Set of nine handwritten leaves S.d., various sizes. Probably working notes, sketches of texts and poems. - The Age of Rose in the Distance Creation of a style, evocation of his work: "Gathering of critical texts for the... double goal: to go to Paulhan and my book on him to extract everything that can already insinuate my physiological views The black book begins: Rêves. inf. Breton" - "Conclusions How to conclude without introducing new elements: "A second intuition on the letters which makes us a little reason for this law which composes in their use the rhetoric - and the terror, the art of dividing, the art of uniting. This descriptive intuition, I can only suggest it, and advise that it should be verified on the passage from private correspondence to a work to be published. I tried it with Keats". He quotes Shakespeare "the negative capacity, i.e. the power that a man has to exist over uncertainties, mysteries, doubts and without "irritable" attack. Without any awakenable attack after a fact or a reason". Reflection on the choice of vocabulary in the intimate or in the public. It is based on the work and reflections of Paul ELUARD and KEATS. - "Where Terror advances by one step. Reflection on Terror. "It does not teach us to free ourselves". It evokes freedom of speech, which it links to freedom. - "If I've got my nice time - Jealous, come on - You've got these scrapbooks. - Rosette, for a bit of absence your heart has changed And me, seeing this inconstancy Mine somewhere else I've put away" - A collection of unrelated thoughts, a mixture of personal reflections and perhaps, in fact, established (it evokes an incident with Ernst): "Tonight to see lavater... Incident Max Ernst that forces me to go out".
