Detroyat, Leonce - Set of 3 Autograph Letters Signed 1868

Item #: K3936-C6D


French journalist (1829-1898), librettist, and navy officer.

Collection of three autograph letters in French (untranslated) signed by him, dated 1868, addressed to the literary critic Paul de Saint-Victor (1827-1881), concerning "...une pièce en trois actes, muté de Caldéron (1625)..." be performed at the Théâtre du Vaudeville.

We report an extract as a sample. 13 février 1868:  "...Le directeur du Vaudeville [Gustave Harmant] m'a accueilli fort bien je le déclare, mais comme un auteur présentant sa marchandise. (...) Toutefois, j'ai confiance dans mon oeuvre... Elle n'est pas ordinaire .... Elle sort des lieux commun dont on le nourrit aujourd'hui...". On the 28th February, Détroyat writes to Saint-Victor: "...Je viens de voir, par hasard, Mr. Harmant et nous avons causé ensemble de ma pièce. (...) Tout d'abord, m'a-t-il dit, le sujet l'effroie. Il pense que mettre en scène aujourd'hui des sentiments qu'ont 80 ans de date est la presque certitude d'un insuccès...". 

Different sizes and lengths (for a total of six written pages), in very good condition or better (see scans provided).
