Abstract

The paper analyzes the poem by Augusto de Campos and by identifying their missive relationships (ZILBERBERG, 2006) it is pointed out, by the theme developed in the poem, a mythical dialectic (GREIMAS, 1975), which sets out a commonplace of literature and Western philosophy: sense vs. sensibility, as well as a metalinguistic dialectics, which focuses on the values of the concretist vanguard. Although the poem was published after the end of the literary movement, there is concern about the values brought by Noigandres, because the text keeps the discussion on construction and subjectivity in poetry. This content is manifested in the expression plan by the topological and chromatic categories (FLOCH, 1985) corroborating the significance of the visual poem. Such analysis is the beginning of a larger work on the poetry of Augusto de Campos, in which semiotics is an instrument to develop a more concrete theory on this Brazilian vanguard.
