Maurice BLANCHOT
Journal sans épisodes. 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 2½ pages in-8 published in the February 10 1944 issue of Journal des Débats. Complete manuscript with very dense handwriting containing numerous deletions corrections and additions. Literary chronicle published on the occasion of the publication of Jean Dumay's ""Journal de guerre"". The complete typescript is included. Between April 1941 and August 1944 Maurice Blanchot published 173 articles on recently published books in the ""Chronique de la vie intellectuelle"" of Journal des Débats. In half a newspaper page approximately seven pages in-8 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 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 demonstrates an analytical acuity far exceeding the literary news that motivates their writing. Oscillating between classics and moderns first-rate writers and minor novelists he establishes in his chronicles the foundations of critical thought that would mark the second half of the 20th century. Transformed by writing and by war Blanchot breaks through a thought 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 barbarism at the very heart of an ""openly Maréchaliste"" newspaper: ""Brûler un livre en écrire sont les deux actes entre lesquels la culture inscrit ses oscillations contraires"" ""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: ""romans poèmes essais donnent lieu à une réflexion singulière toujours plus sûre de sa propre rhétorique livrée davantage à l'écho de l'impossible ou aux sirènes de la disparition. . Non sans contradictions ni pas de côté et dans la certitude fiévreuse d'une uvre qui commence . ces articles révèlent la généalogie d'un critique qui a transformé l'occasion de la chronique en nécessité de la pensée."" ""novels poems essays give rise to a singular reflection ever more sure of 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 that begins . these articles reveal the genealogy of a critic who transformed the occasion of the chronicle into necessity of thought."" C. Bident. Autograph manuscripts by Maurice Blanchot are extremely rare. S. n.[ Journal des débats] unknown

L'espace littéraire
Paris: Gallimard 1968. Fine. Gallimard Paris 1968 11 x 16.50 cm broché New pocket edition an advance copy. Moving and precious signed autograph inscription from Maurice Blanchot to his sister Marguerite: ""Pour ma très chère soeur Marguerite ce livre prémisses peut-être de ""la fin du livre"" avec les tendres excuses de MB."" ""For my very dear sister Marguerite this book perhaps the premises of ""the end of the book"" with tender apologies from MB."" Marguerite Blanchot a 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 invalid mother. While Blanchot's intense affection for his mother and sister shows through in his dedications we know almost nothing of their relationship. In the only biographical essay on Blanchot Christophe Bident reveals however: ""Marguerite Blanchot revered her brother Maurice. Very proud of him . she attached great importance to his political ideas . She read extensively . 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. A handsome copy. Gallimard unknown

Maurice BLANCHOT - (Marcel PROUST)
L'expérience de Proust. Manuscrit autographe complet The Proust Experience. Complete Autograph Manuscript
1943. Fine. 1943 21 x 13 cm en feuilles Autograph manuscript by the author four and a half pages in octavo published in the issue of Journal des Débats dated 12 May 1943. Complete recto-verso manuscript in a dense hand featuring numerous deletions corrections and additions. A literary column written on the occasion of the publication of Ramon Fernandezs book À la gloire de Proust. It was to Maurice Blanchot that his friend Emmanuel Levinas owed his discovery of the work of Marcel Proust which he deeply admired despite Charles Maurrass condemnationa judgment that at first failed to turn him away from it. What Blanchot valued most in Proust was his at times fluid rhythm and his remarkable sense of the scene. Placing him within his literary pantheon alongside the Marquis de Sade and Franz Kafka Blanchot was drawn in the early 1940s to the very nature of the experience Proust conveyed in his novels: « L'uvre de Proust est sortie d'états mystérieux qui semblent ne lui avoir été proposés que pour que cette uvre fût écrite. Ils ont servi de stimulant à une extraordinaire avidité de connaître et eux qui étaient d'abord une rupture de connaissance ont fourni un aliment inépuisable à la connaissance littéraire. Cependant ce n'est pas l'aspect le moins surprenant du Temps perdu que dans le flot d'images d'événements de théories de figures dont ils ont été par abus la source ces états aient gardé la valeur d'un secret en continuant selon le pouvoir qui leur était propre à paraître toujours plus mystérieux que l'uvre elle-même pourtant toute chargée de mystères. C'est en cela que Proust n'a pas trahi la révélation qu'il a rencontrée et dont il a offert l'image à la plus étendue et la plus admirable comme pour montrer qu'elle ne l'épuisait pas. » The text later revised would become part of the opening section of Faux Pas 1943 devoted to what Blanchot regarded as the fundamental question of inner experience. A very clean manuscript reflecting Blanchots clarity of thought on Proust. unknown

