Ein Glücksfall für die Historiker: Harry Graf Kessler (1868 – 1937) beschreibt das Zeitgeschehen in den Jahren 1930 + 1931. Seine Beobachtungen sind sehr genau und zeugen von der Bildung eines aufgeklärten Europäers. Besonders elegant sind die etwas schmunzelnden manchmal aber auch etwas bitter klingenden voranschreitenden Kommentare. Ein Rezensent drückte es sehr treffend aus: "Ein wunderbarer Zeitzeuge, klug und aufmerksam". 30/31 sind die Jahre des Aufstiegs der Nazis und deren Kriege mit den liberaleren Kräften.

"18 janvier 1895 : Un bon mot vaut mieux qu'un mauvais livre." Le Journal intime de Jules Renard s'étend de 1887 à sa mort en 1910. Plus qu'une confession, il s'agit de dialogues pris sur le vif et de maximes, souvent piquantes, sur des personnes de son entourage et plus largement à propos de traits de caractère ou de faits de société. Jules Renard note également ses réflexions sur l'écriture et la réception critique de la littérature.

Des histoires sur un passé pas très lointain qui pourrait s'identifier à la réalité d'aujourd'hui, le présent non revu journalistiquement, des gens qui n'ont pas de représentations publiques communes, trop occupés en un sens pour penser à ce qu'ils n'ont jamais été supprimée afin de ne pas signifier un bien ou un mal contemporain. Aussi des contes autobiographiques tels que des expériences personnelles avec d'autres ou des possessions, la paix et les peines, les miracles, les amours et les amitiés.

Como esas embriagantes versiones en español de las baladas románticas premiadas en San Remo o Viña, estos Temas lentos, elegantes y sensuales, captan con la crítica, el diario íntimo o la viñeta satírica las modulaciones de las vanguardias (Duchamp y Warhol, ¡claro!, pero también Aira y Bolaño, Brecht y Beckett...) aplicadas a cuestiones pedestres: la orfandad, el inverosímil costumbrista de una Alemania costera.
