Best.-Nr. 009989Louis Figuier (1819-1894), écrivain, vulgarisateur scientifique. L.A.S., 14 juin [avant 1870], 2p in-8. A Arthur Mangin. Intéressante lettre dans laquelle il s'étonne qu'un article de Mangin dans La Patrie signale tous les recueils « publiés à l'imitation et presque en contrefaçons de mon année scientifique » en oubliant de signaler le principal. « Cette omission est-elle volontaire de votre part, ou vient-elle d'un désir de M. [Théodore-Casimir] Delamarre », le patron du journal La Patrie. Il demande une réponse en précisant : « Vous me faites déjà une concurrence directe, loyale et au grand jour, par votre volume illustré du nouvel an, conçu à l'imitation du mien. Je ne m'en plains pas. Mais je pourrais craindre que vous ne cherchiez à varier les moyens de nuire à un concurrent. J'écarte cette pensée mais je désire m'en expliquer franchement avec vous ». Peu commun, beau courrier. [300]
Best.-Nr. 009990Louis Figuier (1819-1894), écrivain, vulgarisateur scientifique. L.A.S., 15 juin [avant 1870], 1p in-8. A Arthur Mangin. Lettre écrite sur un ton d'excuses, Mangin ayant vraisemblablement mal pris la lettre de Figuier envoyée la veille. « Je vois au ton de votre réponse que la question était, en effet, indiscrète. Je vous prie donc de la considérer comme non avenue et de n'y point répondre, non plus qu'à la présente lettre. Je tiens seulement à vous dire combien je serais chagrin que vous ayez trouvé dans ma lettre quelque-chose de désobligeant à votre égard. ». Peu commun. [300]
