‎Copenhagen, A/S Regnecentralen, 1964. 8vo. In the original yellow printed wrappers. ""Gier Algol 3. Kurt E. Larsen"" written in hand to front wrapper. 67 pp. A bit of wear to extremities and a bit of soiling, internally clean.‎

‎First edition of the Gier Algol III manual, a users' manual of the Algol 60 compiler system. The Algol 60 programming language was exceedingly influential and innovative and gave rise to many other programming languages, such as BCPL, B, Pascal, Simula and C. It is stated on the title-page that this is the ""Second edition of A Manual of Gier Algol"", which means, not that this is a later printing/edition of the paper, but that it is the second version of Gier Algol, being the 3rd paper in the Algol series. ""Where Algol 58 was considered quite properly to be a draft, Algol 60 was appreciated, almost immediately, as a rounded work of art. It was to become a universal tool with which to view, study, and proffer solutions to almost every kind of problem in computation."" (Origins of Cyberspace 813).""The language was designed by a committee of American and European computer scientist to address some of the problems with Fortran programming language. It had significant influence on later programming language design. John Backus developed a method for describing the syntax of the Algol 58 programming language. This was revised and expanded by Peter Nauer for Algol 60 and the resulting approach is known as Backus Naur form."" (O'Regan, Gerard. A brief history of computing, 2008, 80 p.).The Gier Algol was developed by the leading Danish computer scientist at that time: Henning Christensen, Gunnar Ehrling, Jørn Jensen, Peter Kraft, Paul Lindgreen, Knuth-Sivert Skog, Peter Willemoes and Peter Nauer, the later being a pioneer in computer science and in 2005 he won the ACM A.M. Turing Award for his work on defining the ALGOL 60 programming language. The N in the BNF notation stands for Nauer. (Backus-Naur form).‎

‎"je leur souhaite toutes les voluptés depuis les plus hautes jusqu'aux plus grossières" Lettre autographe signée adressée à René Peter‎

‎s. l. mardi (25 octobre 1904) | 12.60 x 20.40 cm | 12 pages sur 3 bifeuillets‎

‎Lettre autographe signée de Marcel Proust,adressée à René Peter. Douze pages rédigées à l'encre noire sur troisbifeuillets de papier blanc bordé de noir. Déchirures aux extrémitéslelong des plis des bifeuillets, n'affectant pas le texte. Publiée dans Kolb, IV, n°168. Très longue lettre de Proust, pleine de sous-entendus, au dramaturge René Peter. Vantant le succès de ce dernier, Proust fait la sublime confession de sa propre vanité d'écrivain et de ses ambitions littéraires. Il laisse subtilement transparaître sa jalousie pour la maîtresse de Peter et déclare également sa dévotion absolue à Reynaldo Hahn. Il s'agit d'une des premières missives qu'il envoie à Peter, son ami d'enfance, après avoir récemment repris contact avec lui. * Proust, éternellement accablé de maux, reste reclus et s'excuse d'avoir manqué la répétition de la nouvelle pièce de Peter, Le Chiffon. La comédie en trois actes de Peter sur une musique de Reynaldo Hahn, créée à l'Athénée le mois suivant, connaîtra un franc succès et une soixantaine de représentations avant la fin de l'année. Le jeune Proust se remet à l'opinion dithyrambique de Hahn qui avait assisté aux répétitions, et lamissive se mue en une déclaration d'amour au compositeur et à son jugement impeccable : "Reynaldo m'a dit que votre pièce était délicieuse et ravissante, ce qui n'est pas tout à fait la même chose, qu'il y avait ri et pleuré comme il ne rit et pleure jamais au théâtre et que la langue était exquise. Cela j'en étais certain. Mais ne connaissant rien de vous, je ne pouvais savoir si vous aviez le génie dramatique. J'en suis certain maintenant car si je ne connais pas de juge aussi sévère, aussi ridiculement sévère que Reynaldo, je n'en connais pas non plus qui ait plus de goût. De sorte que sa sévérité habituelle, sa perspicacité foncière, donnent à son enthousiasme une valeur très grande à mes yeux". Dans un enchevêtrement caractéristique d'aveu et de déni, Proust cache à peine ses ambitions et sa quête de reconnaissance. Il appelle de tous ses vux les mêmes lauriers qu'il place sur la tête de Peter : «votre pauvre et charmante mère qui comme tous ceux qui aiment et qui ont vécu, la vie meurtrissant toutes nos tendresses, a tant souffert, assiste à ce grand bonheur, à ces premiers rayons de la gloire sur votre front charmant, que Vauvenargues dit plus doux que le soleil levant. Je n'en parle que par citation, ne les ayant jamais connus moi-même !» Il finira même par instiller sa vocation littéraire dans le parcours du narrateur de La Recherche, sa formation d'homme de lettres davantage marquée par les déceptions que par les «rayons de la gloire» tant attendus par Proust lui-même. Elle culmine cependant dans le Temps retrouvé par une épiphanie: le narrateur sait maintenant quoi écrire et, surtout, comment l'écrire. La lettre marque les débuts du trio Proust-Peter-Hahn dont la complicité était telle qu'ils formeront un vocabulaire spécial dont eux seuls avaient le secret. Le fleuve de mots de cette lettre illustre parfaitement cet indéniable lien entre désir et admiration intellectuelle : «Car je tiens aussi au succès, je suis extrêmement matériel dans mes vux pour ceux que j'aime et je leur souhaite toutes les voluptés depuis les plus hautes jusqu'aux plus grossières». Malgré ces démonstrations de générosité, l'écrivain ne peut cependant masquer une certaine jalousie envers Robert Danceny, fictif co-auteur du Chiffon qui n'était autre que la maîtresse de Peter, Mme Dansaërt. Proust lui fait élégamment mais explicitement référence : «Cela me rend heureux de penser que la charmante femme dont on m'assure que c'est elle qui se cache sous le nom masculin de votre collaborateur, sera de moitié dans votre uvre. Je ne dis pas de votre succès, car collaboratrice ou non, elle eût toujours par le cur partagé votre succès, ayant je crois pour vous une amitié profonde». Typique d'un Proust transposant ses désirs à travers la fiction, l'écrivain formera dans les ‎

