| Summary: | Fifty years after Alejandra Pizarnik’s death (1936-1972), the time has come to question the immunity of certain biographical discourses regarding this author. The new materials that we have been able to access over the past twenty years (journals, unpublished poems and prose…) not only enable new readings of her work but also encourage the nuancing of certain discourses stemming from the first reception of her work. By using some of these “new” documents as starting point, I will try to cast a new light on Pizarnik’s ties with Paris: a relation that is much more ambiguous and complex than we tend to imagine. I will start by considering her second trip to Paris: a very brief and usually overlooked stay that took place in March 1969; I will then analyze some signs of both her real and imaginary connection to the city’s geography and then finish with some considerations of the way in which the city appears inevitably associated with both French language and literature. |
