‎Signed typed letter about his novel Continental Drift ‎

‎Russell BANKS (1940-2023) American writer of fiction and poetry Signed typed letter, signed by Russel Banks, 11 lines, to French autograph collector Gérard Léman + autograph envelope postmarked 30 OCT 2020 — Russell Banks / 14 Victoria Lane, Sarasota Springs, NYY 12866. American writer of fiction and poetry, Russell Banks, member of the International Parliament of Writers and a member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters, thanks Gérard Léman, French autograph collector about his "kind letter" : "I am grateful for your loyalty to my work" and send him a quotation from his famous novel Continental Drift : "Good cheer and mournfulness over lives other than our own, even wholly invented lives — no, especially wholly invented lives — deprive the world as it is of some of the greed it needs to continue to be itself. Sabotage and subversion, then, are this book's objectives. Go, my book, and help destroy the world as it is." Continental Drift is a 1985 novel by Russell Banks. Set in the early 1980s, it follows two plots, through which Banks explores the relationship between apparently distant people drawn together in the world under globalization, which Banks compares to the geologic phenomenon of continental drift. The first plot features Bob DuBois, a working class New Englander who heads to Florida in the hopes of striking it rich; the second plot traces the journey of Vanise Dorsinville from Haiti to Florida. It is an avowedly political work, whose stated aim is to "destroy the world as it is." Despite its scope, it is according to critic Michiko Kakutani "somehow, acutely personal. The book sold well (15,000 copies in hard cover, 100,000 in paperback) and was highly acclaimed by critics. After publishing Continental Drift, Banks won the Dos Passos Prize for Literature in 1986. Russell Earl Banks was born in Newton, Massachusetts, on March 28, 1940, and grew up "in relative poverty." He is the son of Florence, a homemaker, and Earl Banks, a plumber, and was raised in Barnstead, New Hampshire. His father deserted the family when Banks was aged 12. While he was awarded a scholarship to attend Colgate University, he dropped out six weeks into university and travelled south instead, with the "intention of joining Fidel Castro's insurgent army in Cuba, but wound up working in a department store in Lakeland, Florida". He married Darlene Bennett, who was working as a sales clerk at the time; they had one daughter and later divorced. According to an interview with The Independent, he started to write when he was living in Miami in the late-1950s, though an interview with The Paris Review dates this to Banks's subsequent spell living in Boston. He moved back to New England in 1964 and then to North Carolina, where he attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, funded by the family of his second wife, Mary Gunst. In Chapel Hill, Banks was involved in Students for a Democratic Society and protest during the Civil Rights Movement. In 1976, he was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship. Banks divorced Mary Gunst in 1977 after 14 years of marriage. They had three daughters. He was subsequently married to Kathy Walton, an editor at Harper & Row, from 1982 to 1988. The following year, he married poet Chase Twichell. Banks was the 1985 recipient of the John Dos Passos Prize for fiction. Continental Drift and Cloudsplitter were finalists for the 1986 and 1999 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction respectively. Banks was elected a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1996. In popular culture, Banks was briefly mentioned in philosopher Richard Rorty's 1996 future history essay "Fraternity Reigns" in The New York Times Magazine as having written the fictional book Trampling the Vineyards, described as "samizdat", in 2021. Banks lived in upstate New York and Miami. He was a New York State Author for 2004–2006. He was also Artist-in-Residence at the University of Maryland. He taught creative writing at Princeton University. Banks died from cancer at his home in Saratoga Springs, New York, on January 7, 2023, at the age of 82. His work has been translated into twenty languages and has received numerous international prizes and awards. He wrote fiction, and, later, non-fiction, with Dreaming up America. His main works include the novels Continental Drift, Rule of the Bone, Cloudsplitter, The Sweet Hereafter, and Affliction. The latter two novels were each made into feature films in 1997 (see The Sweet Hereafter and Affliction). Many of Banks's works reflect his working-class upbringing. His stories often show people facing tragedy and downturns in everyday life, expressing sadness and self-doubt, but also showing resilience and strength in the face of their difficulties. Banks also wrote short stories, some of which appear in the collection The Angel on the Roof, as well as poetry. Banks also lived in Jamaica. Interviewed in 1998 for The Paris Review, he stated that : "After living in Jamaica and writing The Book of Jamaica, I accepted that I was obliged, for example, to have African-American friends. I was obliged to address, deliberately, the overlapping social and racial contexts of my life. I'm a white man in a white-dominated, racialized society, therefore, if I want to I can live my whole life in a racial fantasy. Most white Americans do just that. Because we can. In a color-defined society we are invited to think that white is not a color. We are invited to fantasize, and we act accordingly." The themes of Continental Drift (1985) include globalization and unrest in Haiti. His 2004 novel The Darling is largely set in Liberia and deals with the racial and political experience of the white American narrator. Writing in the Journal of American Studies, Anthony Hutchison argues that, "[a]side from William Faulkner it is difficult to think of a white twentieth-century American writer who has negotiated the issue of race in as sustained, unflinching and intelligent a fashion as Russell Banks". In 2023, it was confirmed that Paul Schrader would write and direct Oh, Canada, an adaptation of Banks' novel, Foregone, starring Richard Gere and Jacob Elordi. Beautiful piece of American Literature history.‎

