O corpo, a violência e a liberdade em alguns poemas de Cesariny

Abstract

The aim of this study is to reflect on the senses of the body, violence and freedom in some poems in the book Pena Capital, by Mario Cesariny. For this, we start by reading Maria de Fátima Marinho’s thesis on surrealism in Portugal and Jaime Ginzburg’s text on Adorno and poetry in dark times. The poems of Cesariny’s quoted book seem to propose that the freedom of the body, language and literary forms works as an attempt to overcome the political curtailment in Portugal during the Estado Novo.
