Topografia, corpografia: natureza, arte e técnica na poesia de Josely Vianna Baptista

This paper analyzes Josely Vianna Baptista’s “Na tela rútila das pálpebras”, a digital work associating poetic word and voice with visual images of different kinds, registers, and origins, which in turn are related to historical, geographic, and geological research. The work’s dual char-acter – corpographical and topographical – is pointed out, the relation between subjectivity and space being defined by away of looking involving both sensitivity and memory, marked by alteri-ties, making poetry a singular voice, a singularity deriving from its own improper nature.
