Écrire « au nom de l’Abeille, du Papillon et de la Brise » : figures animalières et paysagères dans les écrits d’Emily Dickinson.
Abstract
The article aims at reading some of Emily Dickinson’s texts through the prism of contemporary anthropology, philosophy (Latour, Descola, Deleuze-Guattari, Jullien, Meillassoux, Haraway, Tsing) and landscape theory (Berque) to present how Dickinson creates animal figures to achieve and express a community of experience in the environment. The article studies how animal figures are introduced in a few early poems and in the beginning of the first fascicle to encompass their relating to XIXth context and to the poetic project to write from within the tradition of lyricism while transforming traditional animal tropes, thanks to the circulation of voices and the passing of the poetic wording (and worlding) to relaying animal and other landscape figures.
