<ref name="n2"> Marie de Régnier rappelle ici affectueusement à Proust son ancienne appartenance à l'académie Canaque, ou Canaquadémie, un cercle de jeunes écrivains qui fréquentaient le salon de son père, le poète José-Maria de Heredia, vers 1893-1895. Marie de Heredia (elle épousera Henri de Régnier en 1895) avait fondé ce cercle irrévérencieux au moment de l'élection de son père à l'Académie française en 1894. Elle en était la reine, Proust le secrétaire perpétuel, et l'académie comptait parmi ses membres Henri de Régnier, Pierre Louÿs, André Gide, Paul Valéry, Philippe Berthelot, Léon Blum, et d'autres. Voir une lettre de Gérard d'Houville (nom de plume de Marie de Régnier) à Paul Valéry à l'occasion de son élection à l'Académie française, dans laquelle elle évoque son passé « canaque » : « Chronique du Figaro. Lettre à Paul Valéry » (Le Figaro, 23 juin 1927, p. 1). Déjà, en février 1914, lorsqu'elle écrivait à Proust pour le remercier de l'envoi de Swann, Marie de Régnier s'adressait ainsi à lui : « Merci mon cher Canaque d'avoir écrit pour ma délectation ce livre étonnant […] » (CP 03432 ; Kolb, XVI, nº 208). En avril 1920, Henri de Régnier conclut ainsi une lettre à Proust : « La Reine des Canaques me charge de vous transmettre ses affectueux souvenirs [...] » (CP 04141 ; Kolb, XIX, nº 103).
