A propos de cet article

Onzieme Mille. Two Volumes (complete). Octavo. Volume I: Frontispiece-Portrait, 401 pages. / Volume II: 591 pages. Hardcover / Beautiful, blindstamped cloth with gilt lettering on spine. Excellent condition with only minor signs of wear. Inscribed by a family-member to Marie Cohn (Marie Helene Johanna Weber (Meyer-Cohn) 1887-1967), daughter of Berlin Banker Dr.Heinrich Cohn, on her birthday in 1898 (1887-1967). Marie Cohn has later added her own name to the books and dated her personal enry to 27.II.1898. Marie Cohn (1887-1967) was the eldest daughter of Dr. Heinrich Cohn, director of a private Berlin bank founded by one of the most established Jewish families, the Meyer-Cohns, in Berlin.

She lived and worked in Paris, and died at the age of 25. From approximately the age of 13, Bashkirtseff kept a journal, and it is probably for this that she is most famous today. It has been called "a strikingly modern psychological self-portrait of a young, gifted mind", and her urgent prose, which occasionally breaks out into dialogue, remains extremely readable. She was multilingual and despite her self-involvement, was a keen observer with an acute ear for hypocrisy, so that her journal also offers a near-novelistic account of the late nineteenth century European bourgeoisie. A consistent theme throughout her journal is her deep desire to achieve fame, inflected by her increasing fear that her intermittent illnesses might turn out to be tuberculosis. In a prefatory section written toward the end of her life, in which she recounts her family history, she writes, "If I do not die young I hope to live as great artist; but if I die young, I intend to have my journal, which cannot fail to be interesting, published." Similarly: "When I am dead, my life, which appears to me a remarkable one, will be read. (The only thing wanting is that it should have been different)." In effect, the first half of Bashkirtseff's journal is a coming-of-age story while the second is an account of heroic suffering. (Wikipedia).…
