Abstract
The essay reads and re-evaluates Denise Levertov's poetry on the Vietnam War, including Relearning the Alphabet (1970), To Stay Alive (1971) and Footprints (1972). Levertov theorizes how the body, however inscribed by the writing of the culture, shares a certain universality of flesh, and it can be used to locate oneself and to find the meaning of another in oneself.With reference to Charles Olson and the Black Mountain poets, the essay, then, explores how Levertov attends to the lost fact of the body, forms that read, hear, and touch the social and historical fibre in the apparently isolated, eternal presence. Levertov is interested in the possibility of compassion, intimacy, and human suffering, as she envisions, for example, the body of the Vietnamese child connected to her psyche and her body. With an acute sense of worldliness and without accepting a clear division between the public and the private, Levertov's poetry and poetics patiently seek an embodied self and an open, flexible vision of language. Cet essai propose une relecture et une r��valuation de la po�sie de Denise Levertov sur la guerre du Vietnam, y compris Relearning the Alphabet (1970), To Stay Alive (1971) et Footprints (1972). Levertov postule que le corps, peu importe jusqu'o� il est marqu� par la culture, partage une certaine universit� de la chair, et que cette universalit� peut �tre utilis�e aussi bien pour se situer soi-m�me que pour comprendre la part que joue l'autre. S'inspirant � Charles Olson et aux po�tes de Black Mountain, cet essai explore donc les fa�ons dont Levertov r�cup�re l'id�e du corps, des formes qui per�oivent, �coutent et touchent du doigt la fibre sociale et historique de ceux qui sont apparemment isol�s. Levertov s'int�resse � la compassion, � l'intimit� et � la souffrance humaine, imaginant, par exemple, le corps d'un enfant vietnamien toujours attach� aussi bien � son corps qu'� sa psych�. Dot�e d'un grand sentiment d'attachement aux biens de ce monde, sans pour autant accepter une s�paration nette entre la sph�re publique et la sph�re priv�e, la po�sie et la po�tique de Levertov est une qu�te de l'�tre corporel et d'une vision flexible ouverte du langage.
