridge Head Of The Radiation Lab Working On Radar At Mit Summoned Him There In 1941 He Went. Then Late In 1942 Oppenheimer Who Had Been One Of Bacher's Instructors Earlier At Caltech Approached Bacher About A New Lab For Nuclear Weapons Work That Was Just Starting Up And The Following Spring Asked Him To Join The Manhattan Project. Bacher Declined Initially Telling Oppenheimer That What He Needed Was Engineers. Ultimately When Oppenheimer Made A Commitment To Hiring More Engineers And Made Him Head Of The Experimental Physics Division Bacher Signed On. From The Beginning Bacher Was Firmly Opposed To Making Los Alamos A Military Lab And Persuaded Oppenheimer Who Had Agreed To Take A Commission As Lieutenant Colonel And Had Already Ordered His Uniforms To Keep It Under Civilian Control At Least Until They Had Enough Fissionable Material For A Bomb. When The Project Was Reorganized In July 1944 To Speed Work On Implosion Bacher'S Experimental Physics Division Was Split And He Was Put In Charge Of The G For "Gadget" The Code Name For The Bomb Division. Bacher Personally Escorted The First Bomb To The Test Site In July Of 1945. In 1946 He Was Awarded The President'S Medal For Merit For His Work On The Manhattan Project. Bacher Returned To Cornell Hoping To Get Back To High-Energy Physics But The Bomb'S Aftermath Continued To Involve Him. He Felt Strongly That There Should Be Some Sort Of International Control Of Atomic Weapons And Worked Hard On Negotiations With The Soviet Union. He Admitted In His Oral History That This Was Perhaps Idealistic But Thought That Getting This Technology Out In The Open Might Have Avoided The Subsequent Cold War. When The Atomic Energy Commission Was Established Bacher Served As The Only Scientist Among Its Members; He Had Tried To Decline The Post But Took It On When He Learned That There Would Be No Scientist At All If He Didn'T Accept. While A Member Of The Aec He Pushed For The Development Of Nuclear Submarines And Breeder Reactors For Commercial Power. In The Meantime Lee Dubridge Now President Of Caltech Offered Him A Position As Chairman Of The Division Of Physics Mathematics And Astronomy Or As Just A Professor Whichever He Preferred. "The Decision I Came To Was A Fateful One And Probably Illustrates A Major Failing In My Makeup" Bacher Said In The Oral History. What He Saw As A Major Failing In His Makeup Was In Fact A Superb Talent For Envisioning The Future And Leading The Institute Into It. After Getting A Commitment That The Institute Would Support A Program In High-Energy Physics Both Theoretical And Experimental Bacher Arrived In 1949. One Of His First Hires In High-Energy Physics Was Robert Walker Whom He Had Known At Los Alamos And Cornell. Another Of Bacher'S Early Recruits Was Richard Feynman Who Was Reportedly Feeling "Unsettled" At Cornell; Bacher Persuaded Him To Sign On At Caltech With A Sabbatical Year In Brazil In Between. Feynman Then Settled In Pasadena In 1951 For The Rest Of His Career. Now With Feynman And Robert Christy Who Had Come In 1946 Bacher Felt He Had The Two Most Outstanding Theorists From Los Alamos. Then In 1955 He Also Hired Murray Gell-Mann. <br/> <br/> Harcourt Brace & Co. hardcover

Andre BRETON - (Albert CAMUS)
"Allons ce n'est pas encore cette fois que dans la révolte je parviendrai à introduire la ""mesure"" que nous prêche aimablement M. Camus."" Unpublished signed autograph letter addressed to the critic Charles Estienne
Paris 1953. Fine. Paris 8 janvier 1953 21 x 27 cm 1 pages et quelques lignes sur un feuillet Unpublished handwritten signed letter from André Breton addressed to critic Charles Estienne; one page and a few lines in black ink on a paper from the à l'étoile scellée gallery. Two transverse folds from having been sent a small corner missing in the upper right margin. Very beautiful letter giving an account of the death of one of André Breton's dearest friends and of his quarrel with Albert Camus. Breton tells his friend about the death of the Surrealist Czech artist Jindich Heisler: Your letter spoke of those days where it seemed that there was only just enough fire to live: on Monday there was far from enough fire when it reached me: one of my two or three best friends Heisler taken suddenly unwell on his way to mine on Saturday