Reflexos Poéticos: diálogos entre Apollinaire, Neoconcretismo, Poema/Processo e a poesia eletrônica de Erthos Albino de Souza, Fernando Nabais, Giselle Beiguelman e Rui Torres

Abstract

This doctoral dissertation tries to prove the hypothesis that Neoconcretism and Process Poetry, Brazilian artistic and poetic movements, introduced aesthetic concepts capable of justifying a critical approach to electronic poetry. This approach is based on identifying three fundamental common points between the aforementioned movements and electronic poems: the encounter between the verbal and visual signs in poetry, the physical body of the viewer as agent in aesthetic fruition and the reader´s participation in the creating poetic process. The theoretical research was carried out through the analysis of some Brazilian and Portuguese electronic poems. From this perspective, we attempted to investigate the relationships between the poetic experiences with electronic visual poems which represent the European avant-garde movements of the early twentieth century and the post-concretists movements in Brazil, more precisely Neoconcretism and and Process Poetry. The corpus is made up by some electronics poetic experiences created by Erthos Albino de Souza, Fernando Nabais, Giselle Beiguelman, and Rui Torres.
