Der lyrische Triebtäter André Pieyre de Mandiargues Gewalt und Erotik im Gedichtband L’Âge de craie
(2017)
The surrealists are not the only influence on the literary efforts of André Pieyre de Mandiargues – but it’s this influence that makes his oeuvre capable for an analysis based on Freudian theories. This way of an analysis is even more appropriate knowing that two of Mandiargues’ main and favourite themes – the eroticism and the violence – coincide with the Freudian life and destruction drive. Analysing the two poems Les filles des gobes and Les ruines de l’amour from the volume of poems L’Âge de craie, it’s these two paradigms that are clearly recognizable: Mandiargues’ symbolism reveals the duality of the domination by desires.