I don't believe there is a "best" in literature or art, so I would decline the offer." The 2019 Nobel Prize in Literature was awarded to the Austrian writer Peter Handke (born 1942) "for an influential work that with linguistic ingenuity has explored the periphery and the specificity of human experience." The prize was announced by the Swedish Academy on 10 October 2019. Russell Earl Banks was born in Newton, Massachusetts, on March 28, 1940, and grew up "in relative poverty."

‎À Paris, Chez Cuchet, 1789, in-8, XXVIII-292 pp, Broché, couverture d'attente de l'époque, ?Première édition française, traduite sur l'originale anglaise de 1788 (The Question of Wool truly stated). L'ouvrage se constitue de lettres et communications échangées entre l'agronome réformateur Arthur Young (1741-1820) et le botaniste Joseph Banks (1743-1820), président de la société royale de Londres de 1778 à 1820, ainsi que plusieurs grands propriétaires anglais. Ce recueil forme un pamphlet contre le projet de loi visant à renforcer l'interdiction de l'exportation de la laine, le Wool Bill : au début de l'année 1788, les producteurs de laine de Suffolk avaient demandé à Young de soutenir leur pétition au Parlement. Young s'associa avec Banks, député de Lincoln, et témoigna devant les deux chambres du Parlement. La loi fut néanmoins adoptée et les partisans de Young à Norwich le brûlèrent en effigie.

‎La première circumnavigation française, complétée ici de son supplément Troisième édition (l'originale en 1 vol. in-4° parut un an plus tôt, la seconde en 3 vol. in-12° la même année que la présente) du récit de voyage de Louis Antoine de Bougainville, premier navigateur français à avoir officiellement fait le tour du monde. Contrairement aux deux précédentes, celle-ci n'est pas illustrée. Elle est augmentée d'une explication des termes de marine utilisés dans l'ouvrage. Elle est ici complétée, chose rare, du supplément, dans sa « troisième édition », augmentée d'après le titre par rapport à celles de 1772 (Paris : Nyon et Saillant et sa mise en vente sous la forme d'une édition séparée, suppimant au titre la mention : « Supplément au voyage de M. de Bougainville ; ». Il s'agit d'une traduction du journal de voyage des naturaliste Joseph Banks (1743-1820) et Daniel Solander (1733-1782), qui accompagnèrent James Cook lors de sa circumnavigation de 1768-1771, et en ramenèrent de très importantes collections botaniques, zoologiques et ethnographiques. Un vocabulaire de l'île O'tahiti occupe notamment les pages 162-168. S'y trouvent également une lettre de Philibert Commerson (1727-1773) explorateur et naturaliste français ayant accompagné Bougainville, une lettre de M. le B. de G. à M. de F. portant sur la possibilité de relier les océans Atlantiques et Pacifique par le passage du Nord, ainsi que des observations de M. de La Condamine (1701-1774), explorateur, scientifique et encyclopédiste, sur Ahutoru, jeune habitant de l'ile de Tahiti que M. Bougainville ramena avec lui de son expédition. Louis-Antoine de Bougainville (1729-1811) dressa le récit de ce périple ayant duré trois ans, de 1766 à 1769, dans ce Voyage autour du monde. L'ouvrage connut un immense succès à travers toute l'Europe des Lumières, inspirant à Diderot son célèbre Supplément au Voyage de Bougainville et contribuant à donner naissance au mythe du bon sauvage. Il marqua surtout les esprits par sa description d'une société polynésienne paradisiaque dont les habitants vivent quasiment à l'état de nature, s'adonnant uniquement aux plaisirs. L'ouvrage présente des dizaines d'annotations marginales qui consistent à 99% en repères chronologiques (mois suivi de l'année). Les quelques mots ou phrases sont directement repris du texte. Elles sont donc purement pratiques. Provenance : Frédéric Rossel, 2 ex-libris gravés armoriés contrecollés au contreplat supérieur. Quelques frottements, certaines annotations ont subi le couteau du relieur, manque de papier angulaire sans atteinte au texte aux pp. 22-23 ; Sabin 6865 ‎
