LANNEE PSYCHOLOGIQUE IN DESBANCELS,JEAN,L ARGUIER COLLECTION

The correspondence which is conserved in the Larguier des Bancels' col lection at the University of Lausanne shows a little known side of Bin et's character: we see him running single-handedly the Annee Psycholog ique, negotiating contracts with successive publishers, recruting coll aborators - some of them were to become close friends - bringing all h is influence to bear on the editorial orientations of his review even if that meant the occasional compromise with the publisher. The loyal admiration which he inspired in a small circle of collaborators such a s Simon and Larguier des Bancels lead them, after his death, to comple te and carry out the volume he had been preparing, and to refuse to jo in the new team formed under Pieron, after 1912.