Le baron d'Holbach. Manuscrit autographe et tapuscrit complets Baron d'Holbach. Complete autograph manuscript and typescript
s. l. Paris: S. n. Journal des débats 1943. Fine. S. n. Journal des débats s. l. Paris s. d. 1943 13.50 x 21.50 cm 4 1/2 pages in-8 Autograph manuscript by the author of 4½ pages in quarto published in the November 27-28 1943 issue of Journal des Débats. Complete manuscript with very dense handwriting containing numerous deletions corrections and additions. Literary chronicle published on the occasion of the publication of Paul Thiry d'Holbach et la philosophie scientifique au XVIIIe siècle by Pierre Naville. The complete typescript is included. Far more than a critique of Pierre Naville's work on Baron d'Holbach this long article by Blanchot is a veritable philosophical pamphlet against the materialist thought of the Encyclopedists whom he accuses of wanting to « know the world in order to seize it. This is a notable expression of the bourgeois spirit. . Man can only dominate the world if the world is a collection of objects. » But through this virulent critique of 18th-century thought Blanchot identifies a more modern evil: « To make man a thing that can be studied . is to ensure that he can be used as a thing and exploited as a thing. All the social contradictions of liberalism are already in this assertion. And its starting point is the Encyclopedia. » Between April 1941 and August 1944 Maurice Blanchot published 173 articles on recently published books in the ""Chronicle of Intellectual Life"" of Journal des Débats. In half a page of the newspaper 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 very first articles Blanchot demonstrated an analytical acuity that far exceeded the literary current events that motivated their writing. Oscillating between classics and moderns first-rate writers and minor novelists he laid in his chronicles the foundations of a critical thought 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 barbarity at the very heart of an ""openly Maréchal-supporting"" newspaper: ""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 a singular reflection increasingly confident in its own rhetoric more given over 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 that begins . these articles reveal the genealogy of a critic who transformed the occasion of the chronicle into the necessity of thought.""

Maurice BLANCHOT - (Jean GIRAUDOUX)
Le mythe de Giraudoux. Manuscrit autographe et tapuscrit complets.
s. l. Paris: S. n. Paysage dimanche 1945. Fine. S. n. Paysage dimanche s. l. Paris s. d. 1945 11.50 x 22 cm 3 pages in-4 Autograph manuscript by the author 3 quarto pages published in issue 17 of October 7 1945 of the newspaper Le Paysage Dimanche. Complete manuscript in very dense handwriting with numerous deletions corrections and additions. Chronicle published on the occasion of the numerous studies on Giraudoux's work that appeared since his death in January 1944. The complete typescript is included. While the numerous references to his work in the articles of the Journal des Débats reveal Giraudoux's ascendancy over Blanchot the latter nevertheless manifests a clear desire to free himself from this paternity. Thus he removes from Faux-Pas numerous references to Giraudoux's work cf C. Bident M. B. De la chronique à la théorisation. This article published in 1945 is a unique testimony to the ambivalence of feelings toward an admired master who could no longer serve as a model for his disciple transformed by writing and war. ""Certes un auteur comme celui de Judith ne peut pas être un auteur de tout repos mais ce qu'il a créé est beau et ce beau n'est pas ""ce qui nous désespère"". Il est trop facile de voir que quoi qu'il veuille il ne va jamais jusqu'à compromettre en son art l'harmonie la compréhension la mesure. Comme une malédiction jetée sur la réalité inaccessible il formerait un monde entièrement faux Mais pas si faux: nous n'y perdons pas pied nous ne cessons de nous y reconnaitre et au contraire pour certains comme Sartre c'est celui de la banalité même des concepts de chaque jour."" ""Certainly an author like the one who wrote Judith cannot be a restful author but what he has created is beautiful and this beauty is not 'what drives us to despair'. It is too easy to see that whatever he may wish he never goes so far as to compromise in his art harmony understanding measure. Like a curse cast upon inaccessible reality would he form an entirely false world But not so false: we do not lose our footing there we never cease to recognize ourselves in it and on the contrary for some like Sartre it is that of the very banality of everyday concepts."" 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"".

