00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.200 align:middle line:90%


00:00:01.200 --> 00:00:04.840 align:middle line:90%
And the last one.

00:00:04.840 --> 00:00:09.420 align:middle line:84%
The first page of a
long didactic poem.

00:00:09.420 --> 00:00:14.310 align:middle line:84%
Too long to be read
[INAUDIBLE] to be read tonight.

00:00:14.310 --> 00:00:22.210 align:middle line:84%
So it is the end of Recumbents
but written 20 years ago.

00:00:22.210 --> 00:00:27.930 align:middle line:84%
So after this book, I
published about 10 books.

00:00:27.930 --> 00:00:31.950 align:middle line:84%
But so in 20 years, we'll
meet again and I read.

00:00:31.677 --> 00:00:33.080 align:middle line:90%
Aide-mémoire.

00:00:33.525 --> 00:00:37.369 align:middle line:84%
Ce qui a lieu d'être,
ne va pas sans dire.

00:00:37.890 --> 00:00:41.623 align:middle line:84%
Ce qu'on ne peut pas dire,
il faut l'écrire.

00:00:42.150 --> 00:00:45.635 align:middle line:84%
La partie donne sur le tout,
qui donne la partie.

00:00:46.040 --> 00:00:51.949 align:middle line:84%
Savoir à quoi ça ressemble,
c'est notre savoir non absolu.

00:00:52.619 --> 00:00:56.422 align:middle line:84%
Il faut de la semblance
pour faire de la contiguïté.

00:00:56.719 --> 00:01:01.539 align:middle line:84%
Le poème est des choses prochaines
qu'il faut aller chercher.

00:01:02.178 --> 00:01:05.576 align:middle line:84%
La comparaison entretient
l'incomparable,

00:01:05.866 --> 00:01:09.241 align:middle line:90%
la distinction des choses entre elles.

00:01:09.558 --> 00:01:12.538 align:middle line:90%
Poésie interdit l'identification.

00:01:12.858 --> 00:01:16.264 align:middle line:90%
Pour la douceur du comme rigoureuse.

00:01:16.788 --> 00:01:18.771 align:middle line:90%
Commun comme-un,

00:01:19.170 --> 00:01:22.445 align:middle line:84%
c'est tout comme faire
comme si c'était comme un.

00:01:22.800 --> 00:01:24.510 align:middle line:90%
But in fact, this--

00:01:24.510 --> 00:01:26.850 align:middle line:84%
I observed that
this two last ones

00:01:26.850 --> 00:01:29.250 align:middle line:84%
are absolutely
untranslatable because I have

00:01:29.250 --> 00:01:31.960 align:middle line:90%
written I disjoined, decompose.

00:01:31.960 --> 00:01:32.460 align:middle line:90%
Yeah.

00:01:32.460 --> 00:01:32.880 align:middle line:90%
Right.

00:01:32.880 --> 00:01:33.380 align:middle line:90%
Disjoint.

00:01:33.380 --> 00:01:42.420 align:middle line:84%
[SPEAKING FRENCH] So Wilson
writes community but come

00:01:42.420 --> 00:01:44.070 align:middle line:84%
is a French word,
so it doesn't work.

00:01:44.070 --> 00:01:44.570 align:middle line:90%
Yeah.

00:01:44.570 --> 00:01:46.620 align:middle line:84%
The idea is that this
is a French word poem.

00:01:46.620 --> 00:01:48.780 align:middle line:84%
Good translation
but doesn't work.

00:01:48.780 --> 00:01:50.145 align:middle line:90%
[LAUGHTER]

00:01:50.145 --> 00:01:51.970 align:middle line:90%


00:01:51.970 --> 00:01:54.180 align:middle line:90%
"'Memorandum.'

00:01:54.180 --> 00:01:58.050 align:middle line:84%
What has grounds to be
Goes not without saying.

00:01:58.050 --> 00:02:02.370 align:middle line:84%
What one cannot say,
writing it is necessary.

00:02:02.370 --> 00:02:06.030 align:middle line:84%
The part gives onto the
whole, which gives the part.

00:02:06.030 --> 00:02:09.030 align:middle line:84%
Knowing what it resembles
is our knowledge.

00:02:09.030 --> 00:02:10.740 align:middle line:90%
Non-absolute.

00:02:10.740 --> 00:02:14.760 align:middle line:84%
Semblance is necessary
to make contiguity.

00:02:14.760 --> 00:02:19.680 align:middle line:84%
The poem is of things nearby
that one must go seek.

00:02:19.680 --> 00:02:22.230 align:middle line:84%
Comparison looks after
the incomparable.

00:02:22.230 --> 00:02:25.200 align:middle line:84%
The distinction of
things among themselves.

00:02:25.200 --> 00:02:28.710 align:middle line:84%
Poetry forbids identification,
for the sweetness,

00:02:28.710 --> 00:02:31.425 align:middle line:90%
rigorous of the like.

00:02:31.425 --> 00:02:32.355 align:middle line:90%
Community?

00:02:32.355 --> 00:02:35.460 align:middle line:90%
Come, unity amounts to the same.

00:02:35.460 --> 00:02:39.920 align:middle line:84%
To act as though it
were a community."

00:02:39.920 --> 00:02:41.000 align:middle line:90%
