- Abstract
In the era of digital revolution, identities and discourses are growingly more impermanent, in a liquidity similar to that of the crystal screens of technological devices. Such devices mediate a significant share of the encounters between readers and literary texts nowadays. In order to question the impacts of the growing cultural and discursive liquefaction on contemporary poetry, we herein analyze the digital poem Mar de Sophia, by Rui Torres. By mixing multimedia resources and structures from modern poetry, Torres revisits poems by Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen, which were transposed into the digital medium and transcreated by intertextual procedures of cutting, pasting and hybridization. We aim to understand how semiotic elements from texts by Andresen are revisited in an aesthetics of leeway and liquidity in the software-poem by Rui Torres. Such software sets Andresen's phrases adrift on the screen, so that the poetic sign floats the same way one surfs in the cyberspace. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
