Candide

New York, The Literary Guild , 1929. Cloth. Voltaire's scandalous tale of 'Candide' with the illustrations by Rockwell Kent, first edition thus. A picaresque satire by Voltaire, considered his magnum opus. Candide was both a great success and great scandal; It was immediately banned after its original secret publication in 1759 due to it containing religious blasphemy, political sedition, and intellectual hostility. Today, it is praised for its sharp wit and insightful portrayal of the human condition.This edition is illustrated in text by American painter Rockwell Kent, a resetting of the limited Random House edition. Complete with unclipped dust wrapper. In the original publisher's full cloth binding. Externally very smart with minor shelf wear only, light bumping and fading to head and tail of spine. Dust wrapper unclipped and generally smart with minor shelf wear, chipped to head and tail of spine and extremities, age toning to wraps and spine, minor loss and chipping to rear wrap, tape repaired internally to wraps, visible to externals. Internally, firmly bound. Pages bright and clean. Very Good Indeed . Ill.: Rockwell Kent. Very Good Indeed/Good.

VOLTAIRE (François-Marie AROUET, dit) - PRUVOST (Jack ou Paul, ill. de).

Candide.

S.l. Kra / Coll. ''Poivre et sel'', (1928). Un vol. au format gd in-8 (213 x 164 mm) de 225 pp. broché, sous couverture à rabats rempliés. Un des exemplaires numérotés du tirage sur vélin de Rives (seul papier). Il s'agrémente - ici en premier tirage - de savoureuses compositions en couleurs de Jack Pruvost. ''Natif de Merville, il a illustré Candide de Voltaire''. (in Bénézit). Oeuvre ironique dès les premières lignes, volontiers sarcastique à l'égard le conservatisme social de la noblesse arrogante, elle s'avère annonciatrice du Figaro de Beaumarchais. Mais Candide est également un récit de formation, narrant le voyage qui transformera son héros éponyme en philosophe. En somme, un Télémaque d'un genre nouveau.. Mahé, Répertoire des éditions de luxe, p. 199 - Bénézit VIII, Dictionnaire des peintres, p. 514. Plats présentant un éclat légèrement altéré. Marques brunes en tête et queue du dos ; lequel est en outre légèrement ridé. Rares et discrètes rousseurs dans le texte. Un feuillet légèrement effrangé. Du reste, belle condition. Exemplaire non coupé.
