Andre Salmon was one of the premier art critics of his day and the
author of two important eyewitness accounts of early twentieth
century art in France, La jeune peinture francaise and La jeune
sculpture francaise. These works capture the revolutionary spirit
of the period and include references and jokes of a small coterie
of artists and poets that included Picasso, Guillaume Apollinare,
Max Jacob, Georges Braque, and Salmon himself. This is the first
English-language translation of Salmon's first two books, which
serve as the primary sources on the Fauves, the Cubists, and their
avant-garde contemporaries. Gersh-Ne ic's translation includes
annotations that expand upon the period, most notably the literary
references that came so naturally to Salmon. His rapport with his
peers becomes transparent, providing insight into the studio banter
that gave rise to some of the art work of that era, particularly
Picasso's collages. The introduction calls attention to Salmon's
main criteria as a critic and offers an understanding of his
personal aesthetics through which we gain a better sense of his
ideas and prejudices.
Trained at the Ecole Royale des Chartes at the Sorbonne, Paul
Marchegay (1812-1885) was the archivist for the department of
Anjou. A native of the area, and a member of the Industrial Society
of Angers, Marchegay dedicated his career to publishing manuscripts
on the region's history. Published in 1871, Volume 2 contains notes
on the manuscripts published in Volume 1, and alerts readers to
other historical sources. The introduction is by Emile Mabille
(1828-1874), a leading archivist in the manuscript department at
the Bibliotheque National in Paris. The most important text in
these volumes is the Gesta Consulum Andegavorum. It is the only
printed version of this work available, however, modern scholars
consider Marchegay's edition to be of poor quality. This book
retains an interest for modern readers because it includes rare
printed manuscripts, and also because descendants of the family,
the Plantagenets, became the ruling monarchy in England.

Volume 1 contains a collection of important texts by religious and
lay authors written about the Angevin dynasty in its early years,
dating from roughly the tenth to twelfth centuries. The most
important manuscript printed in this collection is the Gesta
Consulum Andegavorum. It is the only printed version of this
manuscript, although modern scholars consider Marchegay's edition
to be of poor quality. The collection also includes the only
biography written about Geoffrey 'le bel' (Plantagenet), Count of
Anjou, by Jean, a twelfth-century monk at Marmoutier. This book
retains an interest for modern readers because it includes rare
printed manuscripts, and also because descendants of the family,
the Plantagenets, became the ruling monarchy in England.
