Abstract

The compilation of essays A republican speech. Essays on poetry brings together a selection of critical approaches to poetry and poetics written by the Spanish author Miguel Casado. The claim that poetry consists of an act of reflection with a political sense, that freely manifests what it is thought or felt, sets the starting point for a travel across his readings: Antonio Machado, Luigi Nono, Roberto Bolaño, César Vallejo, Paul Celan, Leopoldo María Panero, Mahmud Darwish, Bernard Noël and Francis Ponge. This book also tries to expand some aspects of literary theory that make the volume an instrument for an understanding of modern poetry, as the present review confirms.
