"Sur la Tombe de Huysmans" par Léon Bloy. Léon Bloy était un romancier et essayiste français (1846-1917).

Blood of the Poor (originally Le Sang du pauvre), by Catholic writer Léon Bloy, is perhaps the hardest to read of Léon Bloy¿s writings, as it goes straight to the heart of the matter of what is wrong in the world. It is hard to read, emotively, because it gives the honest reader no room for cover, no space for shelter, no shadow of a tree to hide under. With avarice as its subject, it is a dark poem in prose, a sermon in the style of Savonarola, with the biting satire of a Jonathan Swift."The Blood and the Flesh of the Poor are the only aliments that can nourish, the substance of the rich being a poison and a putrefaction. It is therefore a necessity of hygiene that the poor be devoured by the rich who find that very good, and who ask for it again. Rich children are fortified by the juice of the poors¿ flesh, and the rich man¿s cuisine is endowed with concentrate of the poor.""You believe yourselves to be innocent because you have not slit somebody¿s throat, as yet, I want to believe; because you have not forced open somebody¿s door nor scaled his wall in order to despoil him of his possessions; because finally you have not transgressed human laws too visibly. You are so gross, so carnal, for you do not conceive of a crime that cannot be seen. But I say to you, my very dear brother, that you are a plant, and that that assassin is your flower.""It is true that there are refuges: drunkenness, prostitution of the body, suicide, or madness. Why would the dance not continue?"

Constantinople and Byzantium by Léon Bloy (1846-1917) was originally published in book form in 1917, itself a "definitive re-printing of The Byzantine Epic and Gustave Schlumberger, published in 1906 by the Nouvelle Revue." This book is a summary and interpretation then, à la Bloy, of Schlumberger¿s "trilogy" with its focus on the Macedonian dynasty of Byzantium from the middle of the tenth century to the middle of the eleventh. It covers the rise and fall of such warrior emperors as Nicephorus Phocas, John Tzimiskes, and Basil II, the "Bulgar Slayer," under whom the Eastern Roman Empire experienced a kind of Renaissance, after a long series of wars with Bulgars, Rus (Russians), Saracens, and later Normans, to name only a few peoples, in the years and decades immediately preceding the Crusades. The last chapter treats of the two Porphyrogenita ("born in the purple") empresses, Zoe and Theodora, "last branches of the Macedonian oak.""It is proven that God has no need of anyone¿s ¿day after,¿ and that his eternal today satisfies him. Pettiness is no less asked for than Greatness in the laboratory of prodigies. Disparate or desperate successions operate inexpressibly in a mysterious and adored way, in view of compensations or ineffable recuperations. So it is very simple that a series of mediocre or abject emperors should succeed a personage like the great Basil in order to destroy his work. Thirty years after his death, in 1055, his empire was ruined forever."

She Who Weeps (Our Lady of La Salette) by Léon Bloy (Celle qui pleure, in French) was originally published in 1908. This is an English translation of a work that is arguably a keystone of religious thought in Bloy¿s canon, given the author¿s strong belief in, and promotion of, not only Mariology but also Millenarianism, both which beliefs permeate his work. Originally begun in 1879, before his articles written as a scatalogical demolitionary pamphleteer for the Chat Noir journal, before his ground-breaking first novel, The Desperate Man, which was, by the author¿s own admission, the beginning of the "conspiration of silence" against him - She Who Weeps was surprisingly abandoned at first. It was only later when Pierre Termier, a lay "ambassador of Mary," and close friend of the author in his later years, approached Bloy about the work, that the latter, encouraged, and with rekindled interest, picked it up again and brought it to completion.It discusses the story of Mélanie Calvat, and also Maximin Giraud, two children-shepherds in the French Alps, witnesses to the Apparition of the Very Holy Virgin Mary on September 19, 1846, - twelve years before the more famous Marian Apparition at Lourdes - and the consequences that the event had on the lives of the two children - particularly Mélanie, who devoted her life to promoting the message."Pass it on to all my My People, the Mother of God had said to the Shepherds, having announced to them the Great News..."

