Abstract
The aim of this paper is to initiate an approximation to the figure of the air in André du Bouchet’s Air. In this collection of poems, this element has a double meaning for the lyric I: one more basic, associated to its condition of agent, and other one which is built by this subjectivity in relation to the perceptual, motor and kinaesthetic impressions that he collects from it and that turned the air into a space. In this way, « air » is config-ured as a total synonym of « landscape », the theme par excellence in the French poet’s work. The subject does not look for being part of it but for appropriating it to himself by means of a series of cognitive operations linked to his movement and perception that constantly revitalize it.
