This poem has to do with a Bengali translator’s first encounter with René Char at his residence The French poet questioned his translator on the meaning of “le dard d’Orion” in his poem: “Jeu muet”. The translator interpreted the phrase as having to do with astronomy and thus rendered it as “kâla Purusha” (Zeit Geist or literally as in Hindu mythology: the Primal Being at the beginning of time). René Char then picked a certain variety of the cactus flower in his garden and said that the French “phrase” applied to that particular flower. 2. The imagery in the poem also relates to the simplification of classical Chinese characters (fantizi) by the Peoples Republic of China in the early fifties and the alphabetisation of Chinese characters, known as “pinyin” as opposed to the Wade and Yale systems. The simplified characters produced certain semantic anomalies. ©T. Wignesan, Paris – May 3, 2009
