" Il y a une tradition poétique et c'est la tradition de la découverte, de l'invention, la recherche d'un beau et d'un bien toujours nouveau. Le développement de l'imagination est lié à la transformation sociale : ils se commandent réciproquement. L'imagination change de monde. Il n'y a pas d'explorateurs ou d'inventeurs sans imagination. Cette reine du monde est la mère du progrès. Et, tout en donnant raison à [Vladimir] Maïakovsky, qui supposait l'existence dans la société de problèmes dont la solution n'est imaginable que par l'œuvre poétique ", l'on peut espérer que l'œuvre poétique trouvera la solution par la… Read More

ÉLUARD, Paul (1895-1952)
Autograph manuscript signed " Paul Eluard ", destined to Pierre SeghersN.p.n.d [c. May 1943], 6 p. in-8° (including title page)Fine condition
A precious series of poems, including the famous N., written for Poésie 43, then reprinted in the second edition of his world renowned collection Poésie et vérité 1942

This collection, entitled "Three Poems" by Éluard, was intended for Pierre Seghers, director of the journal Poésie. The poet soberly signed the manuscript of his name on the title page: Trois Poèmes. The chronology of the poems in the manuscript is such that it appears in the published collection. The pagination of each leaf, in multicoloured pencil, is also in Éluard's hand.

The series is dedicated to his friend Louis Aragon. Later that year, five of the seven poems appeared in the expanded edition… Read More
