It was through[nbsp]Le Parti pris des choses, a collection of thirty-two poems written between 1924 and 1939 and published in 1942, that Francis Ponge became known as a poet. Two years later, in 1944, Sartre wrote The Man and Things, because, according to Sartre, Ponge's project is not to describe as best as possible," with the means at hand " that language offers him, the things he meets.Sartre reproaches Ponge for posing" the anteriority of the object on the subject " and, as a result, reducing men to the rank of" automatons ".
