PONGE FRANCIS (1899-1988)
2 autograph MANUSCRITS, La Mounine or Note après coup sur un ciel de Provence, 1941| 2 notebooks in-4 bound of 45 and 20 pages| plus 3 L.A.S. "Francis Ponge", 1978-1979, to Lionel Salem (5 pages various sizes, 2 envelopes)| all in blue cloth slipcase, title on the back.
Precious meeting of the notebooks of first draft and of setting in net of this very beautiful poetic text, which allows to enter the workshop of creation of the poet.
The Mounine was collected in La Rage de l'expression (Lausanne, Mermod, 1952)| it closes the collection. In the "Note of July 11, 1979" addressed to Lionel Salem, Francis Ponge retraced the genesis of this text. During a trip to Aix-en-Provence to visit his aunt, he experienced an "emotional shock" when he suddenly saw the sky of Provence darken in broad daylight. The Mounine is entirely devoted to trying to retranscribe and analyze this phenomenon and the sensations it provoked in him. Alternating prose, verse, lyrical passages and reflections, Francis Ponge, from May to August 1941, will note in this notebook - which is a kind of poetic diary - the texts that this experience has given rise to. Around several strong images, the petals of violet, the octopus and its ink, the ashes, to which he returns unceasingly in infinite and splendid variations, he will not articulate a poem, but offer to the reader the workshop even of the poetic creation. Indeed, La Mounine does not expose the final result, rid of its dross and trial and error, but the process of elaboration. We thus see the same poem repeated many times, with each time insensitive variations, in prose or in the form of verse.
Notebook of first draft, titled on the cover in black ink: "Notes afterwards on a landscape of Provence", and added below, in blue pencil: "or La Mounine". Notebook of size 22 x 17,5 cm with a grey-blue cover bearing the title| one added later, in black ink, at the top the title of the collection La Rage de l'expression, and at the bottom the name of the publisher Mermod. On the back cover, an autograph note: "This notebook constitutes the original manuscript for this text, which was inscribed there as it was conceived. F. P." The notebook has 30 sheets of lined paper paginated from 1 to 38, with an autograph letter glued on the p.[39], plus 3 loose sheets coming from another notebook (4 autograph pages and one with typing glued on) and a draft of an autograph letter glued on the 3rd p. of the cover. It is written in black or blue ink (and a small passage in pencil), first on the front of the sheets only, until page 22 (the versos not being paginated), the continuation on both sides. One counts 120 passages or words crossed out, corrected or added, and numerous variants with the definitive text At the head of page 1, Ponge noted: "Notebook opened in Roanne on May 3, 1941"| follows the title: Notes afterwards of a trip to Marseilles and Aix on April 27 and 28, 1941, and the beginning of the text: "It was only daylight in Martigues"... (p. 1-2)| Night of May 10 to 11: "Decidedly the most important thing of this trip was this fleeting vision of the countryside at the place called "Les Trois Pigeons" or "la Mounine" during the bus ride from Marseille to Aix"...

(p. 18)| Notes afterwards on a sky of Provence: "What octopus receding in the sky of Provence caused this tragic inking of the situation? "(p. 19-21)| 12/7/41 Notes afterwards on a sky of Provence: "Is the most fluid of the style inks really the blue-black one?"... (p. 22)| 13/7/41 La Mounine: "Au lieu dit la Mounine entre Marseille et Aix un matin d'avril"... (p. 23, pasted text)| 14/7/41 La Mounine: "Au lieu dit la Mounine auprès d'Aix en Provence un petit matin"... (p. 24, 4 pieces pasted)| 19/7/41 Note (motion) of order about the Sky of Provence: "It is a question of describing well this sky such as it appeared to me and impressed me so deeply"...
