Program note

« [il] s’approcha de lui Et lui planta son javelot dans le bas de la nuque. Le bronze sortit de ses dents en lui tranchant la langue, Et l’homme chut, serrant le bronze froid entre ses dents. » L’Iliade, Chant V, 72.

« Aucun ne vit entrer Priam. Il s’approcha d’Achille, Il lui embrassa les genoux, il lui baisa les mains, Ces terribles mains qui lui avaient tué tant de fils ! »

L’Iliade, chant XXIV, 349
