‎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"". 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. .

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 of 2 and a half quarto pages published in the December 23 1943 issue of Journal des Débats. Complete manuscript in very dense handwriting with numerous deletions corrections and additions. The complete typescript is included. This article one of the rare pieces to appear on the journal's front page is an audacious critique of the traditionalist vision of Art which arguing for the necessary adequacy between Art and Truth condemns Modernity. With implacable intellectual rigor Blanchot demonstrates how this conception of ""authentic Art"" ""joins exactly that of the surrealists"" and cites one of the major principles of Surrealism as perfect demonstration of Hourticq's remarks. In a France obsessed with rejecting Degenerate Art Blanchot reveals the contradictions of traditionalists: ""they admit that art in general precedes science and it is in the name of past science . that they condemn new movements in art."" Blanchot under the guise of literary criticism once again questions his era: . It would still be good to research whether precisely modern science does not recognize itself in the ""deformed decomposed obsolete universe that art has made familiar to our eyes."" 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.

Complete manuscript with very dense handwriting containing numerous deletions corrections and additions. The complete typescript is included. Literary chronicle published on the occasion of the publication of Les Voyages de Montesquieu prefaced by Marcel Arland. This artificial collection of Montesquieu's travel notebooks gives Blanchot the opportunity to praise a form of ""natural"" writing ""pure of all concern for readership"".

‎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.

Chronicle published on the occasion of the publication of four new novels: Les Hommes forts by Georges Magnane Le Vent se lève by Marius Grout Clément by Maurice Toesca and Si le ciel tombe by Roger de Lafforest. At the end of 1942 Maurice Blanchot reviews current literary events and provides uncompromising criticism of four novels by Georges Magnane Marius Grout Prix Goncourt winner in 1943 Maurice Toesca and Roger de Lafforest: « On voit qu'à ces quatre ouvrages la monotonie des moyens l'élusion du temps la sobriété du ton et surtout le caractère théorique du thème principal donnent l'apparence d'un conte d'une longue nouvelle qui se montre ou qui se cache sous la figure d'un roman. M. Georges Magnane n'a pu faire que son livre ne paraisse peu de chose au regard des descriptions sportives dont il l'a enrichi : l'histoire qu'il raconte ne s'impose pas ; elle reste vide ; elle s'efface. De même chez M. Toesca et M. de Lafforest il y a comme une absence d'âme qui rend inutile le jeu intellectuel dont ils ont soigneusement tendu les fils. L'esprit ne retient que l'intention qui comme telle lui paraît assez insignifiante ; à quoi bon un livre si l'art ne se rend pas inséparable de la pensée par le style dont il la marque Il y a plus de secret dans le récit de M. Marius Grout et c'est ce poids lourd ce silence grave ce plus indiscernable qui malgré toutes les explications que l'auteur a cru bon nous donner s'ajoutent à son Âœuvre comme la vérité qui ne peut être dite et l'empêchent de n'être plus rien lorsque le lecteur en a découvert la conclusion. » ""We see that these four works through the monotony of their means the evasion of time the sobriety of tone and especially the theoretical character of their main theme take on the appearance of a tale of a long short story that shows itself or hides under the guise of a novel. M. Georges Magnane could not prevent his book from appearing insignificant compared to the sporting descriptions with which he enriched it: the story he tells does not impose itself; it remains empty; it fades away. Similarly in M. Toesca and M. de Lafforest there is something like an absence of soul that renders useless the intellectual game whose threads they have carefully woven. The mind retains only the intention which as such seems quite insignificant to it; what good is a book if art does not make itself inseparable from thought through the style with which it marks it There is more mystery in M. Marius Grout's narrative and it is this heavy weight this grave silence this more indiscernible element that despite all the explanations the author thought fit to give us add to his work like truth that cannot be told and prevent it from becoming nothing when the reader has discovered its conclusion."" Between April 1941 and August 1944 Maurice Blanchot published 173 articles on recently published books in the ""Chronicle of Intellectual Life"" in 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"". From the first articles Blanchot demonstrates an acuity of analysis far exceeding the literary current events that motivate their writing.
