Abstract EN:
Faced to a deceitful universe, musset reacts by setting up the oult of truth which also means the necessity of transparency. But deceit is too widespread for playing and masquerading to do anything but add to it ; and the constant mediations interfering with language make it impossible to reach a transparent language that would convey a meaning beyond words. Musset will try to compensate for the impossibility to reach an authentic lyrical language by practicing such poetical irony as evidenced in fantasio.
Abstract FR:
Face a un univers mensonger, musset oppose le culte de la verite qui est aussi exigence de transparence. Le jeu et les masques ne font qu'ajouter au mensonge generalise; de meme les incessantes mediations du langage rendent impossible le reve d'une langue de la transparence qui serait aussi celle de l'indicible. Musset cherchera un substitut a ce lyrisme authentique dans l'ironie poetique dont fantasio pourrait etre l'illustration.