Le Paradoxe d'Aytré - Manuscrit original et tapuscrit complets
s. l.: S. n. 1949. Fine. S. n. s. l. 1949 13.50 x 21.50 cm Autograph manuscript by the author of 16 pages in-8 published in number 9 June 1946 of Les Temps modernes and reprinted slightly revised in La Part du Feu 1949. Complete recto-verso manuscript very densely written with numerous deletions corrections and additions. Accompanied by the complete typescript with autograph corrections in black ink. ""Le Paradoxe d'Aytré"" ""Aytré's Paradox"" is the first text by Maurice Blanchot that Jean-Paul Sartre published in the pages of Les Temps modernes the spearhead of committed literature. Three others would follow until 1952 ""Le roman uvre de mauvaise foi"" ""The Novel a Work of Bad Faith"" ""A la rencontre de Sade"" ""Meeting Sade"" and ""L'art la littérature et l'expérience originelle"" ""Art Literature and Original Experience"" all of great importance. Continuing his reflection begun several years earlier on the writer's struggle with language and his relationship to silence notably in his article ""Le Mythe d'Oreste"" ""The Myth of Orestes"" Blanchot bases his demonstration here on Aytré qui perd l'habitude ""Aytré Who Loses the Habit"" by Jean Paulhan - a major influence - who notably provides him with the title of his article: ""De ce petit récit il ne résulte pas que la littérature ne doive logiquement commencer qu'avec le crime ou à défaut avec le vol. Mais qu'elle suppose un écroulement une sorte de catastrophe initiale et le vide même que mesurent l'anxiété et le souci c'est ce qu'on peut être tenté de voir. Or remarquons-le cette catastrophe ne s'exerce pas seulement sur le monde les objets qu'on manie . ; elle s'étend aussi et en même temps au langage à la possibilité des mots. C'est là le paradoxe d'Aytré."" ""From this little story it does not follow that literature should logically begin only with crime or failing that with theft. But that it presupposes a collapse a sort of initial catastrophe and the very void that anxiety and worry measure this is what one might be tempted to see. Now let us note this catastrophe is not exercised only on the world the objects we handle .; it extends also and at the same time to language to the possibility of words. This is Aytré's paradox."" And he adds: ""L'écrivain ne débute pas toujours avec le sang d'un fait divers ou l'horreur d'un crime qui lui ferait sentir l'instabilité et le vide du monde mais il ne peut guère songer à commencer autrement que par une certaine incapacité de parler et d'écrire par une perte de mots par l'absence même des moyens dont il surabonde. Ainsi lui est-il indispensable de sentir d'abord qu'il n'a rien à dire."" ""The writer does not always begin with the blood of a news item or the horror of a crime that would make him feel the instability and emptiness of the world but he can hardly think of beginning otherwise than with a certain inability to speak and write with a loss of words with the very absence of the means of which he has abundance. Thus it is essential for him to feel first that he has nothing to say."" Jean Paulhan therefore but also Franz Kafka Herman Melville or Stéphane Mallarmé so many writers admired by Blanchot confronted Aytré's paradox silence the collapse of language. And the critic concludes: "". le silence du langage créateur ce silence qui nous fait parler n'est pas seulement une absence de parle mais une absence tout court cette distance que nous mettons entre les choses et nous et en nous-mêmes et dans les mots et qui fait que le langage le plus plein est aussi le plus poreux le plus transparent le plus nul car il laisse infiniment fuir le creux même qu'il enferme sorte de petit alcarazas du vide."" "". the silence of creative language this silence that makes us speak is not only an absence of speech but an absence pure and simple this distance that we put between things and ourselves and within ourselves and in words and which makes the fullest language also the most S. n. unknown

