Feminine Irony in the Religious Poetry of Gwyneth Lewis by Daniel SZABO

“…L’ironie chez Gwyneth Lewis, première “National Poet” du Pays de Galles, est surprenante car elle est utilisée principalement en rapport à, ou même à l’encontre de, semble-t-il, de la religion comme pour mettre une distance avec le lecteur, avec le critique mais surtout une distance entre le poète et Dieu. Pourtant Lewis le confesse, elle se considère bien comme un (e) poète religieux mais son ironie lui permet de s’affirmer en tant que poète travaillant sur et avec les mots tout en évitant tout sentimentalisme et en anticipant les critiques. …”
