Paris, CNRS 2000;. Deux volumes, forts in-8. Cartonnages illustrés de l'éditeur. Première édition critique intégrale du manuscrit : Les Cancans de l'Opéra ou Le Journal d'une habilleuse, de 1836 à 1848. Edition accompagnée d'une histoire sommaire de La salle Peletier, d'une chronologie théâtrale des années concernées et d'un lexique biographique des personnages cités. L'ouvrage comprend une importante iconographie théâtrale raisonnée. Parmi les manuscrits conservés à la bibliothèque de l'Opéra se trouve un « Journal » injustement méconnu des chercheurs : il porte sur les années 1836 à 1848, à l'époque où l'Opéra était situé dans la rue Le Peletier. Jean-Louis Tamvaco en fait ici l'édition critique et nous révèle notamment l'identité de son rédacteur, Louis Gentil. Par-delà les aspects anecdotiques concernant la vie de l'Académie royale de Musique au temps de son apogée romantique, l'ensemble est une source de première importance sur le climat social et artistique de l'époque. Un manuscrit, portant le titre de « Cancans de l’Opéra ou le journal d’une habilleuse », couvrant la période 1836-1848, connu de quelques rares spécialistes, n’avait jamais été étudié de manière systématique. Il représente pourtant une mine de renseignements sur la vie de l’Opéra dans les années romantiques, celles de l’apogée de la salle Le Peletier. Au prix d’une véritable enquête policière, Jean-Louis Tamvaco, dans cette première édition critique, nous donne les clés pour comprendre ce monde que le recul du temps rendait souvent indéchiffrable. « Dans cette Babylone, se côtoyaient [ ] employés du théâtre, abonnés, artistes du chant et de la danse, membres de l’orchestre, compositeurs et gens de lettres, politiciens, femmes du monde et femmes entretenues, parvenus et lions de tout poil, membres de la noblesse et de la bourgeoisie, ouvriers et garçons de théâtre » Les manuscrits (dans le volume 1), les chronologies théâtrales et les notices biographiques (dans le volume 2) nous proposent une véritable immersion dans la vie culturelle et sociale de la Monarchie de Juillet. Par-delà ce foisonnement, nous est aussi et enfin révélé le nom de l'« habilleuse » qui nous donne, après un anonymat de 150 ans, accompagné de Jean-Louis Tamvaco, un témoignage exceptionnel. Bel exemplaire état neuf.

1993"For most of us classical writing is little more than a narrow circle of legendary figures. The names of Homer, Aeschylus, Plato, Virgil, and Saint Augustine are familiar, but behind their work lies a vast fellowship of writers with a common mythological and artistic heritage. 'The Norton Book of Classical Literature' includes not only the "greats" but also significant though lesser known figures and traditions: archaic lyric poets, Alexandrian Greeks, and Roman satirists, for example. The translations selected for this collection, from classic nineteenth-century versions to as yet unpublished manuscripts, reflect the diversity of the works themselves and bring them to us with eloquence and clarity."

2002Parallel texts in Greek & English "A bilingual edition of the work of the Greek poet Sappho, in a new translation by Anne Carson. Sappho lived on the island of Lesbos from about 630 B.C. She was a musical genius who devoted her life to composing and performing songs. Of the nine books of lyrics Sappho is said to have composed, none of the music is extant and only one poem has survived complete. All the rest are fragments. In this book, Carson presents all of Sappho"s fragments in Greek and in English. Brackets and spaces give the reader a sense of what is absent as well as what is present on the papyrus. Carson"s translation illuminates Sappho"s reflections on love, desire, marriage, exile, bees, old age, shame, time, and many other aspects of the human situation" Book