had to be hospitalised urgently and I had just received the pneumatic from Bichat telling me of his death. The event no less inconceivable than accomplished left me distraught for a long time: there was no-one more exquisite than he putting more warmth into everything he did the most constant of which was to lighten and embellish those whom he loved. The two poets were indeed very close: Heisler participated alongside Breton in the launch of Néon in 1948 and supported him during a period of depression accompanying him with other friends to the Île de Sein. The beginning of 1953 was overshadowed by the death of Jindich Heisler 4 January. Loyal among the faithful he lived entirely for Surrealism according to Breton who pays tribute to his activity as a leader: This is how he was between 1948 and 1950 the soul of Néon and until his last moments the greatest bearer of projects that as if by magic his talent gave him the means to achieve. Henri Béhar André Breton In this letter laden with pain Breton suddenly makes reference to L'Homme révolté by Albert Camus published two years earlier: Come on it is not yet the time in the rebellion that I will succeed in introducing the measure that M. Camus kindly preaches to us. The two writers met in New York at the end of March 1946 when Camus was invited to the United States for a conference tour as a representative of Combat. The two agree on the best way to preserve the testimony of certain men free from ideological distortions. They dream of a kind of pact by which people of their calibre would commit to not join any political party to fight against the death penalty to never claim any credit whatsoever. ibid. With other intellectuals they founded the Rassemblement démocratique révolutionnaire RDR in 1948; but the idyll ended a couple of years later in the autumn of 1951 when Camus published Lautréamont et la banalité an extract from his Homme révolté which was published later. Breton was extremely hurt and responded to him in an article entitled Sucre jaune in Arts: This article . testifies to the part of Camus for the first time for an indefensible moral and intellectual position. . He only wants to see a guilty adolescent in Lautréamont whom he - in his capacity as an adult - must discipline. He goes as far as to find him in the second part of his work: Poésies a deserved punishment. According to Camus Poésies would be but a mass of laborious banalities . It could still be worse if the destitution of these views did not intend to promote the most suspect thesis in the world which is that absolute revolt can generate only the taste for intellectual enslavement. This is a completely gratuitous ultra-defeatist statement which must incur even more contempt than its false demonstration. Thus two years later Breton still holds out against Camus' crime of lese-majesty towards that which Breton constructed as the father of surrealism but even more this allusion to Camus' pacifist philosophy bearing witness to the incompatibility between a thought of moderation and a poetry of revol unknown

"Je suis de nouveau en mauvais termes avec Max Ernst Masson devenu gaulliste est parti hier pour Paris."" Unpublished signed autograph letter addressed to Marcel Jean
New York 1945. Fine. New York 23 octobre 1945 17.10 x 25.40 cm 2 pages sur un feuillet et une enveloppe Unpublished autograph letter signed by André Breton addressed to Marcel Jean two pages written in blue ink on a sheet. ""Air mail"" envelope enclosed. Creases inherent to mailing. This letter is mentioned and very briefly quoted in Marcel Jean's autobiography Au galop dans le vent. Important and lengthy letter sent from New York when Breton in exile since 1943 as he was considered a ""dangerous anarchist"" by the Pétainist government was forced - like many intellectuals - to leave France in order to continue working. He shares with his friend the ""overwhelming despair"" ""l'accablement"" that the city brings him and one still senses his eagerness to return to his homeland. Painter draftsman and decorator Marcel Jean joined the Surrealist group in 1933 and became one of the movement's first chroniclers. One can sense all his emotion upon receiving this letter which he discusses at length in his autobiography: ""October 1945 I write