This article broaches the question of the dossier, not in so far as Ponge confronts it, but on the contrary in so far as he backs onto it [adosse], favoring the back [dos], straddling dossiers to the point where he invents a “Man finally become centaur.” On the way we find a suitcase, a “treasury of white folds” that is to be saddled “like a horse,” Claudel as a turtle, an upturned table, an empty turtle shell made into a lyre, and finally, a dictionary that is less thesaurus than centaur.
