	Pierre Loti - LoveToKnow 1911 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		PIERRE LOTI [the pen-name of LOUIS MARIE JULIEN VIAUD] (1850-), French author, was born at Rochefort on the 14th of January 1850.
		Loti was on board his ship at the port of Algiers when news was brought to him of his election, on the 21st of May 1891, to the French Academy, In 1892 he published Fantome d'orient, another dreamy study of life in Constantinople, a sort of continuation of Aziyade.
		When all his limitations, however, have been rehearsed, Pierre Loti remains, in the mechanism of style and cadence, one of the most original and most perfect French writers of the second half of the 19th century.

		Loti was 39 when he took part in a French mission to the court of Sultan Moulay Hassan in April and May of 1889.

		Loti cites examples of the severe justice of the sultan, and doesn't hesitate to describe unattractive urban landscapes.

	Loti,Pierre Books - Signed, used, new, out-of-print
		The departure of the caravan from Tangier, the encampments, the nightly arrival of the Mouna, the crossing of the Oued-M'Cazen in flood, the fantasies and "powder-play" of the Arab...
		Loti's sensitive, almost sensuous, and exotic art is peculiarly fitted for such a subject as "the great sea without water," and the Spahi on the Senegal, of romantic passion and seductive smile, "undisciplined but not dissolute," whose love adventures range from sordid and riotous town affairs to his passionate desert romance with Fatou-Gaye.
		Pierre Loti, the romantic Orientalist and seductive travel writer, describes with extraordinary pictorial skill the journey from Saigon into the interior; first along the river Mekong, at the time in flood, then through the thick forest in the heart of which is buried the ruins of Angkor-Thom, with its palaces and temples.

		Pierre Loti's book, L'Égypte, originally published in 1909 and translated from French by W P Baines in 1938, is no longer in print.
		Pierre Loti came to Egypt with the pictures from Description de l'Egypte in his mind's eye and a desire for the mystique of the Arabian Nights in his heart.
		What would Loti have said could he see the crowds of tourists in Luxor today: an estimated 80 cruise vessels (four deep) at anchor on the eastern bank of the Nile, and 7,000 to 8,000 people (with or without Baedeker's new edition in hand) visiting the Theban necropolis daily.

	Pierre Loti Visits the Mummies
		At the turn of the century, the French writer Pierre Loti visited Egypt and recorded his experiences in his book, La mort de Philae (1909.) One of his adventures involved a midnight tour of the Museum of Antiquities in Cairo, led by Gaston Maspero, then head of the Antiquities Service.
		Loti describes this unusual experience in terms that would have delighted Edgar Allan Poe, and his evocative account captures the mysterious ambience that is a genuine and significant aspect of our heritage from ancient Egypt.
		His colorful prose enables us to appreciate the emotional impact of an encounter with the royal Egyptian dead, and reminds us that the mummies catalogued here in dry, technical terms on this website also possess a human dimension that is an undeniable part of their lasting fascination.

		Pierre Loti is the pseudonym under which the French Decadent novelist - and naval officer, artist, and acrobat - Julien Viaud wrote.
		As Peter Wild observes of Loti in his introductory essay in this issue, "his writing shows a gross misunderstanding of the Arab cultures he encountered, but.
		We pick up Loti's narrative on the fourth day of what he acknowledged in his preface to be andnothing but the fantasy of a slow journey, at the pace of swaying camels in the infinite of the pink desert."

	Impressions by Pierre Loti; With an Introduction by Henry James; Pierre Loti
		On the surface, Henry James, the fastidious American anglophile, and Pierre Loti, the Orientalist writer par excellence, could not be more different.
		However, as this book reveals, James was drawn—"surrendered" is the word he uses—to the seductive charms of Loti’s prose, which he describes as "poetry in observation, felicity in sadness," which can suggest a world of meaning in the apparently simple description of a poppy.
		This volume, which consists of a lengthy introduction by James and his selection of writings by Loti that he considers to be his best, is both a gem of literary criticism, and the re-creation by James of his experience of surrendering to the prose of Loti that the reader can share.
