First Writings

 

Hello. Below is a text file with the original French text followed by a machine translation in English. All footnotes written by the Collège de 'Pataphysique and included. Being that it's just a machine translation, portions of it don't quite make sense and much of Torma's manipulations of the language is lost. But one can still gleam the idea presented in these poems. If there's an easier or preferred way to format these texts (perhaps each language its own file?), please let me know, but I think the file will serve as a tolerable resource until (if ever) a professional translation becomes available. I wouldn't hold my breath.
