People: landscape and writing

Abstract

We propose a study of Fernando Pessoa's poetics based on the writing -landscape pair. We consider that there is a philosophical approach, in exchange with literature, that needs to be carried out within Pessoa's poems (and his heteronyms), so that we can think about the contemporaneity of his writing. Our hypothesis considers that in this writing in passages there is also a landscape, initially as pagus (as the territory of the written page), but also as art. We hope this interpretation can contribute to what Badiou is urging us to think about: taking Pessoa's poems as a possible condition philosophy’s.
