abstract
For a long time the scope of “poetry” has been wrongly reduced to its purely emotional contents. Pierre Reverdy in his well-known conference “This emotion called poetry” draws on some of his already ancient views. He argues that the poetic emotion consists both of an affective as of a rational linking between the poet and the reader, and therefore also between the world and words. By means of metaphors (but not exclusively), the poetic emotion gives the strong evidence of human existence.
