Paul Celan : le rossignol bègue. Un changement de perspectives dans la poésie

Abstract

This paper aims to examine how the germanophile environment in which Paul Celan was born and its destruction by the Shoah, prompted him to write poetic works that build on their aporetic nature. Celan transformed lyric poetry, whose model was the song of the nightingale, by moving to that of the stutterer, for whom a song remains a healing utopia.
