this is going to lead us to something else – on one of these coupled tori, youengage in the manipulation that I have explained for you here, namely, thatyou make a cut, you will obtain this something which is expressed asfollows, namely, that these tori being coupled, you have inside one of thesetori, another torus, a torus of the same kind as the one that I have drawnhere. What this designates, is that here, you can clearly see that whatregards the first torus has something that I called its inside, something in thetorus has been turned inside out, which is exactly in continuity with whatremains of the inside in this first torus. This torus is turned inside out in thesense that henceforth its inside is what goes to the outside, while in order todesignate the latter as being the one around which there is turned inside outthe one here, we see that the one that I designated here, has for its partremained unchanged, namely, that it has its first outside, its outside as it isposed in the loop, it has its outside always in the same place.8
There had therefore been a turning inside out of one of them. I think that,even though these things are very inconvenient, even very inhibiting toimagine, I think all the same that I have conveyed to you, conveyed what isat stake on this particular occasion. I mean that I have made myselfunderstood, I hope, as regards what is at stake.It is altogether remarkable that, what is here [Fig. I-4] does not – eventhough it is literally a torus – does not have the same shape, namely, that itpresents itself as a rod [trique]. It is a rod which nonetheless remains for allthat a torus. I mean that as you have already seen here, what has beenformed, is something that has nothing to do with the first presentation, theone that knots the two tori [Fig. I-5a]. It is not the same sort of chain byreason of the turning inside out of what I call on this occasion the first torus.[cut]9
