Based on a literary study, this essay is an attempt to understand Charles Maurras’ poetical discourse within the framework of the extensive, polemical, critical and philosophical narrative of his author, from the end of the nineteenth century until his final custody in Riom. Our work tries to shed light on all the shapes and goals of Charles Maurras’ poetry at all the moments of the author’s intellectual history and through all his poetical writings. Thanks to this comprehensive approach, this study shows the fundamental role of intellectual and esthetical tradition in maurrassism and its strategic issues in the maurrassian’s iconographic depictions. It also highlights Maurras’ extraordinary capacity to fashioned an intellectually coherent and imposing structure of ideas, presenting the linkages between his poetical writings and his political doctrine. In particular, the prophetical dimension of his poetry suggests rising the political doctrine to the level of transcendence, above the mundane polemics of daily journalistic life. Finally, and excluding any partisan approach, this work tries to define what the Maurrassian aesthetics is, from the narrow perspective of literary aesthetics. This manuscript therefore endeavours to look deeper into the key questions that have remained unsolved about Maurras’ poetry: the content and unity of his neo-classicism, the ambivalences of its aesthetics, the value of the last mystical conversion. It attempts to offer a better understanding of Charles Maurras’ intellectual structures, their logics and paradoxes, relying primarily on its literary work.
