Revue qui a un faible tirage, mais qu'apprièce l'élite des écrivains français...". "Comme travail concernant l'Italie, je corrige les épreuves de la nouvelle édition de ma Sicile, et avant-hier, j'ai enregistré à la radio quatre nouvelles conférences. J'avais parlé le mardi 3 avril: sur les rives de la Brenta, le mardi 10: le décors des Géorgiques, je ferai le 17: Sous les chênes verts de Spolète (ou la paix de Michel-Ange); le 24: Barrès à Naples; rien le mardi 1 mai; Le temple de Malatesta le 8 mai; et le 15: Goethe à Torbole. Vous voyez que c'est varié!...". Total of over 200 pp. Most in-8°, some on postcards.
