Dust jacket notes: "The Societe Anonyme, founded in 1920 by Katherine Dreier, Marcel Duchamp, and Man Ray, was responsible for introducing contemporary European art to the American public. In its first decade, the Societe organized over fifty exhibitions, including the first one-artist shows in this country given to Archipenko, Kandinsky, Klee, Leger, and Villon. Through its exhibitions, lectures, and publications, the Societe hoped to show the public that there were both social and spiritual benefits to be derived from progressive modern art. Donated to Yale University in 1941, the collection of the Societe Anonyme was augmented by Dreier during the last years of her life and by works from her estate upon her death in 1952. The combined collection boasts works by 180 artists and rivals the most important public collections of modern art in America. Its particular flavor owes to its having been formed by artists rather than by collectors. Thus, in addition to substantial holdings of famous artists such as Duchamp, Kandinsky, Klee, Leger, Lissitzky, Mondrian, Man Ray, Schwitters, Stella, and Villon, one finds works by less well-known artists of unusual interest and growing reputation, such as Bruce, Buchheister, Carlsund, Covert, and Duchamp-Villon. This generously illustrated catalogue raisonne provides the only thorough history of the Societe Anonyme and for the first time documents and reproduces the entire collection and associated works from the Dreier estate - a total of 1020 items. The catalogue includes a short biography of each artist and a complete bibliography and exhibition history for each work. Most works are accompanied by interpretive essays incorporating new ideas and information, and often by Duchamp's original texts, never before fully published. This handsome volume is thus of both intrinsic and historical importance, an essential resource to anyone interested in the history of modern art in America...."

"La Société féodale a cinquante ans. Une génération nouvelle d'historiens de la société, des réactions mentales et de l'économie, qui n'a cure des grands anciens, laboure le champ délimité par Bloch. Certes le domaine aujourd'hui est plus vaste, mieux connu, plus ouvert. Mais La Société féodale en reste le noyau, la source de tant de recherches qui plongent en elle leurs racines et qui, souvent, l'avouent. L'art de la perspective, la justesse du mot, le charme du style, le sens de l'image l'ont préservée des rides. C'est à cela que se reconnaît le chef-d'oeuvre."

This is the story of one of the world's great philharmonic societies, told by a distinguished conductor and writer whose command of the subject is nothing short of virtuosic. Established in 1828 with roots stretching back to the 1790s, the Société des Concerts du Conservatoire reflected and in many ways encapsulated the development of French culture, and of Western music, in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. D. Kern Holoman describes how in the 1820s and 1830s the potent forces of democracy, exclusivity, and revolutionary fervor that collided in and around the Conservatoire forged and then tempered an organization as flexible as it was strong. In elegant and spirited prose, accompanied by illustrations and a website with copious further documentation, Holoman chronicles the life of the Société, from its day-to-day operations to its role in creating the canon of orchestral concert music in our culture. A testament to the Société's power and importance, his book is itself a significant contribution to the history of Western music.

Format in-8°( 16x24 cm )( 704 gr ). -------- 526 pages. ******* "" En 1626, les Français participent à la colonisation officielle de Saint-Christophe. En 1635, ils s'installent à la Guadeloupe et à la Martinique. En 1664, ils implantent la cuture du "pétun", qui se fait principalement avec des engagés ; celle-ci cède la place à la canne à sucre, avec le recours massif aux esclaves importés d'Afrique. Parallèlement, l'emprise du pouvoir royal se précise ; de plus une génération de créoles blancs va jouer un rôle essentiel dans le peuplement. "" ************