"Exégèse des lieux communs" est une ¿uvre complexe et provocatrice qui reflète la pensée et le style littéraire distinctifs de Léon Bloy. Léon Bloy était un écrivain catholique fervent, et sa foi catholique imprègne de nombreux aspects de son travail. Dans cet ouvrage, il examine un large éventail de sujets, en mettant l'accent sur la moralité, la foi, et la critique de la société de son temps.Le terme "lieux communs" dans le titre se réfère aux idées reçues, aux clichés, et aux conventions sociales qui prévalent dans la société. Bloy les remet en question, les critique, et les déconstruit de manière souvent provocante. Il utilise un style d'écriture intense et passionné pour exprimer ses opinions et ses convictions.Léon Bloy était un écrivain engagé socialement, et il abordait des questions de justice sociale, de pauvreté, et d'injustice dans ses écrits. Il était également connu pour sa critique féroce de la bourgeoisie et de l'indifférence envers les souffrances des plus démunis."Exégèse des lieux communs" est un ouvrage qui demande aux lecteurs de réfléchir profondément sur les valeurs morales, la foi, et la condition humaine. Il est souvent considéré comme l'un des ouvrages les plus importants de la littérature catholique et de la littérature française du début du XXe siècle.Léon Bloy, en tant qu'écrivain, a marqué la littérature française par sa voix distinctive et sa vision du monde profondément enracinée dans sa foi catholique. Son style éloquent et son engagement en font un auteur incontournable pour ceux qui s'intéressent à la littérature religieuse et à la critique sociale.

Publié pour la première fois en 1905, ce recueil de textes rédigés entre 1884 et 1900, est d'une acuité rare. Bloy dénonce comme à son habitude la société bienséante et moutonienne qui crédite les belluaires et les porchers, Bloy se définit comme un très humble et très ingénu vociférateur. dont le dessein est de dénoncer les improbes en littérature: ceux qui volent et ceux qui rampent. Car ces deux espèces menacent de tout dévorer.

Le Désespéré est à la fois une autobiographie romancée et un prétexte à méditations lyriques et mystiques. Le héros Caïn Marchenoir y raconte sa vie avec Véronique. L'histoire est librement inspirée de la vie de Léon Bloy qui se révèle un romancier singulier: les événements et l'intrigue, chez lui, comptent moins que les grands thèmes intérieurs que développent d'immenses digressions.Marchenoir raconte l'histoire de son âme douloureuse, de sa conversion, de son séjour à la Grande Chartreuse. Des pages étonnantes sur l'art sacré, sur la pauvreté, sur la douleur, s'intercalent entre les moments d'un drame humain dont chaque épisode avoisine l'épouvante. Le roman de Bloy exprime ses tourments spirituels, ses angoisses, ses illuminations et ses rechutes dans la nuit. Ce livre, qui ne connut aucun succès à sa parution, se révèle aujourd'hui être le chef d'oeuvre d'un auteur souvent cité, qu'on redécouvre peu à peu, et qui a forgé un style qui compte parmi les plus étincelants de la langue française.

Léon Bloy (1846 -1917) à Bourg-la-Reine, est un romancier et essayiste français. Connu pour son roman Le Désespéré, largement inspiré de sa relation avec Anne-Marie Roulé, il est aussi un polémiste célèbre. C'est à cette époque également qu'il entame la rédaction d'un premier roman largement autobiographique, le Désespéré. Le drame vécu par les deux principaux protagonistes, Caïn Marchenoir et Véronique Cheminot, est de fait la transposition de celui que vit Bloy avec Anne-Marie, une relation où la sensualité est peu à peu effacée par le mysticisme. L'oeuvre est achevée en 1886 mais, l'éditeur craignant d'éventuels procès, sa publication n'a lieu qu'en janvier 1887, et sans grand écho.

" Nous assistons en France, et depuis longtemps déjà, à un spectacle si extraordinaire que les malheureux appelés à continuer notre race imbécile n'y croiront pas. Cependant, nous y sommes assez habitués, nous autres, pour avoir perdu la faculté d'en être surpris. C'est le spectacle d'une Église, naguère surélevée au pinacle des constellations et cathédrant sur le front des séraphins, tellement tombée, aplatie, caduque, si prodigieusement déchue, si invraisemblablement aliénée et abandonnée qu'elle n'est plus capable de distinguer ceux qui la vénèrent de ceux qui la contaminent. Que dis-je ? Elle en est au point de préférer et d'avantager de ses bénédictions les plus rares ceux de ses fils qu'elle devrait cacher dans d'opaques ombres, dans d'occultes et compliqués souterrains, dont la clef serait jetée, au son des harpes et des barbitons, dans l'abîme le plus profond du Pacifique, par des cardinaux austères expédiés à très grands frais sur une flotte de trois cents vaisseaux !... " L.B.
