Description
Summary:Writing a poem implies the existence of the « I », who is likely to involve another « you » who is not only the reader. Within the framework of this particular enunciation lies the use of the homage-poem which provides modern poetry with a pretext for intertextual play. In the poem Les poètes, Aragon heightens the complexity of the usual intertextual dialogue, putting the reader in the perspective of infinite intertextuality. This strategy can be described by the study of three new practices in Aragon's work – icon-making, track games, and what I would call the third intertextuality. In this first-person poem, the perspective of abysmal intertextuality prevails through these three practices coexisting with other more traditional ones.