to André Breton in New York. In response two densely written pages of fine calligraphy. My letter whose tone must have pleased him gave him ""real pleasure"" ""vraiment plaisir"". He finds me ""healthy safe and by no means lacking in that lucid smiling very human way of seeing"" ""sain sauf et nullement dénué de cette façon de voir lucide souriante très humaine"" that he has always known in me ""I just thought ""Je viens de penser"" he says of your firm handshake ""à ta rude poignée de main""."". I had mentioned to him the study on Lautréamont whose elements I am gathering he encourages me to give extracts of it for a Surrealist issue being prepared for the magazine Vrille ""this without prejudice to a drawing by you that Vrille should reproduce"" ""cela sans préjudice de dessin de toi que Vrille devrait reproduire"" and for the same magazine to submit ""a certain number of recent works to an in-depth analytical and critical commentary"" ""un certain nombre d'ouvrages récents à un commentaire analytique et critique approfondi"". This is followed by advice and encouragement regarding a work of literary criticism he would like to see me undertake. Then some news from America and our friends: Max Ernst Tanguy Péret who is bored in Mexico Matta who ""paints large panels in a new genre sadistic figurative much remarked upon."" ""peint de grands panneaux dans un nouveau genre figuratif sadique très remarqués."". And the vigorous signature. Breton's letters their contrast between the text with extremely regular handwriting and the flourish hurried and in both scripts something controlled have always given me the impression that in writing to me he was doing me the favor of an autograph. His message outlined for me a program as chronicler in view of his return to Paris in the spring but I had in mind something other than commenting on the commentaries of critics whose interest he pointed out to me - Maurice Blanchot or Léon-Pierre Quint. My projects concerned the study of Lautréamont and then - or at the same time: to paint and to draw."" unknown

Andre BRETON - (Sarane ALEXANDRIAN)
Lettre autographe signée inédite adressée à Sarane Alexandrian
Paris 1947. Fine. Paris mercredi 12 mars 1947 20.80 x 27 cm 1 page sur un feuillet enveloppe jointe Unpublished autograph letter signed addressed to Sarane Alexandrian one page written in blue ink on a sheet with the letterhead of the 1947 International Exhibition of Surrealism. Envelope enclosed. This letter is a response to a letter sent the day before by Sarane Alexandrian partially accessible on the Breton Archives website. Born in Baghdad and engaged in the Resistance in the Limousin it was during this period that Sarane Alexandrian discovered Dadaism. At twenty years old he became André Breton's right-hand man and was entrusted by the latter with directing the secretariat of Cause in order to respond to applications from numerous young artists from around the world wishing to join the Surrealist movement. In October 1948 he broke with the pope of Surrealism while maintaining his esteem and admiration for him: ""Near him one learned the savoir-vivre of poets whose essential article is a savoir-aimer. We admired him for the dignity of his behavior as a writer thinking neither of prizes nor decorations nor academies"" Alexandrian André Breton par lui-même 1971. The letter we offer marks the beginnings of this ephemeral but important relationship between the two writers. André Breton twenty years Sarane Alexandrian's senior seems to place great hopes in this young theorist who takes interest in his writings: ""Max-Pol Fouchet has not yet had me read 'Poetry and Objectivity' but your letter tells me enough for me to believe in a profound accord between us an accord based less on the reception you give to what my message has been able to be until now than on the very nature of your personal project which largely coincides with mine."" As for ""Poetry and Objectivity"" he adds: ""I would see the greatest interest in publishing in the catalog of the Surrealist exhibition some pages by you in which the principal ideas expressed in your letter would need to be barely transposed and especially those which touch upon the creation of an 'erotic mystique'."" This publication taking the form of a manifesto would indeed see the light of day and appear in the review Fontaine produced for the occasion of the 1947 International Exhibition of Surrealism at the Galerie Maeght. The text would earn great success for young Alexandrian who would henceforth be considered by his peers as the number two theorist of Surrealism. A very fine letter marking the beginning of the important but ephemeral relationship between the two master thinkers of Surrealism. unknown

