scène / scene
The figure comprehends every ‘scene’ (in the household sense of the term) as an exchange of reciprocal contestations.
loquela
This word, borrowed from Ignatius of Loyola, designates the flux of language through which the subject tirelessly rehashes the effects of an action: an emphatic form of the lover’s discourse.
errance / errantry
Though each love is experienced as unique and though the subject rejects the notion of repeating it elsewhere later on, he sometimes discovers in himself a kind of diffusion of amorous desire; he then realises he is doomed to wander until he dies, from love to love.
compassion / compassion
The subject experiences a sentiment of violent compassion with regard to the loved object each time he sees, feels, or knows the loved object is unhappy or in danger, for whatever reason external to the amorous relation itself.
signes / signs
Whether he seeks to prove his love, or to discover if the other loves him, the amorous subject has no system of sure signs at his disposal
informateur / informer
A friendly figure whose constant role, however, seems to be to wound the amorous subject by “innocently” furnishing commonplace information about the loved being, though the effect of this information is to disturb the subject’s image of that being.