Le pèlerinage aux sources - 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 2½ pages octavo published in the January 13 1944 issue of the Journal des Débats. Complete recto-verso manuscript in very dense handwriting with numerous deletions corrections and additions. Accompanied by the complete typescript with one autograph correction in black ink. Chronicle published on the occasion of the publication of Le pèlerinage aux sources by Joseph Lanza del Vasto. This chronicle by Maurice Blanchot forms an astonishing echo to one of his very first published texts 1931 devoted to Gandhi's Memoirs which already contained the essence of his thought from the 1930s. Published in the pages of Cahiers mensuels a Catholic review close to the thinking of Jacques Maritain Blanchot defended the idea of a necessarily spiritual revolution but also of a struggle against the impurity of foreign influences. In ""Le pèlerinage aux sources"" Blanchot returns to Gandhi through a recently published work by Joseph Lanza del Vasto in which the Italian philosopher analyzes ""the hope of renewal that many Westerners seek often lightly in the profound secrets of Hinduism"". But for Blanchot Gandhi's action could hardly constitute a true example to follow: ""Naturally we all understand that Gandhi's politics tends not only toward a political victory but toward a spiritual victory: he wants to deliver the people from their ills from their ignorance to make them live the truth; all this is quite clear; what is also clear is that among these ills there is first the presence of the foreigner and that the regime recommended by the Mahatma and with a view to which he brings into play spiritual forces is a regime of political economic and social liberation. It is impossible not to see . in this rehabilitation of external action the distortion of the spiritual ideal. Man is no longer asked to strip himself of himself for nothing without any formidable end being able to justify him in this total annihilation but he receives the order to arrange the world to conquer himself with a view to making reality better. It is an inglorious return to the most vulgar morality of salvation."" An interesting critique of Mahatma Gandhi's political action. 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 page of newspaper 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 would later develop in his numerous essays from ""La Part du feu"" to ""L'Entretien infini"" and ""L'Écriture du désastre.""

Half blue morocco binding smooth spine gilt date at foot covers with marbled paper blue paper endpapers and pastedowns original wrappers and spine preserved spine slightly sunned with small filled losses top edge gilt binding signed by Goy & Vilaine. Exceptional and moving signed autograph inscription from Maurice Blanchot to his mother and sister: ""Pour vous mes très chères ces pages hélas bien anciennes en toute affection. Maurice. / Mais avant le commencement il y a le recommencement qui fait de la lumière une fascination de toute chose une image et de nous le coeur vide du ressassement éternel"" ""For you my very dear ones these pages alas quite old with all my affection. Maurice. / But before the beginning there is the re-beginning which makes light a fascination everything an image and us the empty heart of eternal rehearsal"". Half-title page bearing the inscription very slightly and marginally shaded. Marguerite Blanchot renowned organist at Chalon cathedral remained all her life in the family home with her mother and aunt. ""She gradually became 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 disabled mother. While Blanchot's intense affection for his mother and sister shows through in his dedications we know almost nothing 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 extensively . They telephoned each other corresponded. From 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 effacement even into his manuscript dedications generally succinct and written almost systematically on cards attached to the rare works he offered to his close friends. In contrast in these precious inscriptions to his mother and sister Blanchot offers himself in all his fragility and reveals a hitherto unknown intimacy. Fine copy perfectly established.

