TI - Exile of Saint John Perse: poetic of vivacity as a resistance act
AB - Exile of Saint-John Perse: poetic of vivacity as a resistance act It is against a negative vision of the evolution of history and against the negligence of the work by some writers on behalf of social engagement that Saint-John Perse (1887-1975) refuses to consider his collection, Exile (1944) as a work of resistance. Loneliness is an essential condition for the creation and the dehistoricization included the theme of the artwork in a timeless and universal dimension. The function of the poet is to recall the importance of a dynamic language that resists to the tyranny of rationalism. The poetic creation is the means to resist any dehumanization. The lesson of optimism of the poet directs man towards a future and a horizon to conquer.
