(JAURES Jean) LENEPVEU Victor
[AFFAIRE DREYFUS] Musée des horreurs - Affiche originale lithographiée en couleurs - n°14 "L'Eléphant du Jourdain"
- Imprimerie Lenepveu, Paris s.d. [janvier 1900], 49,8x65,2cm, une affiche. - Musée des horreurs - Original colour lithographed poster - n° 14 "L'éléphant du Jourdain" Imprimerie Lenepveu | Paris [January 1900] | 49,8 x 65,2 cm | one poster Original colour lithographed poster depicting Jean Jaurès as an elephant sitting on a chair and holding a bottle of "water from the Jordan". Until then portrayed as a dog - caricaturists mocking his aggressiveness - Jean Jaurès is here, for the first time, represented as an elephant. It is a question here of highlighting his potbelly and his pachyderm silhouette, but we can, nevertheless, highlight the great dignity of this massive personality with a high gaze. The water from the Jordan is held on one of his hoofs and alludes to the rumour that he had his son baptised in the scared river, thus acting against his anticlerical policy. Despite the caricaturist's desire to ridicule Jean Jaurès, the choice of the elephant, a symbol of strength, prosperity and wisdom, is ultimately positive. Transverse folds and tiny, minor, marginal tears. Circulated between October 1899 and December 1900 in a France set ablaze by the Dreyfus Affair, these immense colour portraits are the work of Victor Lenepveu, who announced the publication of 150 and then 200 drawings, before finally producing only around fifty. Despite the 1881 law on the freedom of press allowing the dissemination of a politically subversive image, the publication of this nightmarish pantheon was interrupted by order of the Ministry of the Interior. The fragility of the paper and the imposing size of these very violent posters, as well as their almost immediate seizure by the police, contributed to the disappearance of these caricatures which strongly left a mark on public opinion. These horreurs were widely promoted by anti-Semitic newspapers that announced a fantasised print of 300,000 copies, thus insinuating the success of anti-Semitic ideas in the population. On 1st October 1899, L'Intransigeant announced the publication of the Musée des horreurs in its columns: "Un dessinateur de beaucoup d'esprit, au coup de crayon d'un comique intense, M. V. Lenepveu, a eu l'heureuse idée d'inaugurer une série de portraits des vendus les plus célèbres de la tourbe dreyfusarde. Le titre de cette série «?Musée des Horreurs?» est suffisamment suggestif et indique bien ce qu'il promet. [...] C'est la maison Hayard qui mettra en vente, à partir d'aujourd'hui, le numéro 1 de cette désopilante série." "An artist of great spirit, with an intense comical pencil stroke, M. V. Lenepveu, had the happy idea of inaugurating a series of portraits of the most famous sellouts of the Dreyfusard rabble. The title of this series "?Musée des Horreurs" is sufficiently suggestive and is a good indicator of what it promises. [...] It is Maison Hayard that will put up for sale, from today, issue number 1 of this hilarious series." First a peddler then a bookseller-publisher, Napoléon Hayard (known as Léon Hayard) specialised in the marketing of anti-Dreyfusard and anti-Semitic ephemera and advertisements. Today, however, copies in good condition of these pamphlet caricatures, which contributed to the social and political divide of France, are very rare. Published in the booming written press - at the same time as Émile Zola's famous "J'accuse?!" - these propaganda materials had a significant impact on the younger generations and preceded the ideological violence of the 20th century. [FRENCH VERSION FOLLOWS] Affiche originale lithographiée en couleurs représentant Jean Jaurès sous les traits d'un éléphant assis sur un fauteuil et tenant une bouteille d'«?eau du Jourdain?». Pliures transversales et infimes déchirures marginales sans manque.

(Jean Francoise De Bastide)
Storia generale e ragionata della Repubblica di Genova dalla sua origine fino a noi Tomo I (-III)
3 volumi in 8 (cm 15 x 21,5), pp. XVI + 408; 400; 350. Legatura ottocentesca in mezza tela con tassello in pelle al dorso con titolo. Opera pubblicata anonima ed uscita in contemporanea in francese con il titolo di "Histoire Generale et raisonnee de la Republique de Genes depuis son origine jusqu'a nos jours" e, in questa traduzione italiana, entrambe pubblicate dall'editore Franchelli fra 1794 e 1795. Manno la attribuisce a Gianfrancesco de Bastide morto a Milano il 4 luglio 1798. Jean Francoise De Bastide (1724-1798), fu historien, giornalista e poligrafo. La traduzione italiana dell'opera e' attribuita a Nicolo' Delle Piane da Giovanni Assereto ("Il mal della pietra. L'insurrezione genovese del 1746...", Genova, 1998, p. 4) che sottolinea come, nel terzo tomo dell'opera, Bastide riferisca del noto episodio legato alla guerra di successione austriaca a Genova nel quartiere Portoria. L'insurrezione sarebbe partita dal lancio di una pietra contro un Austriaco da parte di un giovane del luogo al quale gli Austriaci avevano chiesto di trasportare un mortaio da bombe. Assereto sottolinea come nella versione francese dell'opera di Bastide il fatto sia riportato in maniera piuttosto rapida e senza alcuna enfasi. Tuttavia, nella versione italiana, il traduttore - identificato appunto in Delle Piane - aggiunge una nota in cui fa riferimento alle memorabili parole dette dal ragazzo durante il lancio della pietra, ovvero "che la rompa?", pronunziato interrogativamente, che diede poi la stura alla furia di sassate contro il nemico che ne consegui'. Manno, p. 82.

(JURIEU, P.)
Les soupirs de la France esclave, qui aspire après la liberté.
Amsterdam, septembre 1, 1689 - octobre 1, 1690 (Paris, EDHIS, 1976). 228 pp. 4to. Modern leather. Well executed reprint of this rare and important work. Edition limited to 150 numbered copies and 30 copies not destined for the trade. This reprint is since long out-of-print. Above anything else, the Soupirs de la France Esclave ..... is a vehement protest against the absolutism of Louis XIV and strongly pleads for the rights of the people: 'les peuples ont établi les Rois pour conserver les personnes, la vie, la liberté et les biens des particuliers'; but the French government has become so tyrannical that it now sees everything as its rightful property; properly speaking there is no State or government but only the conveniences of the King. It should be noted that the work is not an apology of egalitarianism: it blames Louis XIV for having abolished the privileges of the different classes by which it has also erased all distinctions between the classes.The first three memoirs describe the oppression and the tyranny under which the people suffer and the general misery. The next two memoirs reveals by which means the court has established it absolut power and its abuses, in the memoirs 6-8 the author maintains that the crown is elective and the Salic Law of no value, that power rests with the Estates general ('les dépositaires du pouvoir') and superior to the King and that the 'Parlement' has been created to represent these Estats general. The memoirs 9 and 10 deal with the 'Grand Conseil', the 'maires du palais', 'des pairs, des ducs, comtes, etc.' who once were independant but are today no more than slaves. The memoirs 11-15 deal with the earlier periods of France when there was no standing army and oppressing taxes and how the monarchy can be brought back to its former state.'Cette publication fut naturellement l'objet d'une surveillance spéciale de la police de Louis XIV. On détruisit avec le plus grand soin tous les exemplaires sur lesquels on put mettre la main; et elle devint si rare, qu'en 1772 le chancelier Maupeou en acheta un exemplaire dans une vente au prix de cinq cents livres sur l'enchère du Duc d'Orléans' (Brunet).The work is also often attributed to Michel Le Vassor and it has also been supposed that Jurieu is the author of the last 2 memoirs only.
