Another expression in French is "bibliothèque mentale". See also a recent book by William Marx, Libraries of the Mind.

Merci beaucoup. Alors je dirais que le manuscrit dit "qu'il devoit jouer". Il y a aussi la correspondance Bégon-Perrault à La Rochelle ou Rochefort, si je ne me trompe (vente Aristophil il y a quelques années).
