Prosaic Imagination in Contemporary Personal Poetry

Eliot’s idea of a poem as “impersonality,” or the trend of hiding a personal life behind a poem’s mask. The willingness to write personal poetry goes back to the breakthrough of the American Confessional Movement of the late 1950s. It established a tradition in poetry that has evolved and survived until today. Personal poetry is an attempt to express concerns about the individual’s worth and the value of life in a modern and seemingly strange world. The contemporary poet’s choice of writing about himself and his life has influenced the nature of creative imagination in contemporary poetry. This tendency affects and limits the manifestations of creative imagination in poetry.This paper aims to investigate and discuss this phenomenon. The conceptual framework consists of the
examination and discussion of types of images and features of poetic imagination in the selected samples of contemporary personal poetry. The significant contribution of the study is conceptualisation of the prosaic imagination as a dominant mode of creative imaginatio

From Poetic Imagination to Imaging: Contemporary Notions of Poetic Imagination in Poetry

One feature that seems to emerge repeatedly through time is the notion of imagination and the term ‘poetic imagination’ to depict the emotional, imaginative, intellectual and the expressive language used to reflect the writer’s consciousness. This paper primarily discusses the core finding of my research in the concepts, theories and ideas of poetic imagination. The research characterizes a series of modes of imagination in contemporary poetry. These modes have been drawn from the existing notions and concepts of poetic imagination. The research identifies that imagination in contemporary poetry moves more towards imaging rather than poetic imagination. In other words, imagination shows greater affinity to imaging in contemporary poetry. This paper aims to present the significant contribution of the overall research which is the conceptualization of a paradigm of various modes of imagination in contemporary poetry, with imaging and poetic imagination as its two ends. Other modes of creative imagination reside between imaging and poetic imagination.

"Ancient or modern? Bérardier de Bataut's Essai sur le récit (1776)"

When François-Joseph Bérardier de Bataut first published his Essai sur le récit, ou entretiens sur la manière de raconter in 1776, the book received enthusiastic reviews and was praised for being an instructive account of the art of storytelling. This fact has not, however, prevented the book from being all but forgotten today. The present contribution proposes an examination of this text, aiming to reflect on the reasons for the Essai sur le récit’s oblivion and to demonstrate the various respects in which this oblivion appears to be unjustified. It does so by showing that while the Essai sur le récit remains strongly influenced by the classicist period, especially in the range of authors quoted and in some of the core values attributed to narrative, it also contains quite a few more innovative aspects, especially in the very definition of narrative given and in the treatment of narrative circumstances. Attention to Bérardier’s text thus promises to contribute to a growing interest in the persistence of the classical heritage during the Age of Enlightenment, at the same time as it proves relevant to our understanding of the poetics of narrative in the French eighteenth century.

LA DIMENSION POETIQUE DU DISCOURS RELIGIEUX

by Jacques Coulardeau

Sans entrer dans le détail de la démonstration de ce que je vais avancer, le langage, le pouvoir conceptuel, la saisie discriminatoire de l’environnement continu, la déconstruction de ce continu et la reconstruction d’un univers discret, la modélisation de ce discret en vue de l’expliquer, de le comprendre, de prévoir ou prédire l’avenir, c’est tout cela qui est le creuset même du discours descriptif et des discours magique, religieux ou poétique du dépassement du réel vers un au-delà qui explique, prédit, annonce, assure, garantit, imagine l’avenir.

