Of how a young baron climbs the trees and decides to stay there all the life.

‘Le baron perché’, translated in French language from  the Italian original ‘Il barone rampante’ by Italo Calvino (1957), at the association ‘Estella’ at Barcelonnette (Haute Provence, Francia) present for years and committed to promoting the attendance of school especially through training outings.

To benefit from one’s calling[1]/19.

“…Psychoanalysis consists in walking on all fours – that is partnership, without confusion of subjects or legs – which, if it ends well, still remain as an endowment (i.e. dowry) for the following life too.”[2]

It doesn’t clear the anguish, it doesn’t make a solution : but it opens to imagination, so captivating and dangerous.

So that, evidently, the reciprocal holds : from one’s capability to make partnership you can read a good dowry (i.e. endowment), satisfactory goal of individual work.

Science of thinking is a bit like bread, for those who usually eat brioches.
