Abstract

The metaphysical aura in Solombra, Cecilia Meireles’ work published in 1963, shows since its epigraph, a possibility of a reading supported by some ideas of Martin Heidegger, a German philosopher. The writing’s poetic allows the dialogue with the transcendent, almost a mystical relationship that reveals, at the same time, the entire philosophical and existential problematic, theme for the ceciliana literary creation as well as the desire for proximity to the Being/absolute. The poet is between gods and men and allows the clearing of truth – aletheia.
