“Os perfumes, as cores e os sons se correspondem”: Benveniste e a busca pela imagem criativa em Baudelaire

In 1992, Émile Benveniste’s manuscripts about poetic language were disclosed and generated what today is known as Baudelaire Dossier. This study aims to verify how Benveniste’s writing in the dossier can be delineated as a semiological study of a work. The corpus are 159 folios that let you see terms and procedures ruminated on the writing of Benveniste. The results point out that the particularity and singularity of Baudelaire’s discourse are due to both the image of the mirror, which engenders other creative images. The correspondence is thus the principle structuring Baudelaire’s poetic universe.
