Words in the Camera Obscura (about the Poetry of Augusto de Campos)

Main Article Content

Gonzalo Aguilar

Abstract

This essay analyzes the work of Augusto de Campos and his relationship with visual poetry. Starting from the Brazilian poet's use of the black page to compose his poems, it proposes a reading of his work in relation to the legacy of Mallarmé and his idea of writing. Subsequently, starting from the idea of the materiality of poetic language that is at the heart of Augusto de Campos’ poetic project, the passage towards a haptic dimension that occurs in his poems, especially in “Anticéu” (“Anticielo”) of 1984, is proposed.
