Paris: Librairie Vanier, Date: 1886 ¶ FIRST EDITION of Verlaine's biographical sketch of Barbey d'Aurevilly, novelist and critic, the author of Les diaboliques (1874) and other light classics. Verlaine's essay is enlivened here by a wonderful full-page caricature of Barbey striking an imperious pose as he jabs his palm with his own pen, perhaps a hint of his extreme Catholicism. His foppish boots sprout needlelike spurs; and the names of his books spill out from a tipped bottle of 'encre du lion'. (The latter recalls the use of the word 'lion' in French as near-synonym for the word 'dandy', eg in Baudelaire "Le peintre de la vie moderne" ix: "Que ces hommes se fassent nommer raffinés, incroyables, beaux, lions ou dandies, tous sont issus d'une même origine".

(Series: Les hommes d'aujourd'hui, no. 282.) ¶ It was Barbey, incidentally, who first pointed out that Byron's "Don Juan" was "essentially dandyesque in tone", and suggested that one of its muses might have been Beau Brummell: This led Tim Burnett, in turn, to conclude that Byron's muse was in fact Scrope Davies, whose copy of Don Juan was recently discovered by this firm. ¶ SCARCE: "On aurait grand peine à se procurer, de nos jours, le numéro 282 de cette série".