Maurice BLANCHOT - (Horace WALPOLE) - Paul ELUARD
Le roman noir - Manuscrit autographe et tapuscrit complets he Noir Novel Complete Autograph Manuscript and Typescript
s. l. Paris: S. n. Journal des débats 1944. Fine. S. n. Journal des débats s. l. Paris 1944 13.50 x 21 cm 2 pages 1/2 in-4 Autograph manuscript by the author 2½ pages in-8 published in the issue of 30 March 1944 of the Journal des Débats. Complete recto-verso manuscript in very dense handwriting containing numerous deletions corrections and additions. This is a review published on the occasion of the reissue of Horace Walpole's The Castle of Otranto with a preface by Paul Eluard. Accompanied by the complete typescript. The reissue by Éditions José Corti of Horace Walpole's The Castle of Otranto with a preface by Paul Eluard offered Maurice Blanchot the opportunity to set out his definition of the Gothic novel which thanks notably to the Surrealists was then enjoying a revival of interest: ""Le roman noir ne se confond pas simplement avec la littérature fantastique. S'il fait une large part au merveilleux ""de toute nature"" il a pour principal objet d'émouvoir la sensibilité par les ressources de la terreur. il veut secouer l'imagination. Il l'entraîne dans un mouvement frénétique qui ne lui laisse pas de repos. Il la provoque à tout croire hormis les dénouements heureux et les compromis agréables par des moyens dont le caractère conventionnel augmente encore la puissance. C'est un art méthodique qui connaît sa grossiéreté et en tire souvent des effets subtils et remarquables."" Blanchot then pursues an almost political analysis of the Gothic novelborn in the age of pre-revolutionary rationalism flourishing in the wake of 1789 before flagging under the Restoration. And he concludes: ""Horace Walpole est beaucoup plus qu'un précurseur. Avec ce volume fort mince il apparait vraiment comme l'auteur de milliers d'ouvrages qui sont nés de lui. Avec ce volume fort mince sic il est le plus fécond des écrivains."" Between April 1941 and August 1944 Maurice Blanchot published in the ""Chronique de la vie intellectuelle"" of the Journal des Débats 173 articles on recently published books. In a half-page of newspaper approximately seven in-8 pages the young author of Thomas l'obscur took his first steps in the field of literary criticism inaugurating a body of 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 very first articles Blanchot demonstrated an acuity of analysis far surpassing the literary news that occasioned their writing. Oscillating between classics and moderns major writers and minor novelists he laid down in his columns the foundations of a critical thought that would shape the second half of the twentieth century. Transformed by writing and by the war Blanchot gradually broke in the exercise of a thought developed ""in the name of the other"" with the violent certainties of his youthful adherence to Maurras. Not without paradox he thus transformed literary criticism into a philosophical act of intellectual resistance to barbarism at the very heart of a newspaper that was ""openly maréchaliste"": ""Brûler un livre en écrire sont les deux actes entre lesquels la culture inscrit ses oscillations contraires"" ""Le livre"" in Journal des Débats 20 January 1943. In 2007 the Cahiers de la NRF under the direction of Christophe Bident brought together all the literary columns not yet published in volumes accompanied by a pertinent analysis of Blanchots critical work: ""romans poèmes essais donnent lieu à une réflexion singulière toujours plus sûre de sa propre rhétorique livrée davantage à l'écho de l'impossible ou aux sirènes de la disparition. . Non sans contradictions ni pas de côté et dans la certitude fiévreuse d'une uvre qui commence . ces articles révèlent la généalogie d'un critique qui a transformé l'occasion de la chronique en nécessité de la pensée."" C. Bident. Maurice Blanchots autograph manuscripts are of the utmost rarity. S. n.[ Journal des débats] unknown

Maurice BLANCHOT - (Yvon BELAVAL)
Le souci de sincérité. 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 pages in-4 published in the March 2 1944 issue of Journal des Débats. Complete manuscript with very dense writing containing numerous strikethroughs corrections and additions. Literary chronicle published on the occasion of the publication in the new collection of Gallimard editions devoted to ""La Jeune Philosophie"" of the work ""Le souci de sincérité"" by Yvon Belaval. The complete typescript is included. Under Blanchot's pen philosophical criticism acquires its own autonomy which makes it impossible to distinguish between Belaval's original thought and the luminous interpretation that Maurice Blanchot offers of it in a few pages. « L'homme sincère veut rompre avec la solitude où l'ont enfermé à la fois la réflexion et la faiblesse. Il rêve d'un retour au ""nous"" primitif mais il se contente de le rêver : il s'enchante de ses scrupules il ne parle qu'à soi-même et ne parle que de soi il échoue et jouit de ses échecs. » ""The sincere man wants to break with the solitude in which both reflection and weakness have confined him. He dreams of a return to the primitive 'we' but he contents himself with dreaming it: he is enchanted by his scruples he speaks only to himself and speaks only of himself he fails and enjoys his failures."" No concern for sincerity therefore in Blanchot but a rigorous intellectual mechanism which does not fear to free itself from the limits of the text studied to deploy all its philosophical potential. Between April 1941 and August 1944 Maurice Blanchot published 173 articles on recently published books in the ""Chronique de la vie intellectuelle"" of Journal des Débats. In half a page of newspaper about 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 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 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 a critical thought that would mark the second half of the twentieth century. Transformed by writing and by war Blanchot breaks through a thought 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 barbarism at the very heart of an ""openly Maréchaliste"" newspaper: ""To burn a book to write one these 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 always 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 that begins . these articles reveal the genealogy of a critic who transformed the occasion of the chronicle into the necessity of thought."" C. Bident. The autograph manuscripts of Maurice Blanchot are extremely rare. S. n.[ Journal des débats] unknown

