玩具(節譯)

French toys: one could not find a better illustration of the fact that the adult Frenchman sees the child as another self. All the toys one commonly sees are essentially a microcosm of the adult world; they are all reduced copies of human objects， as if in the eyes of the public the child was， all told， nothing but a smaller man， a homunculus to whom must be supplied objects of his own size.
