Notes about André Breton, [not before 1947].

The manuscript comprises a series of thoughts headed by a quotation from Jean de Tinan about hypocrisy, "le vice le plus honteux de l'humanité." They briefly characterize the moral and intellectual defects of Hugnet's foe, André Breton, presumably meant to be used in some of his writings against Breton. One of them refers to a dated fact: "l'homme ne parvient jamais à sortir de ses dimensions. En 1947 vous avez donné la mesure des vôtres."
