‎Robert de MONTESQUIOU‎

‎Lettre autographe signée adressée à un critique littéraire à qui il reproche de ne pas vouloir évoquer son dernier livre par trop réactionnaire et aristocratique : "" L'aristocratie ce n'est tout de même pas madame Moore madame Porgès et Mam ""zell"" Gutman ; pas plus que la littérature n'est Mam ""zell"" Vacaresco et Monsieur de Pomairols. A un borgne bien intentionné qui me disait : ""vous attaquez le monde ! "". j'ai répondu : ""Pardon ! je range le salon de ma grand-mère""‎

‎s. l.: S. n. 1911. Fine. S. n. s. l. 1911 27 x 21 cm 6 feuillets recto Signed autograph letter from the dandy count 68 lines written in black ink on six recto leaves probably addressed to his friend and bibliographer the critic Henri Lapauze to whom he almost orders him to review his latest work in one of his upcoming chronicles. The proud Robert de Montesquiou also evokes with complete immodesty his intellectual height and depth qualities cruelly lacking in some of his contemporaries: ""Cher ami avec plaisir je consens à faire partie de votre comité avec d'autant plus de plaisir que sans le vouloir ou peut-être intentionnellement je préfère le croire vous donnez raison à mon dernier livre. Voir page 143 : ""nulle ne serait mieux qualifiée pour ce titre de Présidente. On n'en saurait trouver de plus affable"". Oui cher ami j'en profite pour vous le redire sans plaisanterie - aussi bien que sans amertume vous vous êtes trop de fois montré efficacement sympathique pour que j'en perde si vite ni même jamais le souvenir. - vraiment je ne suis pas du tout de votre avis sur l'impossibilité de parler de mon dernier livre dans votre chronique. Je suis même de l'avis entièrement contraire. D'abord je ne voudrais pas si j'étais critique littéraire qu'il fût dit un jour qu'un tel livre a paru vous savez que je ne suis pas modeste sans que j'en ai fait mention d'une manière ou de l'autre. En outre c'est trop lui donner raison que d'en agir ainsi. Vous voyez que si je suis modeste je ne suis pas moins juste. Oui à votre place j'aurais fait la part de l'auteur et celle du lecteur même récalcitrant comme l'ont fait Robin dans le Herald et Glaser dans le Figaro comme l'ont fait et le feront d'autres. - Quant au bel article de Lucien Daudet dans le Gil Blas je pense que vous l'avez lu. Des personnes d'esprit et d'art comme vous deux ne peuvent se méprendre sur le côté réactionnaire et aristocratique d'un tel écrit dans la bonne acception de ces deux qualificatifs. L'aristocratie ce n'est tout de même pas madame Moore madame Porgès et Mam ""zell"" Gutman ; pas plus que la littérature n'est Mam ""zell"" Vacaresco et Monsieur de Pomairols. A un borgne bien intentionné qui me disait : ""vous attaquez le monde ! "". j'ai répondu : ""Pardon ! je range le salon de ma grand-mère"" Aussi quand je lis dans quelque de vos jolis commentaires trop incertains à certains à propos de je ne sais quel plus ou moins vague bouquin que ""l'auteur"" manie supérieurement l'ironie je m'écris furieusement : ""Eh bien ! et moi ! ."" Alors pour me dédommager et un peu me venger je relis votre carte du 10 octobre : ""Envoyez moi tout de suite cher ami votre insupportable héroïne"". Henry et moi nous voulons la connaître l'aimer la faire aimer. A quoi pensez vous de nous mettre ""l'eau à la bouche pour retirer ensuite ce fruit. que nous espérons défendu."" De ce moment-là je me sens mieux. Et pour vous le prouvre cher ami et que je suis sincère je vous annonce mon intention de publier à l'occasion de votre exposition un nouvel essai sur Ingres lequel vous sera dédié si tel est votre bon plaisir comme il est le mien. Si vous connaissez un coin de revue qui s'accommode de ça faites-le moi savoir et recevez mes amitiés bien dessinées. Robert de Montesquiou Janv. 911."" ""Dear friend with pleasure I consent to be part of your committee with all the more pleasure since without wanting to or perhaps intentionally I prefer to believe so you vindicate my latest book. See page 143: 'none would be better qualified for this title of President. One could not find a more affable one.' Yes dear friend I take this opportunity to tell you again without jest - as well as without bitterness you have shown yourself efficiently sympathetic too many times for me to lose the memory of it so quickly or even ever. - truly I am not at all of your opinion on the impossibility of speaking about my latest book in your chronicle. I am even S. n. unknown‎

