BARRÈS (Maurice) - La Colline inspirée. Nancy, Beaux livres, Grands Amis, 1962; in-4, 201 pp. paperback, in slipcase. Maurice Barrès, born in Charmes (Vosges) in 1862 and died in Neuilly-sur-Seine (Seine) on December 4, 1923, was a French writer and politician, and a leading figure in French nationalism. The main thrust of his thought is "the cult of the ego". He asserts that our first duty is to defend our ego against the "Barbarians", i.e. against anything that might weaken it in the development of its own sensibility. The second axis is summed up by the expression "la terre et les morts" ("the earth and the dead"), which testifies to Maurice Barrès's evolution towards republican nationalism and traditionalism, his attachment to roots, the family, the army and the native land. He remained one of the leading thinkers of the nationalist right between the wars. Book published to celebrate the centenary of Maurice Barrès and the fiftieth anniversary of this text. Copy no. VI on Arches vellum with a suite of 5 engravings by André Vahl, Hottier-Vahl, Lalevée, Marage and Hallez. The vignettes are by Madame Seguin-Fontès. The text is printed in Dante type size 14 and Auphan.
