Hardcover. Very Good. 4to - over 9¾ - 12" tall. 170 page manuscript. Contemporary half speckled sheep, marbled sides. Several contemporary sheets of manuscript with mathematical notations loosely inserted. Corners repaired, a little wear and some discolouration to boards, endpapers tanned, contents with the occasional light spot but overall quite clean. Very good condition.

Manuscrit. Bon. cartonnage. In-8. 59 ff. (et ff. blancs) in-8 dans un classeur de percaline noire avec intercalaires. Emouvant carnet d'adresses du psychanalyste, soigneusement tenu à jour (parfois de la main de sa femme Hélène). On y trouve presque tous les noms (avec adresses et parfois téléphone) du milieu psychanalytique et psychiatrique parisien des années 1920 et 1930 ainsi que pas mal de pédiatres, linguistes et philosophes. Le premier nom que nous avons cherché est celui de Louis Aragon, puisque l'amitié des deux hommes est connue : nous l'avons trouvé à Neuilly ainsi qu'à l'hôtel Apollo, rue de Dunkerque à Paris. Françoise Dolto est là, au nom de Françoise Marette (13 square Henri Paté), ainsi bien sûr que Jacques Lacan (149 rue de la Pompe), Allendy, René Laforgue, Henri Bergson, Adrien Borel, Cenac, Henri Claude, Codet, Dauzat, Robert…

Manuscrit. Bon. En Feuilles. 44 pp. in-4 ou in-8, souvent découpées, montées sur papier et annotées. Impressionnant exemple du travail à quatre mains d'Edouard Pichon avec son oncle Jacques Damourette. Il s'agit d'un "rapport préliminaire" de Pichon datant de 1915, remis en forme et annoté vers 1940-1943 par son oncle Jacques Damourette. "Le plan de l'EGLF [Essai de Grammaire de la langue française] comprenait une partie sur l'utilisation artistique de la langue française, partie qui, à la suite du développement des travaux, n'a pas été exécutée. L'article sur la rime que l'on va lire est un rapport préliminaire écrit par Pichon en vue de cette partie de l'ouvrage.
