Jean Casimir-Périer letters
Four letters and one calling card, all to unidentified addressees. The calling card, undated, and letter of March 5 (no year), deal with social matters; the letter of Dec. 9 (no year) informs a prefect of an upcoming local government ceremony and describes appropriate dress for the occasion; the letter of Dec. 25, 1892, sets up an appointment for a medical examination; and a printed official letter, dated Dec. 19, 1899 and signed by Casimir-Perier, invites a senator to attend an international congress on public assistance and private charity, to be held July 30-Aug. 5, 1900.
The Conspiracy
The Conspiracy is the last and most acclaimed novel by French writer and activist Paul Nizan, who died two years after its publication fighting the Germans at the Battle of Dunkirk. Hailed by Jean-Paul Sartre as Nizan's masterpiece, the book centers upon the figure of Bertrand Rosenthal, a misguided philosophy student studying in pre-war Paris. Eager to foment a revolution and having little grasp of his own motives, Rosenthal draws a small group of disciples into a conspiracy both fatuous and deadly. Simultaneously, he plunges into a forbidden-and ultimately tragic-love affair as the intertwined plots move inexorably toward their twin destinations of betrayal and death. The Conspiracy won the coveted Prix Interalli in 1938. This new edition includes Walter Benjamin's critique of the book, available here for the first time in English.
Marxism and National Identity
Provides the first sustained analysis of the collision between Marxism and nationalism in France at the time of the Dreyfus affair.
