Au lieu d’une préface
Pierres et paroles. Roger Caillois et les secrets d’une écriture lapidaire
Semblables aux paroles, les pierres gardent des secrets. Dans de nombreuses publications, Roger Caillois, ainsi que d’autres poètes, enquête sur ce silence. Surpris par leur énigmatique beauté, il ne cesse de la comparer à celle des images qui les représentent. Les pierres sont des témoins muets du cours des âges de la planète et des générations. Elles sont là ; indifférentes aux changements et aux permanences de leur environnement. Par cette ind…

To celebrate the centenary of borges's birth, in 1999, thebibliothèque Nationale de France dedicated, in his honor, a day of conferences, round tables, and film screenings. In that place I presented "Borges et la bibliothèque,"1 almost a common-place, one topic or two, as much because of the institution where it took place as because of the argumentation of recurrent reasoning it implies. I alluded to the excesses and redundancies of a theme that…

Miranda and the Salvation of the Shipwreck
One hundred and two years after the publication of Ariel, José Enrique Rodó's best known book, a publication that oriented Latin American thought for decades, we continue to celebrate as much as disregard it. Does it make sense, from this distance, to speak of an Arielian cycle with a nostalgia similar to the one with which, after centuries, we refer to the Arthurian cycle, narrating once more the heroic adventures of the king of the Britons?
