Edition originale. "Que le lecteur veuille bien ne considérer les premières pages de ce livre que comme un fragment des mémoires que je publierai peut-être un jour, non que ma vie vaille la peine d'être racontée, mais parce qu'elle a côtoyé souvent celle d'artistes très illustres. - Car il ne s'agit ici que de souvenirs, écrits comme pour moi-même, souvenirs recueillis en plusieurs années de relations suivies avec Richard Wagner" (avant-propos de l'autrice, p. 9). Judith Gautier et son mari Catulle Mendès avaient rencontré Wagner dès 1869. Fille de Théophile Gautier, actrice majeure du monde culturel de son temps, écrivaine, journaliste, et grande amie de Victor Hugo, Judith Gautier (1845-1917) est première femme entrée à l’Académie Goncourt en 1910.

WAGNER (Richard)
Ueber die Aufführung des Bühnenfestspieles Der Ring des Nibelungen. Eine Mittheilung und Aufforderung an die Freunde seiner Kunst.
In-8, broché, couverture moderne de papier fort, 19 p. Erste Ausgabe (édition originale). Wagner appelle les amateurs à s'associer librement pour défendre son oeuvre mais aussi intéresser l'ensemble du peuple allemand et le gagner à sa cause. De fait, en cette même année, la première association wagnérienne fut fondée et dès 1872, Wagner déménagea de Triebschen à Bayreuth où il s'installa avec sa femme Cosima. Wagner rief die Liebhaber dazu auf, sich frei zusammenzuschließen, um sein Werk zu verteidigen, aber auch das gesamte deutsche Volk zu interessieren und für seine Sache zu gewinnen. Tatsächlich wurde im selben Jahr der erste Wagner-Verein gegründet, und bereits 1872 zog Wagner von Triebschen nach Bayreuth, wo er sich mit seiner Frau Cosima niederließ. (Oesterlein, 'Katalog Einer Richard Wagner-Bibliothek', n°2284). Des piqûres éparses. Bon exemplaire.
