Description
- Abstract:
- In Cecília Meireles's poetry we see the construction of a self-reflexive oeuvre in which the lived dream and the dreamt life inermingle, just as words and silence do. Continually reiterated, "translucent wall," "crystal waters," "mirrors," and "silver fish" are memories that her poetry shatters and reworks into new hypotheses that are increasingly dense.
- Constrói-se na poesia de Cecília Meireles uma obra auto-reflexiva em que o sonho vivido e a vida sonhada se interpenetram, bem como a palavra e o silêncio. Sempre reiterados, "translúcida muralha", "águas de cristal", "espelhos" e "peixes de prata" são memórias que a sua poesia estilhaça e ramifica em novas hipóteses, cada vez mais densas.
