Poetry and tongue: theoretical and didactic aspects

Abstract

This delivery returns to the somewhat complicated history of the Pratic and Poetry magazine, formerly at the heart of its political and didactic project to renovate French education. However, over time, the numbers devoted to poetry, or even better integrating it into its issues (syntax, semantic, lexicology, gender, narrative, oral, punctuation, etc.) have become rare and increasingly pessimistic. Because poetry, transgender, trans-regime (linguistic) and perhaps transdisciplinary, can have a threefold effect on language and teaching, stimulation, magnifying and questioning. Poets and linguists return here to the sons that had been left to frighten, despite the work on Saussure poetry, incorporated into a less structural lesson, and more recently by Benveniste, Coseriu (not forgetting those of Jakobson and Meschonnic), which show us that there is indeed a European and French-speaking tradition of linking poetry and language theories — largely reassured by Humboldt and Mallarmé in the 19th century — which must be made a success, far from a poetic gap theory, which excludes poetry from French language and teaching. Can FLM and FLE teachers (supported by poets), with their textbooks, types of activities and professional gestures, remain behind, at a time when cognitive psychology, the theories of subjective literary reception, empirical and consumerist communication and work ergonomics seem to occupy the entire scientific and professional space, and lead the hands of politics? On the contrary, it is the right time when poetry, linguists and ecology of learning must be invited to public debate to ensure that singular imaginations, collective imaginations, literary and textual configurations on the one hand, and thought-out reflexivity on the other’s language and works support, complement or contradict the previous ones in the “Grand Combat” of tomorrow — that of Michaux and of us all — of the fight against school failure and social marginalisation, and for democratic humanisation still to be rebuilt. Tomorrow, once again, poetry will be able to respond to: present!
