Jean-Louis Wagnière servit Voltaire en qualité de secrétaire de 1755 à 1778 avant de défendre sa mémoire jusqu’à sa mort. Ses lettres assurent une importante médiation dans notre connaissance de la vie et de l’œuvre du grand philosophe.Dans cette étude Christophe Paillard rassemble d’importants documents inédits qui apportent des éclaircissements sur les œuvres de Voltaire et ses stratégies épistolaires, ses rapports avec les éditeurs, l’installation de sa bibliothèque à Pétersbourg et l’histoire de l’édition de Kehl. Or, C. Paillard montre aussi que le témoignage de Wagnière doit être interprété avec plus de précaution que la critique n’a eu tendance à le faire auparavant. Il fait voir que l’attribution de certaines œuvres ou les remarques sur l’édition de Kehl doivent être replacées dans le contexte d’une mise en scène; on découvre à quel point le ‘petit scribe’ a assimilé et mis en œuvre les stratégies littéraires de son maître.Dans Jean-Louis Wagnière, secrétaire de Voltaire: lettres et documents Christophe Paillard renouvelle l’étude de l’épistolaire et des méthodes d’écriture de Voltaire. Il procure aux spécialistes de Voltaire une mine de documents inédits, et, de plus, il nous offre un moyen de les lire.
Deniot is known for layering art and furniture from different periods, custom-made pieces with one-of-a-kind antiques with inviting harmony and elegance. Deniot s timeless and glamorous rooms possess an almost cinematic aesthetic without being either too formal or trendy. With stunning photography and a series of discerning project-by-project conversations between the designer and author Pamela Golbin, Destinations takes the reader around the world to eighteen destinations showcasing Deniot s newest never-before-published international projects, from his own handsome Paris office, tropical retreats in Miami, Manhattan aeries, and the interior of a private jet in Aspen, to an elegant townhouse in London, an Italian waterfront villa, and projects in Colombia, India, Russia, and Morocco. Destinations is the design book must of the year, both for fans of his work and the Francophile dreamer looking for inspiration wherever they live in the wide world.
The first book on the work of a designer whose refined classical interiors are widely desired and emulated as the epitome of French style. Honoured as one of the top designers by all the international design magazines and universally admired by design editors, Jean-Louis Deniot is in demand. His updated classical approach now graces interiors in Paris, the French countryside, Moscow, India, New York, Chicago, L.A., and beyond-and his legacy is already being compared to that of design greats such as Jacques Grange and Alberto Pinto. Deniot is an architect first, ensuring that the interior architecture of his rooms is harmonious before giving a neoclassical approach to the decor. He brings education, logic, and design history to his work, with one eye looking at the most refined style of French eighteenth century and one eye on the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. His mix is highly individual and includes contemporary art and custom-made furniture, yet his rooms always look comfortable and are never overly formal or trendy. This book demonstrates a new, sophisticated classical style that is changing the scene for international design and offering inspiration and ideas to decorators, homeowners, and antiques enthusiasts.
