Chat Monday Philippe Gandillet: Men, Gods and church books


I come from the ceremony where I accompanied Caesars Frederick. No interpellation to the Minister of Culture, for once! He was amazed and even very sorry, for if a Minister of Culture is not challenged to Caesar, is it really minister?

The ceremony saw the consecration film by Xavier Beauvois' Men and gods ", tracing the life of monks Tibhirine. An opportunity for believers to promote faith and calmed for booksellers to sell books to church ...


So to answer the likely influx of customers at the shop of Peter, this week, I present to you a book that will satisfy those who want to surf fashion "Catholic" that are sure to follow all the celebrities of the ecological-worldly elite tiersmondiste ... "I think brothers. The strength of the filmmaker is to highlight the word intelligence of these men and their sacrifice ," explained the director, who then passed into the realm of politics. This thought reminded me of a passage I had just read in the book that I present and which have influenced the choice of these monks :

"If God calls you to dignity, obey, he will give you the graces necessary to carry the burden it has placed on your shoulders. Look eagerly to suffer for Jesus Christ, to be humiliated like him is an honor that you can run boldly! It is an honor that Jesus gave to St. John, his favorite, make him drink the cup of his passion when he had drunk himself. "


And that's what happened to our apostle John : Crowned with the power to perform miracles, the Emperor Domitian, called him to Rome and plunges into a vat of oil boiling. This turned into a refreshing bath, by some miracle, I do not know ... This punishment took place near the door leading to the Lazio since called Porta Latina. It also why St. Jean Porte Latin is the name of a feast of the Church celebrated in honor of Saint John Apostle and Evangelist. John ended his earthly life in Ephesus where he devoted himself to writing his gospel, you know.


Originally patron saint of winegrowers and coopers, St. John became patron of bayberry, printers and typesetters. The booksellers to share with the St. Lawrence. For the latter, the explanations are numerous: The Latin Gate was perhaps, with its two wings, the shape of a book printers use inks fat, hence the reference to oil, and finally, St. John wrote important works such as his Gospel and the Apocalypse. For the winemakers and coopers , the explanation comes from a pun in French: Saint John is the tine. The tine means a tank like that, filled with oil, which precipitated. In fact, St. John is often depicted wearing a barrel, sometimes large, sometimes small and with a handle, which makes him look like a mallet, which is also the tool of the cooper. But I digress ...


The book I chose to the shelves of the library is a book of hours , a secular breviary to somehow ... You will find, in addition to prayers for times of day, topics such as meditation presented in this talk, a few prayers, the Ordinary of the Mass, two offices and a few anthems ... So a collection essential to the faithful and under handy pocket size for a steady grip in the daytime. The bibliophiles who want to join the useful and pleasant appreciate binding flattering and elegant lace dishes. One detail: If you are lucky you named him "Josephine" this book is for you. If you call "Delorme" is a sign of providence ... Yours truly. Philippe Gandillet.

is information relayed by Rene of BLC, which gave me the idea to ask him a ticket . We light a bulb, the light flashed and we do not marvel at this little miracle! I'm not saying that we should make a "Ohhhhhhhhhh !!!!......" every time you turn a switch but a little pout of gratitude would be welcomed.


long time, incandescent lamps use a carbon filament. Known for their longevity, some were still in service in the Paris Metro in the late 1950s. Thus, since 1901 the ceiling of the fire station in Livermore (California), shines a light bulb without interruption, the Centennial Bulb, now filmed by webcam permanently, with the first two already, meanwhile, fell down ...

planned obsolescence:

refrigerator which fails after a few years of operation, the automobile that begins to transform into oxide iron in the first kilometers, the bulb whose economic life of 10,000 hours advertised shall be reduced by half if not more, are all part of a program due to obsolescence.

programmed obsolescence
This is also not just based on technical failures but also on psychological deficiencies users: The TV still works fine but can not receive DTT , which can restore the 3D images is on the way to the dump where it will be accompanied by the latest notebook which it lacks the potato peeler and the motorized juicer. Do not talk about computers with the speed and memory capacity are increasing programs to digest more and more bloated and animated ads that pollute, ad nauseum, most websites. (And then, Peter, where are your ads?)


One of the first objects of daily use to having been the victim of a Death Foretold was apparently there the incandescent bulb. After much trial and error at the end of XIX century the carbon filament bulbs had achieved a longevity many hopes.


The modern book Is he also a victim of this race for consumption imposed? We can only say yes when you consider the speed with which the book of great production loses its leaves without waiting for the fall! The authors themselves consume and burn rapidly. What role eBook Will he play in this depressing situation? And, to quote the posters of Peter here, what place will be reserved for the bookseller, in the future? This little note is not innocent as it will allow our Book of Tarascon showcase, in a light eco-friendly, one of his precious books on science and Electricity, in particular ;-))

A experience that was suggested to me by Bernard on a light bulb filament Carbon

When approaching a magnet, the filament is driven by a tremor at 50 Hz I dare not approach the magnet too close to the filament as it begins to vibrate so hard that I fear it will not break! O spirits of famous men , Oersted, Ampere, Faraday, ... To vibrate the mention of your name by the experimenters the twenty-first century, contemporary vestiges of the dinosaurs. Rene

Built for Jean Du Faou, chamberlain of King Louis XI, chief butler and chief bailiff of Touraine, this castle has served as a quarry to the peasants of the village. Therefore, only remaining vestiges of a tower which served as a stairwell in the middle of the facade, an entrance to Gothic ornaments and semicircular and the gable of the original building, equipped with a turret corner cul-de-lamp. Castle Rustéphan gave rise to legends that inspired Hersart La Villemarqué for the ride of Jenovefa Rustéfan in Barzaz-Breiz.

