L’ombre de la femme dans l’œuvre Mourir de ne pas mourir de Paul Éluard

Abstract

The women’s presence study in some Éluard’s poems of his book Mourir de ne pas mourir highlights the baroque influence in his poetry. Our work builds on the major threads of meaning at the heart of each poem: the fertility of the titles constituting isotopic networks within poems, the coherence of their imaginative networks, the neo baroque significant features, the corroborative rhythm and syntax. Through this approach, enunciative aspects of those works appear underlining a period of crisis in the poet’s life.
