Pascal Boulanger's 'Le lierre la foudre' Published by Corlevour

Pascal Boulanger's poetry collection 'Le lierre la foudre' has been published by Éditions Corlevour. The work deepens themes from his earlier collection 'Tacite' (Flammarion, 2001), exploring history as a repetition of hell and the anthropological foundation of society based on a common crime. Boulanger critiques modernity's regression into maternal patronage and paganism, while affirming love as a disinterested game that escapes alienation. The collection is structured as a fresco of diffracted poems, each with its own title and often a dedication, paying homage to figures such as Marcelin Pleynet, Pierre Legendre, Jacques Henric, Claude Minière, and Philippe Muray. Boulanger engages with theological re-readings, drawing on Chestov and Kierkegaard to assert a Christic permanence against the prevailing Greek and Heideggerian poetic context. The book culminates in a final poem titled 'Prophétie,' which envisions a world reborn through prophetic speech. Corlevour's focus on Christian themes aligns with this publication.
