Poe's original English adjacent Manet's illustrations with Stéphane Mallarmé's French translation following in sequence.

P. S. Poeme Mallarmien contre la guerre. Ce Mal, l'Arme. Un mâle, larme, Si mal arme, m'alarme. Eh?" Or, approximately translated: "March 1973, To Albert Sonnenfeld, on behalf of a disciple (until now very little discipline) recognizing the influence of the lessons of the dear master. - Jack Deaver, Marquis de Facades. P. S. Mallarmien Poem against War. This Evil, the army. A male, tears. So evil weapon, alarms me. Hey?" Apparently, Albert Sonnenfeld is a French literature and comparative literature educator, food historian and since 2004 a Professor emeritus. He is a Fulbright fellow, 1966-1967; 1958 - 1986: Professor, French and comparative literature Princeton University; 1986 - 2004: M.F. Chevalier professor , French and department chairman University Southern California; and a member of The Athenaeum (London). Also, interestingly, listed as a noteworthy literature educator and historian by Marquis Who's Who. Translation by Stephane Mallarme, whose real name was Etienne Mallarme, was a French poet and critic, and a major French symbolist poet. His work anticipated and inspired several revolutionary artistic schools of the early 20th century, such as Dadaism, Surrealism, and Futurism. Edgar Allan Poe was an American author, poet, editor and literary critic, considered part of the American Romantic Movement. Prolificly famous for his tales of mystery and the macabre, he was one of the earliest American practitioners of the short story and considered the originator of detective fiction. He is further credited with contributing to the emerging genre of science fiction and was the first well-known American author to solely rely on his writing, resulting in hard times intersperced w/splendor. The 1875 Parisian edition marked a turning point in the history of the illustrated book. Translated by Mallarmé, w/lithographs by Manet, the bilingual volume was a bold, early attempt at a new type of collaboration -the livre d'artiste, a genre which eventually flourished in the twentieth century. The constellation of Mallarmé, Manet and Poe appealed to the avant-garde in French literature and art. When first published, Le Corbeau faced hostile criticism in regards to Manet's modernist imagery. It sold poorly and nearly twenty-five years passed before any publisher dared a similar combination of art and literature. Nevertheless, a door had been opened. Manet's illustrations are believed to have been printed directly from stone by transfer lithography. Edgar Allan Poe's hazy narrative begins on a night in December when "The Raven" haunts the unnamed narrator who sits reading "forgotten lore" to sublimate the loss of his love, Lenore. A "rapping at his chamber door" reveals nothing, yet excites his soul to "burning". A similar rapping, slightly louder, is heard at his window. Oversize, insured post. Size: 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall.

Burdin et Cie (Angers) in an unspecified, very limited edition, sewn in original wrappers printed in black and red, untrimmed, 24,9 x 16,2 cm. = Splendid, delicate publication. Carteret II, p.95.

The printed backwrapper lists other delicacies by the same publisher: "Curiosités littéraires, volumes et plaquettes de luxe tirés à très petit nombre publiés par Léon Vanier (.)." "Julie L. Mellby, Stéphane Mallarmé and Édouard Manet (Princeton): "In 1865, Stéphane Mallarmé composed a poem about the sensual experiences of a faun who wakes from an afternoon nap and recounts his encounter with several nymphs earlier in the day. Originally titled Le Faune, intermède héroique (The Faun, a Heroic Intermezzo), Mallarmé submitted it to the Théâtre-Français, only to be rejected. Ten years later, the work was again rejected, under the title Improvisation d un Faune, by Alphonse Lemerre, who had previously published Mallarmé work in Parnasse contemporain. Mallarmé left Lemerre and found Alphonse Derenne, a publisher of medical books who wanted to expand his business. Under the title L après-midi d un faune, Mallarmé s pastoral was finally published in April 1876. His best friend, Édouard Manet (1832-1883), created four wood-engraved embellishments that were printed in black and hand tinted in pink by Manet himself to save money. Although Mallarmé is a seminal figure of our modern literary heritage, few editions of his own work were published during his lifetime. Mallarmé s work would become the inspiration for many musical pieces, the most prominent of which was Claude Debussy s Prélude à l après-midi d un faune (1894), a ten-minute tonal interpretation of Faune. Other composers who adapted the melodic aspects of Mallarmé s poetry were Maurice Ravel in Trois poèmes de Stéphane Mallarmé (1913), Darius Milhaud with Chansons bas de Stéphane Mallarmé (1917), and Pierre Boullez, whose hour-long solo soprano and orchestra piece Pli selon pli (1957-62). The poem also served as the basis for the ballet L après-midi d un faune, choreographed by Vaslav Nijinsky for the Ballets Russes and first performed in the Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris on May 29, 1912. Nijinsky danced the main part himself, which became a seminal moment in the history of dance."Wrappers frayed/ creased along edges and slightly dustsoiled.
