It is not a memoir, a collection of poems, a novel, short stories, anything like that. In such cases, the designation 'collected writings' or 'selection from the work' is commonly used. In short, several prints have been gathered here, which at a certain time, some time ago, I recognized as suitable for recording.

In order to refresh my memory of my past ideas, I began to go through them and choose them at the same time. Not everything passed my critical eye, but some ideas, long forgotten by my unrefreshed memory, caught my attention over time. Either by novelty, surprising erudition (I don't know where it came from), or lightness, even humor. Brand new, of course."
