Abstract

This short essay proposes to compare the images of the sea, the void and the game in the poems Para o leitor ler de/vagar by Herberto Helder (1930-2015) and Un coup de dés jamais n'abolira le Hasard by Stéphane Mallarmé (1842-1898). In addition to the semantic field that creates a kind of silence in poems, we are interested in understand how this silence acts in the structure of the poems and its possible meanings. We support our analysis in the critical works of Martelo (2010) and Campos (2002), to justify our interpretations.