‎Paris: S. n. 1900. Fine. S. n. Paris s. d. circa 1910 23 x 18 cm un feuillet Autograph letter signed by the dandy count 27 lines written in violet ink addressed to his friend and bibliographer the critic Henri Lapauze: ""14 avenue Bosquet Cher monsieur et ami j'ai le plaisir de vous envoyer mon livre que je l'espère vous aimerez assez pour lui concéder la gracieuse faveur que je vous demande. Quelques lignes un alinéa en première page rappelant à vos lecteurs son apparition avec un bout de commentaire que vous tracerez je le sais obligeamment et savamment seront pour dédommager et peut-être récompenser le poète qui s'entête à chanter en ces époques troublée. Un compte-rendu de M. Perret m'a été promis mais il viendra en son temps que la politique peut retarder ; et votre bienveillant et incisif rappel agirait à cette heure fort élégamment et éloquemment sur les voyageurs au débotté et sur les parisiens en partance. Merci avant pendant après de votre sincère affectionné Robert de Montesquiou. 22 juin."" ""14 avenue Bosquet Dear sir and friend I have the pleasure of sending you my book which I hope you will like enough to grant it the gracious favor I ask of you. A few lines a paragraph on the first page reminding your readers of its appearance with a bit of commentary that you will write I know obligingly and learnedly will compensate and perhaps reward the poet who persists in singing in these troubled times. A review by M. Perret has been promised to me but it will come in its time which politics may delay; and your benevolent and incisive reminder would act at this hour most elegantly and eloquently on travelers upon arrival and on Parisians departing. Thank you before during after from your sincere affectionate Robert de Montesquiou. June 22."" Small pinhole marks that held the two sheets together. S. n. unknown‎

‎".vous savez bien qu'il n'y a pas dans mon cœur la moindre indifférence. Thadée a du vous dire combien nous avions partagé votre douleur."" • Autograph letter signed by Octave Mirbeau addressed to Alfred Natanson‎

‎Vichy 1906. Fine. Vichy 10 août 1906 11.60 x 18 cm une feuille Moving autograph letter signed by Octave Mirbeau addressed to the playwright and founder of the Revue Blanche Alfred Natanson when he had just lost his father. 18 lines in black ink on a folded sheet envelope included. ""Mon cher Fred Je ne vous ai pas écrit ; mais vous savez bien qu'il n'y a pas dans mon cœur la moindre indifférence. Thadée a dû vous dire combien nous avions partagé votre douleur. Thadée a dû vous dire souvent quelle amitié profonde j'ai pour vous. Peut-être ne vous l'ai-je pas exprimée telle que je la sens mais je la sens fortement et je voudrais bien que vous la sentiez aussi un peu. C'est un gros chagrin que de ne plus être aimé de ceux qu'on aime véritablement. Vous allez partir ; et vous faîtes bien de quitter cette maison où durant plus de six mois vous avez assisté à l'horrible agonie de votre pauvre père. Tâchez de travailler pour notre joie à tous. et revenez avec une belle œuvre."" ""My dear Fred I have not written to you; but you know well that there is not the slightest indifference in my heart. Thadée must have told you how much we shared your grief. Thadée must have told you often what deep friendship I have for you. Perhaps I have not expressed it to you as I feel it but I feel it strongly and I would very much like you to feel it too a little. It is a great sorrow to no longer be loved by those one truly loves. You are going to leave; and you do well to quit this house where for more than six months you witnessed the horrible agony of your poor father. Try to work for all our joy. and return with a beautiful work."". Mirbeau was particularly close to the group of the Revue Blanche since its launch in Paris in 1891. But it was since the Dreyfus affair that his intimate and lasting friendship with the Natanson brothers Thadée Alexandre and Alfred was strengthened. After aesthetic disagreements about Art Nouveau and the Nabis Mirbeau finally reunited with Thadée around 1900 in a now common inclination for the young Nabis painters of the Revue Blanche Bonnard Vallotton and Vuillard. The Revue Blanche played an essential role in France as confirmed by historian Paul-Henri Bourrelier: ""Most of the most prominent writers painters musicians politicians and intellectuals of the late 19th and early 20th centuries collaborated with it or were associated with it. Created financed and directed by the three Natanson brothers young Polish Jews with the enthusiastic complicity of their classmates from the Condorcet lycée La Revue blanche quickly became a place of debate on all subjects that stirred France. It waged political battles under the impulse of anarchists like Fénéon Mirbeau; socialists such as Blum G. Moch Péguy; Dreyfusards and founders of the League of Human Rights like Reinach and Pressensé."" unknown‎
