Paperback. Condition: New. Toyen (illustrator). A manuscript of obscenely erotic poetry from Pierre Louÿs, written in secret and published after his deathBy turns amusing and offensive, Pierre Louÿs' Pybrac is possibly the filthiest collection of poetry ever published, and offers a taste of what the Marquis de Sade might have produced if he had ever turned his hand to verse. First published posthumously in 1927, Pybrac was, with The Young Girl's Handbook of Good Manners, one of the first of Louÿs' secret erotic manuscripts to see clandestine publication. Composed of 313 rhymed alexandrine quatrains, the majority of them starting with the phrase "I do not like to see.," Pybrac is in form a mockery of sixteenth-century chancellor poet Guy Du Faur, Seigneur de Pibrac, whose moralizing quatrains were common literary fare for young French readers until the nineteenth century. Louÿs spent his life coming up with his own ever-growing collection of rhymed moral precepts (suitable only for adult readers): a dizzying litany describing everything he "disliked" witnessing, from lesbianism, sodomy, incest and prostitution to perversions extreme enough to give even a modern reader pause. With the rest of his erotic manuscripts, the original collection of over 2,000 quatrains was auctioned off and scattered throughout private collections; but like everything erotic, what remains, collected here, conveys an impression of unending absurdity and near-hypnotic obsession.

kart. Condition: Gut. 158 S. : zahlr. Ill. (z.T. farb.) ; 28 cm; Gutes Ex. - TOYEN gehört zweifellos zu den Künstlerinnen von internationalem Rang und ist hierzulande noch zu entdecken. Als Marie Cerminova 1902 in Prag geboren, legt sie sehr früh den väterlichen Namen ab zugunsten eines Pseudonyms, dem scheinbar keine Spur von Weiblichkeit mehr anhaftet. 1923 schließt sie sich der tschechischen Vereinigung avantgardistischer Künstler und Intellektueller ''Devétsil" an. Mitte der zwanziger Jahre geht sie für einige Zeit nach Paris. 1927 proklamiert sie gemeinsam mit Jindrich Styrsky, ihrem Lebensgefährten, den Artifizialismus, der die Verschmelzung von Poesie und Malerei postuliert und ein Maximum an Imagination freisetzen will. 1934 gehört Toyen zu den Gründungsmitgliedern der surrealistischen Gruppe Prag. In den Jahren der Okkupation, in der ihr jede öffentliche Aktivität untersagt ist, entstehen eine Reihe eindrucksvoller surrealistischer Bilder und ein großer Teil ihres zeichnerischen Werkes. Als Toyen 1947 nach Paris übersiedelt, findet sie in Frankreich zunächst eine gewisse Publizität. In späteren Jahren aber wird es still um sie, und als sie 1980 in Paris stirbt, wird ihr Tod kaum registriert. Toyens Leben und Werk stehen für eine historische wie geographische Konstellation, in der aus der Begegnung von ost- und westeuropäischer Avantgarde - kunstgeschichtlich gesehen - etwas Neues entsteht. Herausgegeben und mit einem Essay versehen von Rita Bischof. Mit Texten von André Breton, Jindfich Heisler, Viteislav Nezval, Benjamin Péret, Frantiàek Smejkal, Philippe Soupault, Jindfich Styrsky und Karel Teige ISBN 9783801502027 Sprache: Deutsch Gewicht in Gramm: 800.
