Abstract: The singular charm of Nervalian lyricism results from its transgenericity, understood as a hybridizing gesture and a critical movement, blurring enunciative, generic and artistic references. Ethical variations and textual fragmentation destabilize the lyrical pact, modifying the focal points of communication and affective circulation. Gérard de Nerval integrates a poetic Otherness into his work that diffracts its meaning, substituting a constantly renewed dynamic for the frozen expression of feelings.