Lettre autographe signée inédite adressée à Michel Fardoulis-Lagrange : ""Dites-moi : IIIe Convoi ne nous a tout de même pas habitués à cette allure ! ""
Paris 1947. Fine. Paris 16 février 1947 20.80 x 27 cm une page sur un feuillet enveloppe jointe Unpublished autograph letter signed by André Breton addressed to Michel Fardoulis-Lagrange written in black ink on a sheet with letterhead of the International Surrealist Exhibition 1947. Envelope included. Transverse folds inherent to mailing. Interesting letter evoking the review Troisième Convoi founded by Jean Maquet and Michel Fardoulis-Lagrange written shortly before the second surrealist exhibition at the Maeght gallery: ""Dites-moi : IIIe Convoi ne nous a tout de même pas habitués à cette allure ! "" ""Tell me: IIIe Convoi has not exactly accustomed us to this pace!"". The review whose title was inspired by Vases communicants ""Nous voyageurs du second convoi."" ""We travelers of the second convoy"" had five issues between 1945 and 1951. We have found no trace of Breton's collaboration with this review but the letter we offer demonstrates that it may have been discussed: ""Et vous savez que je reste en assez mauvaise condition avec cette séquelle de sinusite. . Il me faudrait aussi être un peu plus éclairé peut-être sur l'axe de votre quatrième numéro pour ne pas partir à côté ou faire malgré moi trop divergent. Ne pensez-vous pas "" ""And you know that I remain in rather poor condition with this sequel of sinusitis. . I would also need to be perhaps a little more enlightened about the direction of your fourth issue so as not to go off track or despite myself be too divergent. Don't you think"" unknown

Manuscrit autographe signé de deux chroniques intitulées ""Une fameuse gorgée de poison"" et ""ça !""
1953. Fine. mai 1953 21 x 27 cm une feuille et un petit papillon André Breton autograph manuscript signed ""A.B."" of two chronicles entitled ""Une fameuse gorgée de poison"" and ""ça !"" written for issue no. 7 of May 1953 of the review Médium. One long page written in black ink in careful handwriting on a white sheet some corrections and additions sometimes in blue ink. Included is a small slip in Breton's hand concerning an article by René Alleau containing a small printed text annotated by him in red and blue ballpoint pens and bearing an explanatory note at the top. Two transverse folds of no significance. This is the final version of these two texts; an intermediate version of these articles more crossed out than ours can be seen on the Breton Archives website. ""Une fameuse gorgée de poison"" ""A famous gulp of poison"" is a critical text on two films: Le Rideau cramoisi by Alexandre Astruc drawn from a story by Barbey d'Aurevilly and La Canduela by Maurice Clavel drawn from a novel by Stendhal: ""As they stand these two films constitute an unforgettable ensemble. Love is kindled there in the wind it loves that of perdition."" ""ça !"" ""that!"" whose title we can clearly see was previously chosen by Breton ""Le gredin du jour"" ""The scoundrel of the day"" is a diatribe against ""The frightful fool who bears for so few days more the name of Francis Jourdain"" and who ""recently allowed himself some sordid senile drivel which the press made much of. The old idiot had got it into the rotten parsnip that serves him as head and excretory organ to soil Huysmans if you please!"" unknown

« Mais il faut continuer à vivre et pour cela se réserver une part de solitude qu'avec angoisse aussi je vois diminuer chaque jour. » Unpublished signed autograph letter addressed to Gaston Puel