Sense fellowship

I do not remember that, the only Arab country that I know a little, they called me one day " my son." The old men of Cafe Riche in Cairo, who had read Baudelaire, and perhaps also Montesquieu, greeted me in French, calling me "sir".

But everywhere I have been welcomed as a brother.

This fraternity there, which I accepted, I hope never to be forgotten.

As proof, perhaps, that anger me takes to read some statements ...

But this is not a ticket.

The drama of succession: folio edition of the works of JJ Rousseau in Gabriel Dufour editor.


Sometimes I see things heartbreaking when library shares

family ... Therefore, I urge the bibliophiles to care books that have delighted after their disappearance! The term " After me, flies !" one side has " j'm'enfoutiste " which irritates me.

I admit that we should die , I accept also that one can completely botch his "last words" and not let the image of the writer's great that one would expect of posterity, I admit that we can discover under the most beautiful morocco with the arms of your shelves, the full collection of Playboy, I admit that you lack discipline in your choice of books and in consequence, there is no consistency in your library, I admit that having never share your passion with your wife or your children, they can be indifferent to the value of your books, I admit also that, believing in reincarnation, You will enjoy the idea you can buy your books for a pittance, but I do not accept that one is not interested in its knowingly become books to its demise!


If I issue this brief and unusual protest, because the two books that I'll introduce you to the sale today (which I want to buy?) Are the result of an idiot sharing. Think about it! Two handsome folio of Rousseau, each incomplete one volume, because of shared indifferent to literature following a lack of logic in the most obvious. Rousseau: Confessions. Volume I / Rousseau: Emile. Volume II


I imagine the conversation between brother and sister (you can change the script at will by increasing the siblings):

- Well, we share an equal amount?
- Okay, but do not be jealous, you take a book of each?
- Okay. Rousseau is not a swimmer?
- J'chai not. There have been asking Dad ...

This kind of misadventure would never happen with € 50 notes that it would cut in half. I propose So leave it in your desk drawer, the testament of your books the form of a few simple guidelines.

- It does not separate a collection
- It gets help from a friend or expert bibliophile if we hesitate

The works that I present are beautiful because high margin, printed paper in a beautiful and well connected but doom attached to this issue right out of the presses. Imagine! Not a single engraving is present in both sheets, although their number and their quality is acknowledged in the preamble. We can not even blame any "bucker folio" to be reached. No tear or irregularity in the binder are there to explain. This edition was subsequently connected without his illustrations, that's all!


So why try to separate myself from the inseparable, you say? An incomplete book its text and its carvings of little value ... To make you think about the future of your library, perhaps? For you to tell me what period of his life, he must worry, it's good ... I do dream a little, saying that these two folio are the "holy grail" of a bibliophile who owned the little brother and sister. I have a dream ... Pierre

Cardinal de Bernis. Writer, diplomat and clergyman ...


I'm pretty tight with the subtleties of language and diplomacy in general ... So to Jean-Pierre, faithful reader of the blog, which I know elegance of mind, I asked to introduce the works of a character in the eighteenth century, no less distinguished than himself

"I managed to get everything I just desired but fortune has always played his favor. We had to pull him ... "

On 3 November 1794 after the fall of Robespierre, died in Rome at the palace Carolis, François Joachim de Pierre de Bernis , between Ardèche and Rhône born May 22, 1715 shortly before Louis XIV turned off.


Cardinal de Bernis - since this is her - embodies the man of the eighteenth century, the spirit always on the alert and whose careerism bubbling dons a stunning talented seducer: Essentially, a sort of human equivalent to champagne ...

Referred the seminar, the descendant of ancient nobility penniless decides to pass through his literary talent and women. That it first opens the doors of the Parisian salons of the French Academy , then those of the boudoir of Madame de Pompadour, which will be both the agent and advisor, he attended Voltaire that the saddled with the nickname "the flower Babet," and this continued intellectual complicity, at least as correspondence between them until the death of the philosopher of Ferney,


Sent as ambassador to Venice where he befriends Casanova (up to share the same mistress), he acquired the experience which he will testify as all-powerful minister in the labyrinth of diplomatic European wars during the 1750s. Victim of royal disgrace, he began a second career in the Church (conversion classic fifties ...) Here Cardinal, Archbishop and Ambassador to the Pope in Rome for twenty-five years. He plays the role of a host and a sumptuous lucid observer of the Old Regime ended, serving as a mentor to all the diplomats who will shape the map the new Europe.


Witness concerned about the Revolution , though rejected by the new government, he did everything he could to prevent a fatal rupture between France and the Papacy. True to what he was, he greeted many exiles in Rome and supported himself until his death in the subsistence of the daughters of Louis XV ladies. The real dimension of existence of this man - certainly too much forgotten today - was that of an amiable ambitious got his way without hurting or propriety, or anyone. An honest man ...

"I've never done anything to deserve but I have done nothing to demerit. (Bernis at Brienne)

"For a man who wants to think well and with elevation, there are only two things in this world: the reputation and the rest ... Bernis, Memoires
