Sentiments of the obscene body in the poetry of James Sacré

Emma Curty

Abstract

This article examines the representation of the obscene body in the poetry of James Sacré, a major figure of the new lyricism in contemporary French poetry. This article aims to highlight the main dynamics of an obscene body that obey less a transgression of moral or linguistic decency than a will to grasp the ambiguity of desires, the modesty of intimacy and the connections with space-time
as accurately as possible.
