D'un roman à l'autre. Manuscrit autographe et tapuscrit complets.
s. l. Paris: S. n. Journal des débats 1944. Fine. S. n. Journal des débats s. l. Paris s. d. 1944 13.50 x 21.50 cm 2 1/2 pages in-8 Autograph manuscript by the author of 2 and a half octavo pages published in the January 20 1944 issue of Journal des Débats. Complete manuscript in very dense handwriting with numerous deletions corrections and additions. Literary chronicle on the literary current events of the moment. The complete typescript is included. ""The subject is not limited to the plot: it depends equally on incidents of language details of composition and even more on those images that reveal the meaning of creation; the subject of a novel is above all the world it brings to birth."" This principle of the novelistic art could just as well apply to the chronicle it initiates. The subject of ""D'un roman à l'autre"" is not so much the literary current events it surveys as the Blanchotian thought it brings to birth. Between April 1941 and August 1944 Maurice Blanchot published in the ""Chronicle of intellectual life"" of Journal des Débats 173 articles on recently published books. In half a newspaper page approximately seven octavo pages the young author of ""Thomas l'obscur"" takes his first steps in the field of literary criticism and thus inaugurates a theoretical work that he will later develop in his numerous essays from ""La Part du feu"" to ""L'Entretien infini"" and ""L'Écriture du désastre"". From the first articles Blanchot demonstrates an analytical acuity far exceeding the literary current events that motivate their writing. Oscillating between classics and moderns first-rate writers and minor novelists he establishes in his chronicles the foundations of critical thinking that will mark the second half of the 20th century. Transformed by writing and by war Blanchot breaks through thinking exercised ""in the name of the other"" with the violent Maurrassian certainties of his youth. Not without paradox he then transforms literary criticism into a philosophical act of intellectual resistance to barbarity at the very heart of an ""openly Pétainist"" journal: ""To burn a book to write one are the two acts between which culture inscribes its contrary oscillations"" Le Livre In Journal des Débats January 20 1943. In 2007 the Cahiers de la NRF brought together under the direction of Christophe Bident all the literary chronicles not yet published in volumes with this pertinent analysis of Blanchot's critical work: ""novels poems essays give rise to singular reflection ever more confident in its own rhetoric delivered more to the echo of the impossible or to the sirens of disappearance. . Not without contradictions or sidesteps and in the feverish certainty of a work beginning . these articles reveal the genealogy of a critic who transformed the occasion of the chronicle into the necessity of thought."" C. Bident. Autograph manuscripts by Maurice Blanchot are extremely rare. S. n.[ Journal des débats] unknown

Maurice BLANCHOT
De la louange à la souveraineté. Manuscrit autographe et tapuscrit complets
s. l. Paris: S. n. Journal des débats 1943. Fine. S. n. Journal des débats s. l. Paris s. d. 1943 13.50 x 21 cm 4 1/2 pages in-8 Autograph manuscript by the author 4 and a half octavo pages published in the June 2 1943 issue of the Journal des Débats. Complete manuscript in very dense handwriting with numerous deletions corrections and additions. Literary chronicle published on the occasion of the publication of Servius et la fortune by Georges Dumézil. The complete typescript is included. By devoting his study to Dumézil's work on Servius Blanchot established a crucial milestone in the evolution of his own thought the passage from political conviction to literary engagement. This reflection on sovereignty indeed led the former Maurrassian to reorient his value system subjecting the prince's power to the people's benevolence: ""La louange des hommes est une divinité sous le patronage de laquelle se place le souverain choisi par la voix publique"" ""The praise of men is a divinity under whose patronage the sovereign chosen by public voice places himself"". Starting from this legitimation of the sovereign by the poet's word and his alienation by the ""puissance du blâme"" ""power of blame"" Blanchot evolved toward a magical power of speech first for the sovereign's use: ""son pouvoir royal . n'est réel que par la maîtrise qu'il a sur les mots"" ""his royal power . is real only through his mastery over words""; then ""dépassant toute forme d'échange. La poésie est par excellence ce qui est donné ce qui manifeste le don des dieux en assurant le crédit des hommes."" ""surpassing all forms of exchange. Poetry is par excellence what is given what manifests the gift of the gods while ensuring the credit of men."" Maurice Blanchot's position was now perfectly established: he did not sacrifice Politics for Letters he affirmed the predominance of the literary over the political and henceforth devoted his entire life ""to literature and to the silence that belongs to it"". Between April 1941 and August 1944 Maurice Blanchot published 173 articles on recently published books in the ""Chronicle of intellectual life"" of the Journal des Débats. In half a newspaper page approximately seven octavo pages the young author of ""Thomas l'obscur"" took his first steps in the field of literary criticism and thus inaugurated a theoretical work that he would later develop in his numerous essays from ""La Part du feu"" to ""L'Entretien infini"" and ""L'Écriture du désastre"". From the first articles Blanchot demonstrated an analytical acuity far exceeding the literary current events that motivated their writing. Oscillating between classics and moderns first-rate writers and minor novelists he established in his chronicles the foundations of critical thinking that would mark the second half of the 20th century. Transformed by writing and by war Blanchot broke through a thought exercised ""in the name of the other"" with the violent Maurrassian certainties of his youth. Not without paradox he then transformed literary criticism into a philosophical act of intellectual resistance to barbarism at the very heart of an ""openly Maréchaliste"" newspaper: ""Burning a book writing one are the two acts between which culture inscribes its contrary oscillations"" Le Livre In Journal des Débats January 20 1943. In 2007 the Cahiers de la NRF brought together under the direction of Christophe Bident all the literary chronicles not yet published in volumes with this pertinent analysis of Blanchot's critical work: ""novels poems essays give rise to a singular reflection ever more confident in its own rhetoric delivered more to the echo of the impossible or to the sirens of disappearance. .

