Val�ry the thinker
Gabriel Josipovici makes some interesting observations about the difference between continental European and British thought in his TLS review of the new translations of Paul Val�ry’s Cahiers (a much more attractive word than Notebooks). But these comments come after the TLS’ extract ends, and I can’t be bothered to copy them out. Maybe tomorrow.
These notebooks were composed in the early morning. A good time for thinking. It’s now a quarter to eleven at night, which is not, I think, almost.
