Abstract (en)

Demonstrates that Jouin took liberties with the transcription of the sculptor's writings: compares the original text of a letter written by David to the poet Victor Pavie, 7 June 1849, with the version published by Jouin; and accounts for the alterations in light of Jouin's allegiance to political and religious conservatism in Anjou.
