soft cover. Condition: fine. first edition. - - - - - - - Critique est une revue littéraire, philosophique et artistique mensuelle créée en 1946 par Georges Bataille, puis dirigée pendant cinquante ans par son ami Jean Piel. Paraissant à l'origine aux éditions du Chêne, elle est éditée depuis 1950 par Les Éditions de Minuit. Georges Bataille veut créer dès la fin de l'année 1945 une nouvelle revue qui rendrait compte selon lui de « l'essentiel de la pensée humaine prise dans les meilleurs livres. L'une des plus anciennes revues, Le Journal des savants qui date du xviie siècle suivait cette formule. » Le projet n'aboutit que l'année suivante et en juin 1946 paraît le premier numéro qui comporte notamment un article sur Henry Miller dont Bataille prendra plus tard la défense après son inculpation pour obscénité. Critique porte en sous-titre : Revue générale des publications françaises et étrangères ; et sous la direction de Bataille, avec Pierre Prévost comme rédacteur en chef, le comité de rédaction comprend à l'origine Maurice Blanchot, Albert Ollivier, Éric Weil, Jules Monnerot et Pierre Josserand . Le second comité, considérablement élargi, comptera une trentaine de membres, parmi lesquels on peut citer Marcel Arland, Raymond Aron, Louis de Broglie, René Char, René Huyghe, Alexandre Koyré, Mario Praz, Paul Rivet, Jean Wahl. Après Pierre Prévost, c'est Éric Weil qui sera le rédacteur en chef, remplacé ensuite par Jean Piel. Contrairement à de précédentes revues qu'il anima, comme Documents ou Acéphale, s'agissant de Critique, Georges Bataille n'en fit pas « l'organe » d'une communauté, sans compter que la revue perdure, contrairement aux entreprises brèves et chaotiques initiées par Bataille. De fait, la plus grande disparité préside à la rédaction de la revue, même si beaucoup de contributeurs, mais pas tous, sont des amis de Bataille. Au sommaire des quatre premiers numéros parus entre juin et septembre 1946 figurent les noms de Jean Maquet, Jacques Lemarchand, Alexandre Koyré, Éric Weil, Jean Chauveau, Georges Ambrosino, Georges Balandier, Théodore Fraenkel, Albert Ollivier, Maurice Blanchot, Aimé Patri, Jean Piel, Alexandre Kojève, etc.…

According to Ian D. Thatcher, "[T]he consensus is that he was one of the most significant scholars of 'Soviet' studies in its widest sense and beyond."

He was educated at King Alfred School in London and received a BSc in economics from the London School of Economics in 1936. The school later made him an Honorary Fellow in 1982. Nove served in the Royal Signal Corps from 1939 but was transferred to Military Intelligence until 1946, reaching the rank of Major. From 1947 to 1958, he worked in the Civil Service, mainly at the Board of Trade. He was a Reader in Russian Social and Economic Studies at the University of London from 1958 to 1963 and Professor of Economics at the University of Glasgow from 1963 to 1982. He was then Emeritus Professor and Honorary Senior Research Fellow at Glasgow until his death. In 1982, Nove was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh. His proposers were William Hugh Clifford Frend, Sydney Checkland, Thomas Wilson, George Wyllie, Sir Kenneth Alexander and Leslie Alcock. In 1951, Nove married Irene MacPherson, his second marriage.
