Part-travelogue, part-autobiography and rich in imagery, it sealed Gauguin's reputation as a painter of the tropics. This edition brings the original co-authored text of \u003cem\u003eNoa Noa\u003c\/em\u003e to the public, allowing a new interpretation of Gauguin to emerge. Written together with the poet Charles Morice, it sets up a dichotomy between the 'savage painter' and the 'civilised poet', one which reveals the painter's careful orchestration of his persona and manipulation of its reception. Claire Moran's introduction situates the text within Gauguin's aesthetic, detailing its complex history and signalling its themes. \u003cem\u003eNoa Noa\u003c\/em\u003e is followed by a first print edition of the \u003cem\u003eManuscrit tir  du Livre des m tiers de Vehbi-Zumbul Zadi, \u003c\/em\u003ean artistic treatise, penned by Gauguin.
