Abstract

How do poems remember? What kinds of memory do poems register that factual, chronological accounts of the past are oblivious to? What is the self created by such practices of memory? To answer these questions, Uta Gosmann introduces a general theory of 'poetic memory,' a manner of thinking that eschews simple-minded notions of linearity and accuracy in order to uncover the human subject's intricate relationship to a past that it cannot fully know. Gosmann explores poetic memory in the work of Sylvia Plath, Susan Howe, Ellen Hinsey, and Louise GlYck, four American poets writing in a wide range

Abstract

La complessità delle connessioni fra umano e non-umano ha trovato nella tradizione poetica statunitense sviluppi estetici originali per ampiezza e profondità. Al contempo, volendo articolare nel testo letterario il silenzio della natura e le sue conseguenze, l’indagine estetica si è sempre più caricata di valenze assiologiche ed epistemologiche, in un crescente intrecciarsi di estetica ed etica. In queste pagine, tre delle maggiori poetesse del Novecento americano aiutano ad illuminare proprio questo spazio di riflessione, ancora ampiamente inesplorato dalla critica. La lettura di Denise Levertov, Mary Oliver e Louise Glück rivela una tensione relazionale il cui fulcro immaginativo ed etico è qui rintracciato nel dialogo muto ma costitutivo fra io lirico e natura. Poesia dopo poesia fiorisce l’impegno poetico a tradurre per il lettore quel tacito conversare che intesse il rapporto fra soggetto umano e mondo naturale e che contiene e mantiene le polarità costitutive di un’interazione in apparenza impossibile, silenziosa eppure sensibile, differita eppure presente, ineffabile eppure reale. Questa lirica esalta e potenzia il carattere relazionale e perfino dialogico dell’esperienza. L’espressione poetica si configura, allora, come un tentativo di con-versare, di costruire insieme all’altro, natura e lettore, la poesia
