Peripatetic Rhythms: The Enjambement in Claudio Rodríguez’s Poetry and the Identity between Signified and Signifier
Abstract
From the formal point of view, Claudio Rodríguez’s verse is characterized by the setting in motion of a rhythm that remains part of the tradition, but also renews it through a personal treatment of the classic Castilian meters through different literary devices, among which the enjambment gains importance. It is also remarkable that we are dealing with a poetry that is composed along the way, which has as a consequence that the poet makes recurring references to walking. This paper aims to demonstrate to what extent the work of the poet from Zamora is a perfect example of the inextricable link between the thematic and formal levels. It also shows the identical symbolic impulse that becomes visible in both the anecdotal components of the signified and the rhetorical factors of the signifier.
