Déconstruction des modèles et ironie littéraire : quelques remarques sur l’effet de distanciation dans la poésie d’Apollinaire

In his poetry Apollinaire uses different registers and literary genres. With a kind of freedom he distances himself from those models. All this also happens in relation to the autobiographical material of some poems. This process of distancing is done through a practice of irony that is linked to his creative imagination. His irony is therefore not only a simple defense mechanism against certain subjects but above all a poetic strategy that aims to preserve the contradiction of the subject and the ambivalence in front of his personal history and some aspects of reality.
