  1. Hello,
    A significant and amusing point to make: in the second photo, the few introduction lines in capital letters do not contain diacritics. Except the notable accentuation of the first word “OÙ” – “WHERE”, without which starting to read would be really shaky!
    This reminds me of the pro or against struggles about capital letter accentuation that enlivened the composition workshops of my early working years, and the debates in the French society. And also, the feeling of rediscovering an ancient language.
