Description

[HARAUCOURT (Edmond)]. La Légende des Sexes, hysterical poems. Bruxelles, pour l'auteur, 1882. In-8, 147 pp. and [1] f. Havana morocco, ornate ribbed spine, gilt title, double gilt fillet and wide gilt lace trim, gilt head, int. lace, covers preserved (modern binding). Rare first edition of this famous collection of erotic poems, printed in an edition of only 212 copies, not placed on the market. A very fine copy, unjustified, enriched with a very fine suite of 12 very free engravings attributed to VAN MAELE (unsigned). Edmond Haraucourt published this text under the pseudonym Sire de Chambley. "Contrary to the title, this work in licentious verse, which falls under the law, was not printed in Brussels but in Nevers, while the author was staying there as "rédacteur-gérant" of the Republic, and it was at the Imprimerie Nivernaise, quai de Loire, that the Légende des Sexes was composed and printed by an old typo Fischer, who alone and in the greatest secrecy, did all the composition of the book. [...] E.H. could not disavow authorship of this book, for not only did all the copies distributed of the original edition bear an ex dono in his hand [which is not as systematic in reality], but 16 pieces had appeared under his signature in the Chat Noir" (Talvard VIII, p. 64.) Ex-libris JM.
