With great method, but not without a hint of incisive humor, Jean Paulhan attempts in this unpublished text to unravel the mysteries of Alain's thought. By mysteries are meant the paradoxes that bathe it: a peremptory but delicate thought, certain yet without having any concern for the truth. In a delicious mimetic tone, Paulhan illuminates what links him to Alain, beyond the problem, the proof or the solution, beyond even the idea or the imagination: thought as a profession whose only valid laws are the rules of language.