Les malheurs de Peau d'Âne. Manuscrit autographe et tapuscrit complets The Misfortunes of Donkey Skin. Complete autograph manuscript and typescript
n. l. Paris: s. n. Paysage dimanche 1945. Fine. s. n. Paysage dimanche n. l. Paris s. d. 1945 11.50 x 22 cm 3 pages in-4 Autograph manuscript by the author 3 pages in-8 published in issue 21 4 November 1945 of Paysage Dimanche. Complete manuscript written on both sides in a very dense hand with numerous deletions corrections and additions. Together with the complete typescript bearing 3 autograph corrections in black ink. This text by Maurice Blanchot « Les malheurs de ""Peau d'âne"" » contains two paradoxes. Contrary to what its title suggests it does not deal with the work of Charles Perrault; furthermore this column is devoted to the tales of an author whom the critic had already cited in his article on the fantastic novel published the previous year in the Journal des Débats and whose work he appeared to have little taste for: Noël Devaulx. Yet with nuance Blanchot here reveals to the reader the qualities of these tales and beyond that their terrible relevance in the year 1945: « Il y a dans ces récits d'au-delà du monde un certain charme provincial qui est assez singulier ; ils n'ont assurément rien à voir avec quelque folklore mais se déroulant comme tout vrai conte ""aux environs de l'absence"" ils finissent par nous imposer cette impression que nulle part est une province morte que c'est un lieu aussi suranné précieux et ridicule que peut l'être la province la plus archaïque. Or cette impression ne laisse pas de nous inquiéter. Car ce monde qu'on nous découvre et qui a la fragilité l'air endormi et sournois des objets dans les vieilles maisons c'est le nôtre mais c'est surtout celui de nos inquiétudes les plus brûlantes celui de la surnature et du surréel. . Après la lecture de L'Auberge on rêve à l'autre monde comme à un modeste salon de campagne du dehors encore très respectable de bonne compagnie et même solide mais qu'on y entre et tout vole en poussière. » A subtly political reading of Noël Devaulxs tales. s. n.

Les plaintes de l'ombre. 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 21.50 cm 2 1/2 pages in-8 Autograph manuscript by the author 2½ pages octavo published in the December 10 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 Passage de l'homme by Marius Grout winner of the 1943 Prix Goncourt. Accompanied by the complete typescript. Blanchot's critique of this future Prix Goncourt winner is not gentle although he perfectly grasps its stakes. This story whose tragic unfolding ends in a deception that creates a new faith contains for Blanchot an equivocal moral. ""We understand what Marius Grout seeks to show; that men cannot live without a dream of transcendence that miracle has no need of truth . But . if men need to live an ideal that is a fable the question arises of knowing whether after all men need to live."" The question would be pure rhetoric for a modern novel but in 1943 ""the writer who accepts to treat themes where man's destiny is at stake . puts himself at stake he bets himself; if he loses he loses himself."" 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 page of newspaper 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 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 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 a critical thought that would mark the second half of the 20th century.

Complete manuscript with very dense handwriting containing numerous deletions corrections and additions. The complete typescript is included. Each chapter of Roland Cailleux's novel Saint-Genès ou la vie brève presents a different narrative form. This gives Blanchot the opportunity to return to the interest of this literary audacity initiated a few years earlier by Joyce: ""The novel showed itself there with all its possibilities it metamorphosed into everything it could be."" Between April 1941 and August 1944 Maurice Blanchot published 173 articles on recently published books in the ""Chronique de la vie intellectuelle"" of Journal des Débats. In half a newspaper page about 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 would later develop in his numerous essays from ""La Part du feu"" to ""L'Entretien infini"" and ""L'Écriture du désastre"".