Maurice BLANCHOT - (Friedrich NIETZSCHE)
Du côté de Nietzsche - Manuscrit autographe complet On Nietzsches Side Complete Autograph Manuscript
1946. Fine. 1946 21.70 x 11.50 cm 7 feuillets foliotés Autograph manuscript by the author 14 pages in octavo published in issue no. 12 December 1945January 1946 of L'Arche. A complete recto-verso manuscript in a densely written hand with numerous deletions corrections and additions. Essay published on the occasion of the release of Father du Lubacs Le Drame de lhumanisme athée. After the war the place of Friedrich Nietzschealongside the Marquis de Sade and Søren Kierkegaardin Maurice Blanchots thought reflects the decisive influence of Georges Bataille and the philosophers he held in highest regard. From this point on Blanchot devoted many texts to these figures and Du côté de Nietzsche stands as a key testimony of that engagement. The very title of his forthcoming collection La Part du feu to be published in 1949 including this article in a slightly revised form is itself a Bataillean reference. For Blanchot Nietzsches power through his use of language and style lies less in his most explicit and oft-commented theses than in the crucible of a more fluid and sometimes self-contradictory discourse: « L'influence de Nietzsche ne se réduit pas aux formes extérieures qu'elle a prises ; c'est probablement au contraire ce qui de Nietzsche a échappé à toute transmission manifeste cette part de lui étrangère aux influences directes qui a exercé l'influence la plus profonde. » This idea would remain central to Blanchots reading of the German philosopher. Nietzsches inconsistency and ambiguity are embodied in the theme of the death of God central to his work: « En aucune façon le thème de la Mort de Dieu ne peut être l'expression d'un savoir définitif ou l'esquisse d'une proposition stable » Blanchot observes. And he famously adds: « Se contredire est le mouvement essentiel d'une telle pensée. » In LEntretien infini 1969 Blanchot would once again revisit the Nietzschean question of the death of God where it meets that of the unity of man. A remarkable text by Maurice Blanchot on Friedrich Nietzsche illustrating the profound influence of Georges Bataille on his thought. unknown

Faux pas
Paris: Gallimard 1943. Fine. Gallimard Paris 1943 14 x 21 cm relié First edition a Service de Presse advance copy. Half red morocco binding spine with five raised bands date gilt at foot marbled paper boards marbled endpapers and pastedowns original wrappers preserved a very pale stain on the first cover top edge gilt elegant binding signed by P. Goy & C. Vilaine. Precious and moving autograph inscription signed by Maurice Blanchot to his mother and sister: ""Pour sa chère maman et sa vieille Marg avec l'amitié sans Faux Pas de Maurice."" ""For his dear mama and his old Marg with friendship without False Steps from Maurice."" Marguerite Blanchot renowned organist at Chalon cathedral remained all her life in the family home with her mother and aunt. ""She would gradually become for the family like the memory of origins."" Very close to Maurice she corresponded regularly with the writer who showed her great gratitude for her devotion to their bedridden mother. While Blanchot's intense affection for his mother and sister shows through in his dedications almost nothing is known of their relationships. In the only biographical essay on Blanchot Christophe Bident reveals however: ""Marguerite Blanchot venerated her brother Maurice. Very proud of him . she attached great importance to his political ideas . She read a great deal . They telephoned each other corresponded. At a distance they shared the same natural authority the same concern for discretion."" Blanchot indeed sent her numerous works from his library maintaining with her a continuous intellectual bond. As for Blanchot's passion for his mother it is in the course of his work that we discover the most beautiful testimonies: ""Perhaps the power of the maternal figure borrows its brilliance from the very power of fascination and one could say that if the Mother exercises this fascinating attraction it is because appearing when the child lives entirely under the gaze of fascination she concentrates in herself all the powers of enchantment."" Cultivating absolute discretion Blanchot pushed the art of self-effacement even into his manuscript dedications generally succinct and written almost systematically on cards attached to the rare works he gave to his close friends. In contrast in these precious inscriptions to his mother and sister Blanchot offers himself in all his fragility and reveals an intimacy hitherto unknown. Handsome copy with full margins perfectly established. Gallimard hardcover

Maurice BLANCHOT
Fragment de manuscrit autographe sur Gaston Doumergue
1934. Fine. 1934 1 page in-8 en feuilles Autograph manuscript by the author of 1 page in-8vo presumably unpublished. Incomplete recto-only manuscript in dense handwriting with some corrections and additions on the verso of a printed record of subscriptions to the Journal des Débats period from May 1934 to May 1935. This text by Maurice Blanchot was probably written shortly after the resignation of the President of the Council and former President of the Republic Gaston Doumergue which occurred on November 8 1934. The young man was then editor-in-chief at the Journal des Débats and this manuscript appears to be a draft article devoted to Doumergue's career which presumably remained unpublished after his departure from the government where he had been called in the aftermath of the February 1934 demonstrations. It is among the rare manuscripts from this period still preserved: Blanchot indeed destroyed most of his writings from the 1930s renouncing his active and political participation in the extreme right-wing press. In this text Blanchot praises Doumergue's talents as a politician: ""Toute la carrière de Doumergue est marquée par une progression constante. Elle va par un perfectionnement remarquable vers le moment de sa vie où il tentera non seulement de gouverner mais d'améliorer les moyens du gouvernement. C'est cette sorte de dialectique qui le met à part comme homme et comme homme d'Etat."" ""Doumergue's entire career is marked by constant progression. It moves through remarkable improvement toward the moment in his life when he will attempt not only to govern but to improve the means of government. It is this sort of dialectic that sets him apart as a man and as a statesman."" Rare manuscript from the 1930s. unknown
