Author's note on the first page of the "Son nom" movement:
Le texte de la première de ces pièces est un poème arabe tiré du Jardin des Caresses de Mr Franz Toussaint. Ceux des cinq autres sont extraits de l'Anthologie de la littérature chinoise par Sung-Nien-Hsu et ont respectivement pour auteurs MM. K'ang-Po-Ts'ing, Tsong Po-hona, Lieou Ta-po, Me-Cheng et Wang Ye-ngan.
Who is the translator of the Chinese poems? Can one include text incipits to attempt to guess at the names of the original authors, as "Tsong Po-hona" and most of the others (Lieou Ta-Po is clearly Li Tai Po!) seem to be new to us at least as written??... -ES
