Description
MAURIAC François (1885-1970). French writer. Nobel Prize for Literature in 1952.
autograph manuscript. '' Promenade d'un dimanche à Port-Royal '', S.l.n.d.., 4 pp in-4. -Corrections.
A text in which he evokes the former Jansenist abbey of Port-Royal des Champs, in its heyday of Pascal and Racine, which for a time became a hotbed of protest against the religious absolutism of Louis XIV, who had it destroyed, reducing it to ''a desert of violated tombs and ruins'', now a place for a banal Sunday stroll.
