Abstract

The relations between poetry and the other arts are extremely complex at least for two reasons: in the first place because they are relations that have historically been transformed; in the second place because the arts tend to become more and more hybrid since the advent of the computer as a metamedia. Taking a semiotic point of view on these questions, this article aims at mapping some of the relations between poetry and the other arts with special attention to the affinities between poetry and music in their diverse facets. Then the relations between poetry and the visual arts are explored to end in new reflections which the new media are demanding from us.
