In the fifty text fragments that compose Galáxias, by Haroldo de Campos, the dominance of the cogito is constantly broken. In this way, the reader’s attention, generally inclined to turn only to the semantic layer of the text, to look for what the text means, is led to perceive there also the pulse of a living materiality. If the word is not just a vehicle for the message, the body of the book is not merely a support for the texts, but an important element for the production of meaning. With a strange graphic design, could Haroldo’s work be considered an artist’s book? This is what this article investigates.
