Abstract

One of the neuralgic issue of the debates around the lyrical genre in the last decades has been the problematic relationship between the empirical author, his textual correlate and the subject who enunciates it. The elusive "I" is an ambiguous entity, which opens up successive relational spaces, especially when the name of the author and verifiable biographical data are inscribed in the poem. A polemical tension is opened between the autobiographical tradition and the new autofiction, both of which are much studied for prose, but with little theoretical development in poetry. These archi-genres strive to colonize the enigmatic space of the autopoetic poem with the testimonial force of the anthroponym.
