The redefinition of lyricism in Pierre Reverdy

Contrary to traditional lyricism which was the outpouring of personal feelings, Reverdy's new lyricism sings of an ego coming out of itself which enters into communication with the world which alters it. During this work, through the thoughts of Michel Collot on the alliance of matter-emotion and having recourse to Husserlian phenomenological notions, we study how the new conception of poetic emotion and the new intimacy at Reverdy gives a different meaning to lyricism. It also demonstrates how the stylistic and linguistic peculiarities of Reverdy gave birth to a poetry that can be considered as an alliance of body, mind and world; in the collection, entitled "Les Ardoises du roof", to which particular reference is made, the majority of Reverdy's poetic particularities manifest themselves. In addition, the article has as its final objective to show how turns such as impersonal forms and the interplay of personal pronouns in Reverdy's poetry allow him to paradoxically create a lyrical poetry. an‎d this is how Reverdian poetry is no longer the exaltation of the poet's feelings, but it is the unio‎n of the self, the world and the word that phenomenology calls the subject's openness to the world.