Lettre tapuscrite à Sartre
1960. Fine. 2 décembre 1960 26.70 x 20.90 cm 5 feuillets in-4 Draft typescript of letter to Jean-Paul Sartre with autograph corrections and with a second version of the first page and typescript with autograph corrections of ""Le monde en question Cours du monde"" project for La Revue internationale Set of five typescript leaves rectos only with the exception of one leaf recto-verso with corrections in red and black ballpoint pen in Maurice Blanchot's hand. This important collection bears witness to the exchanges between Maurice Blanchot and Jean-Paul Sartre around the famous ""Déclaration sur le droit à l'insoumission dans la guerre d'Algérie"" and the publication project that resulted from it La Revue internationale. Known as the ""Manifeste des 121"" this declaration signed by numerous intellectuals and artists and published on September 6 1960 had been drafted by Dionys Mascolo and Jean Schuster assisted by Maurice Blanchot in anticipation of the trial of the Jeanson network a group of French militants supporting the FLN and with the aim of informing public opinion about the protest movement against the Algerian War and its anti-democratic excesses. Among the signatories was of course Sartre. The manifesto had made many personalities aware of the influence they could exercise in public debate even in the course of History. It was in this context that in autumn 1960 Maurice Blanchot Dionys Mascolo and Elio Vittorini decided to create a review that would be not literary but critical whose purpose would be to continue this action. They sought the help of Jean-Paul Sartre whose extraordinary aura would benefit the publication favorably. In his letter to Sartre Blanchot attempts to convince the philosopher to join the project: ""Vous m'avez rappelé ce que j'ai dû dire quelquefois et que j'ai toujours intimement pensé : que la Déclaration ne trouverait son vrai sens que si elle était le commencement de quelque chose."" ""You reminded me of what I must have said sometimes and what I have always intimately thought: that the Declaration would only find its true meaning if it were the beginning of something."" "". Je voudrais dire mon sentiment propre : je crois que si nous voulons représenter comme il faut sans équivoque le changement dont nous avons les uns et les autres le pressentiment si nous voulons le rendre plus réel et l'approfondir dans sa présence mouvante c'est seulement à partir d'un organe nouveau que nous pourrons le faire. A partir de là si l'on voit Sartre et d'autres avec lui parmi les 121 décider de s'exprimer en cette forme choisie délibérément comme nouvelle chacun "" ""I would like to express my own feeling: I believe that if we want to represent as we should unequivocally the change that we all have a premonition of if we want to make it more real and deepen it in its moving presence it is only from a new organ that we will be able to do so. From there if we see Sartre and others with him among the 121 decide to express themselves in this form deliberately chosen as new everyone"" "". comprendra que vraiment nous entrons dans une nouvelle phase et que quelque chose de décisif a lieu qui cherche à s'affirmer."" ""will understand that we are truly entering a new phase and that something decisive is taking place that seeks to assert itself."" But Sartre would refuse to commit to the review. However during the first six months of 1961 Blanchot devoted himself body and soul to the project hoping it would come to fruition. The typescript included here ""Le monde en question Cours du monde"" reveals the table of contents he envisioned for the first issue: texts on destalinization the situation of the German press intellectual compartmentalization in France and Italy hunger strikes and the Berlin Wall and utopia. The review would never see the light of day to the great despair of Blanchot who was deeply enthusiastic about the idea of collective and international writi unknown

Maurice BLANCHOT - (Ernest HEMINGWAY)
Manuscrit autographe sur Hemingway intitulé traduit de . Autograph manuscript on Hemingway
1946. Fine. 1946 13.50 x 21 cm en feuilles HEMINGWAY BLANCHOT Maurice. Autograph manuscript on Hemingway 1946 16 pages 1/2 in-8 135 x 21 cm loose leaves Author's autograph manuscript 16 and a half 8vo pages published in number 17 of L'Arche July 1946 and reprinted with slight modifications in La Part du Feu 1949. Complete manuscript written recto-verso very densely spaced with numerous deletions corrections and additions. In order to examine the problems related to the translation of a literary text into another language Maurice Blanchot looks at the contemporary American novel and its perception in Europe. Many good critics complain about American literature: they find it less than original and of middling interest for a culture that moved over fifty years ago beyond naturalism. They make fun of young writers who think they're being modern by imitating Faulkner Dos Passos or Steinbeck while for Americans themselves these writers are more of yesterday than tomorrow. Thus the critic for whom the oddities of language particular to any literary work survive translation takes the example of a novel by Ernest Hemingway. In For Whom the Bell Tolls Robert Jordan discovering the importance of the moment he is living repeats the word now' in several languages. Maintenant ahora now heute. But he is somewhat disappointed by the mediocrity of this vocabulary and looks for other words.
. He tries to find in language links between these words and what they mean for him his meeting with Maria who is also his meeting with his final hour his meeting with death.
The word Todt seems to him the most dead of all the word Krieg the one that resembles war most closely. Or is it just that he knew German less well than the other languages This reflection fascinates Blanchot: This impression of Robert Jordan's can give us food for thought. If it's true that a language seems more expressive and more real to us when we know it less if words need a certain ignorance to keep their virtue from being revealed this paradox should hardly surprise us since translators come across it all the time and it represents both one of the principal challenges and one of the foremost riches of all translation. An inspired look at the work of Ernest Hemingway and the problem of translation. unknown
