Hey! I haven't posted here in quite a while...

I was wondering, however, if anyone knows of any print or online versions of Lucile Desmoulins' diary? I've found about a bazillion references to it, but haven't been able to find a version of the diary itself anywhere. I might just be looking in the wrong places, however. Has anyone ever managed to find it?

Thanks!

Indeed I do! A version of it was edited by Philippe Lejeune and published by Editions de Cendres. I think you can buy a copy on French Amazon. If you're in the US, I've found a decent number of university libraries have it. I translated it as part of my Desmoulins Translation Project. It's not the original source material and it's my personal translation, but if that is of interest then let me know.

I've managed to find it in the library. A great many university libraries should have a copy, I think.

I'd be interested! I've read the exerpts in Jules Claretie and I loved the early teenage gothy 'I hate people, I only love trees and flowers' bit he had in there.

What's your email? I'll send it to you.

Is it safe - spamwise - to put my email up here, or should I break it in half or put it on my ljpage instead?

[livviebway.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure. Just break it in half if you're worried about a spambot picking it up, I guess.