Antibes 1948. Fine. Antibes 9 mars 1948 21.80 x 27 cm 2 pages sur un feuillet Unpublished autograph letter signed by André Breton addressed to Gaston Puel; two pages on one leaf written in blue ink with fine and careful handwriting numerous underlinings. Foxing and marginal adhesive traces. A very fine letter imbued with benevolence in which the Pope of Surrealism shares his numerous and time-consuming occupations with his young correspondent while reassuring him about his talent and future. Gaston Puel began corresponding with André Breton at the Liberation. They had never met at the time of this letter written four years later: « Je suis heureux que vous ayez pensé à m'adresser votre photographie. C'est un grand pas de fait pour rompre la distance et il ne se peut guère que nous ne nous rencontrions bientôt. » ""I am happy that you thought to send me your photograph. It is a great step towards breaking the distance and it can hardly be that we will not meet soon."" The two writers seem very close as evidenced by Breton's paternal and reassuring tone: « Ne parlez pas comme à regret de ceux qui avancent : vous en êtes et j'en sais bien peu qui soient si loin que vous déjà. Ce que vous m'écrivez - pas seulement cette fois - est toujours pour moi de haute importance. » ""Do not speak regretfully of those who advance: you are among them and I know very few who are already as far along as you. What you write to me - not just this time - is always of great importance to me."" A tireless worker Breton here shares his frustration and weariness with Puel: « Mais il faut continuer à vivre et pour cela se réserver une part de solitude qu'avec angoisse aussi je vois diminuer chaque jour. » ""But one must continue to live and for that reserve a share of solitude which I also see diminishing each day with anguish."" Gaston Puel then 24 years old had been participating for some time in the activities of the surrealist group around Joë Bousquet André Breton and René Char. His mentor here predicts a clear future for him: « Mon cher Ami je souhaite très vivement que vous preniez une part active à la rédaction de « Néon ». Il suffirait d'une très légère transposition de ton pour que les pages que vous m'adressez puissent y trouver place et en constituer un des éléments primordiaux. Il en va naturellement de même pour « Supérieur inconnu » si cette revue peut voir le jour. » ""My dear Friend I very much wish that you would take an active part in the editing of 'Néon'. It would only require a very slight transposition of tone for the pages you send me to find their place there and form one of its primordial elements. The same goes naturally for 'Supérieur inconnu' if this magazine can see the light of day."" This latter review meant to reconcile and unite the conservatives and innovators of surrealism would only come to light forty-eight years later under the impetus of Sarane Alexandrian. Gaston Puel would indeed join the editorial team of Néon but would eventually turn away from the surrealists - while maintaining his friendship with Breton - in 1950. unknown

Eigenh. Brief mit U. Pillnitz, 5. VII. 1856.
1 S. Gr.-4to. Mit eh. Adresse verso (Faltbrief). An "Oberinspector" Seifert: "Zu meinem Schrecken erfahre ich, dass Ihre Freundlichkeit gegen mich Sie möglicherweise Unannehmlichkeiten aussetzten könne. Ich beeile mich deshalb Ihnen die Postkarte, von der ich noch keinen Gebrauch gemacht habe, zurückzusenden. Ich habe wegen meines Heimathscheines, dessen Ausfertigung natürlich nicht den mindesten Anstand in meiner Vaterstadt finde, nach Braunschweig geschrieben, bis heute jedoch von einem meiner Verwandten, den ich mit Besorgung dieser Angelegenheit beauftragte, keine Antwort erhalte. Vielleicht ist derselbe eben nicht anwesend. Ich habe einen zweiten Brief abgeschickt, auf den ich im Laufe der nächsten Wochen Antwort erwarte. Am Donnerstag komme ich zur Stadt, um mit dem Grafen d'Escayrat, französ-Generalconsul in Cairo, der von Wien eintrifft, eine Conferenz wegen der Expedition zur Entdeckung der Nilquellen zu haben. Ich werde nicht ermangeln bei Ihnen vorzusprechen und Ihnen persönlich zu sagen, wie leid es mir tut dass Sie meinetwegen in Verlegenheit gerathen sind [...]". - Andree publizierte im selben Jahr eine ethnologische und geographische Studie mit dem Titel "Buenos Ayres und die argentinische Republik" (Leipzig, 1856). - Gefaltet. Am Briefkopf mit Notiz: "Postkarte für Dr. André wiederum ausgehändigt d. 14/7. 56". Spuren alter Faltung. Siegelspuren.