‎Correspondance d’édition.‎

‎ 26 lettres et cartes postales manuscrites signées adressées à Michel Bulteau, écrites à l’encre violette entre octobre 1994 et avril 1998 sur papiers de couleurs : projets de traductions et publications en France, évocations littéraires, artistiques, pécuniaires, mélancoliques… Quelques extraits, 16-X-94 : « Dear Michel, I think you and I have very similar tastes in music, literature, art, decadence – and life itself. I shall send you some of my books. Is there anyone in French publishing who would be interested in my book about Lou Reed ‘Waiting for the Man’ – which Picador will publish here in November ? » 20-XI-94 : « I want to thank you so very much for the Baron Corvo books, your essay and the marvelously explicit Venetian letters. I feel we are already good friends, and I’m looking forward to the time when we can meet. (…) I don’t know if you could encourage Du Rocher to look at my very individual book about Rimbaud, and perhaps at my homocratic novel ‘Isidore’ which is about another of my heroes : Lautréamont, our legendary Ducasse. And by the way I love Corvo’s exotic style and eccentricities. We share very similar tastes in our pantheon of the stars. I find it so hard to exist from writing. I’m hugely prolific, and I make almost no money. It’s terrible. But we do it for love of the imagination and to proclaim the great, the bizarre, the beautiful. Thank you for being. With love and starlight, Jeremy. » 28-XII-94 : « Here is the gift of my Lou Reed book for you, how I wish we could find a French publisher for it, and that you could be the translator. End of the year blues. I always find Christmas/new year particularly melancholy, so much work done, sadness accumulated – but still there’s a brilliance attached to the moment, and I’m always working on new books, pushing the imagination beyond frontiers. I send you gold stars ». S. d. : « I would be so grateful if you would try Du Rocher with ‘Isidore’. It is an extraordinary beautiful and unusual novel, and I don’t think there are any other novels on Lautréamont. Life would have been so much easier for me if I had been born French, all my heroes are the anarchic French poets. The wild imagination, vibrant with images. » 1-II-95 : « I hope all is well with you. There are little tints of spring in the air, and I have pink hyacinths in my room. Their languid scent Is intoxicating. My book about Lou Reed is handled by agents. If they prove problematic, I would sell the book personally to a French publisher, so that you could translate it. I’m desperate for some money at present. Surely some French publisher would wish a book on Lou Reed. I’m currently writing a book about Marc Almond, called ‘The Last Star’. He’s my favorite torch singer. » 23-I-96 : « I’m working on a novel about Elvis Presley, ‘Heartbreak Hotel’, and I’ve also been performing and recording with David J, who used to be in ‘Bauhaus’. I will send you some tapes. Is there any new of ‘Isidore’ ? Peter Owen’s very disappointed not to have heard. Please do let him know. We should do a reading in Paris, you and I, at a venue where we could use our respective musicians. Let’s think about it. Much love and starlight, Jeremy. » 28-I-96 : « How I know that topology of hallucinated madness – it fuels both our works – but the suffering is huge. Buddhist chanting helps me through the intimate hells. I went through a terrible breakdown in 1990. As your work is close to Michaux’s, I imagine you suffer deeply. » 3-III-96 : « Wonderful to receive your letter, and I haven’t forgotten ‘Flowers’ (de Michel Bulteau, un livre consacré à Warhol). I’m going to work at finding a publisher for you here. An independent. We may be able to interest Peter Owen in your work. He likes you a lot, and is coming back to Paris in May. » 15-VI-97 : « I’m busy working on new poems, essays, fiction, etc. The usual galaxy of creative energies. And I’m sure you’re writing too, working the imagination towards apocalypse. » ‘Invention d’Isidore Ducasse’ est finalement paru aux Éditions de la Différence en 1996. On joint 9 lettres tapuscrites signées de l’éditeur anglais Peter Owen sur papiers à entête, contemporaines à ces projets de publications. 5-IV-95 : « Jeremy Reed has advised me of your interest in ‘Isidore’ and that your publishers La Difference want to buy it. I am awfully pleased that you wish to take on this exceptional author. » Puis, 12-IX-96 : « Sorry we missed – I got your message that you could be late but I wonder if you went to the La Nouvelle Agence office ? Anyhow, I am sorry I missed you. La Difference have not paid the advance. Jeremy is upset. Mary and I are very annoyed. They are, of course, illegal if they try to publish without the advance. Could you explain this to them and of course, if they do not pay none of us will ever want to deal with them again. The whole thing is very bad publishing practice and it has gone on so long ! Thank you for your help. Sincerely, Peter Owen. » Bon état. ‎

‎First (only?) edition of mathematician Megerlin's work that combines mathematics, history, and theology to create a detailed historical and chronological analysis of divine governance from the creation of the world up to the second half of the 17th century. It is structured around the cycles of significant astronomical events, specifically the conjunctions and oppositions of Saturn and Jupiter, which recur approximately every 800 years. Peter Megerlin (1623–1686) was a German scholar and professor at the University of Basel. He was a theologian and mathematician and his work often reflected an interest in the intersection of these fields, of which this present work if a fine example. Megerlin famously tought Jacob Bernoulli, who later opposed his astrological interpretations of comet appearances. The work is of the utmost scarcity and we have only been able to trace one previous copy in the trade.‎
