Comœdia was a French literary and artistic paper founded by Henri Desgrange on 1 October 1907[1] (Desgrange had already founded L'Auto).[2] It published a number of texts by important literary figures, including Antonin Artaud's first publication on theatre, L'évolution de décor [The Evolution of Decor] (1924).[3]:602 According to Richard Abel, it provides one of the most complete sources of cultural history in France just prior to World War I.[2]