Cette richesse poétique aide à la mémorisation dans un monde essentiellement oral, produit une beauté qui s’ancre dans... more Cette richesse poétique aide à la mémorisation dans un monde essentiellement oral, produit une beauté qui s’ancre dans la conscience populaire et qui produit un effet mesmérien s’appuyant sur les rythmes vitaux de l’homme. Cela produit une pensée circulaire et un effet d’auto-hypnose. Cette pensée est que la beauté reflète la beauté de la création de Dieu, et donc Dieu. Le plaisir trouvé dans cette beauté d’ordre esthétique devient une porte d’entrée vers la pensée de Dieu, et la foi. D’où l’hypothèse de travail quand nous sécularisons cette beauté associée à Dieu, que nous avons alors une beauté saisie partiellement en soi ainsi que faisant référence à une spiritualité comprise comme non religieuse. Ceci m’amène à penser que cette spiritualité non religieuse est un développement qui peut oublier ses racines et devenir une diversion. La spiritualité religieuse est une étape fondamentale de l’homme dans sa conquête de l’univers dès ses premiers pas, première forme de spéculation sur la nature et le fonctionnement de l’univers. Comme toutes les premières formes d’un phénomène, les formes ultérieures semblent les nier alors même qu’elles les dépassent et donc les développent.

« La sécularisation dont vous parlez est un phénomène circonscrit, et même bien français. Presqu’une illusion d’optique. Même ici, et partout autour de nous, le religieux est présent. Notre quotidien, notre culture sont saturés de références religieuses. L’architecture, et pas seulement celle des églises, la musique, la peinture, la littérature, les comportements… La planète entière est religieuse. » (Jean-Christophe Attias et Esther Benbassa, « L’école n’a pas le droit de faire le silence sur le fait religieux », Libération, samedi 3 novembre 2007)

Ces auteurs touchent à un fait absolument crucial, mais leur volonté de tordre le bâton dans le sens inverse de la torsion courante fait qu’ils renversent le défaut sans le dépasser. La religion n’est pas partout mais tout étant né dans un seul creuset, la religion comme le langage étaient les deux éléments fondamentaux et primitifs. La religion est donc la matrice de la pensée et de la vie de l’humanité. On ne peut en rien supprimer cette dimension sans appauvrir l’humanité. La seule chose que l’on puisse faire c’est de supprimer le concept de Dieu dans cette spiritualité comme le Bouddhisme l’a fait avec l’Hindouisme dont il est issu.

La poésie n’est donc pas un plus du discours religieux, mais est en osmose génétiquement
originelle avec le discours religieux.

Pesquisamos o processo receptivo de leituras de imagens. Buscamos refletir a desconstrução e construção de sentidos e realidades das imagens fotográficas de projetos sócio-culturais. Adotamos como objeto empírico dois livros impressos: Arte de Transformação..., com fotografias de Mila Petrillo, e Do Avesso ao Direito, com fotografias de Iolanda Huzak. As leituras ocorrem a partir da potencialidade da comunicação ficcional e poética dessas imagens. Nesse momento, percebemos um jogo de conexão estético-afetiva entre homem, mundo e imagem. A potencialidade ficcional acontece pela narrativa de formação de novos sentidos, pelos silêncios de internalização, pelas transformações da imagem em palavras e pelas encruzilhadas de imaginários. A potencialidade poética percebemos pela compreensão do invisível, do onírico, do conteúdo sensível e das metáforas visuais. Por fim, pelo processo de compartilhamento de narrativas e poéticas, a experiência do sagrado se revela e reconstrói imaginários, religando homem, mundo e imagem.

Palavras-Chave: imagem fotográfica; projetos sócio-culturais; potência ficcional; potência poética; ser social.



Abstract

Our research deals with the reception process regarding image reading. We aim to reflect the deconstruction and construction of the senses and realities in photographic images of socio- cultural projects. We employ two books as empirical objects: Arte de Transformação... (Art of Transformation...), with photographs by Mila Petrillo, and Do Avesso ao Direito (Turning Wrongs into Rights), with photographs by Iolanda Huzak. Image reading stems from the potential of fictional communication and from the poetics of the images concerned. The fictional potential is fulfilled by means of narratives in the formation of new senses, by means of silences in the internalization process, by means of the transformation of images into words and of the crossroads of imaginaries. We perceive the poetic potential as stemming from non- visual comprehension of the images, from their oneiric aspect, from their sensitive core and from their visual metaphors. Finally, as a consequence of the joint process of narrative and poetics, a holy experience is revealed and rebuilds imaginaries, reconnecting man, world and image.

Key-words: photograph image; socio-cultural projects; fictional potency; poetic potency; social being.
