Turning to authorized and unauthorized investments of public space, performances, uses of ephemeral supports and other departures from the framework, various interventions will question the stakes of forms of writing deployed outside the book and their effects on representations of poetic practice.Today's theme: Poetry in the streetThe acclimatization of poetry to advertising communication has contributed to reinforcing its urban inscription, so that today it frequently appears on the walls of our cities, often through fragmentary quotations and isolated verses. These writings are sometimes the result of commissions and are therefore perfectly authorized, but they can also be the product of wild production: what are the preferred forms in such cases, and how can they be archived? From the enunciation of these urban poems to their revival on social networks, this first session of the OLSa seminar will be an opportunity to examine the modes of emergence, circulation and conservation of wild literatures.
