"The idea of illustrating these texts had been suggested by the Bibliophile Jacob, Paul Lacroix, who had been commissioned by Balzac's widow for the philological revision of the text. The illustrations fall within a caricatural and 'droll' vein; they reveal Gustave Doré's immense talent, his attraction to landscape and his ease in portraying grotesque characters as well as in capturing burlesque scenes. 'This illustration is like no other in its powerful originality: it is Gaulish, Rabelaisian, and sparkling with wit. Doré certainly lavished the best of his talent on the Contes drolatiques. They had no success however and the entire edition was marked down. Today, it is one of Doré's most sought-after works" (Leblanc).

In this work on the Carthusians, the author refutes some detractors of monastic life, particularly that of the Carthusians.

Beautiful and rare copy with a modification of the date of the performance originally scheduled for February 6th.
These dances were performed by Dara Manda, Souka Hati, Carola Perrier, Little Jeanine, Charrat and the dancer Tranki.
Raymond Duncan, brother of the famous dancer Isadora Duncan, installed in 1911 in Paris an academy on the model of Plato: "Raymond Duncan was fascinated by ancient Greece since childhood: the aesthetics and the way of life that he promoted to the Akademia were imbued with this influence. The press of the time glossed over the clothes worn by Raymond Duncan and his followers: "Greek-style" tunics that he / she made themselves. Behind the supposed ridiculousness of this accoutrement, these unisex tunics were a way of abolishing the differences of sexes and social classes. Raymond Duncan would have adopted this outfit after his coachman was denied access to a beach because of his livery that betrayed his social status. The life of the Akademia was organized around many activities: dance, music, weaving, gymnastics, crafts, spinning, Orphic singing, Greek language and philosophy. These courses included outside students - who paid according to their abilities - and members of the community living within its walls for a few days, months or years. Housed and nurtured - according to the vegetarian diet promoted by Duncan - the latter, in return, participated in the community economy by making sandals, spinning wool, weaving tunics on primitive crafts. These artefacts were then sold - at high prices - in the Akademia shop located rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré. (Journal of the Akademia exhibition : Performing Life at Villa Vassilieff, 2018)
