ARTAUD ANTONIN (1896-1948)
AUTHORIZED MANUSCRIPT with original PEN DRAWINGS, Anaïs, [circa 1933]| 1 page and a half in-4 (torn in half and gummed up).
Notes with three drawings on Antioch, for Heliogabale, or the Crowned Anarchist (1934).
Artaud sketches a love letter to Anaïs
NIN: "Anaïs. My love for you takes the form of a kind of chessboard, and this in the proper sense of the word, with an appropriate atmosphere"...
Notes on Antioch follow: "in Antioch, street, temples in abundance, on the porticoes, marbles, royal road, direction Sapolis, hill with gigantic rocks where temples are leaning against each other as in Athens.
There reigns a colossal head of Charon the nautonier of the underworld, intended to protect the city from the Plague. The most honoured god in the city is the Apollo of Daphne"...
Then follow some notes evoking the vegetation around the temple of Apollo, the statue of the god sculpted by Bryaxis, the caves, King Demetrius II Nicator, the Temple of Fortune...
Artaud drew some buildings in the margin.
Then he made a small list of the names of the Babylonian god "Baal Balthazar Baal-Samès
Béel-Samen sun god", who protects the king, the main Canaanite god. "He is found on Phoenician inscriptions. He was the epithet characterizing the domain of the god, his attributes as possessor of all domains [...].
He is the male principle, associated with Astharte.
Solar deity crowned by a diadem of rays when represented in human form", which he illustrates with two drawings of Baal crowned ... He ends with a few lines about Heliogabalus, his mother and grandmother...
