Abstract

This essay is intended to procede with a theoretical reflection on the concept of modulation in the work of art, poetry acting as its conducting element. The paper title, "Stéphane Mallarmé, Paul Valéry: an abstract thought" is justified for two reasons. Firstly, because the two French poets act as fundamental choices for the achievement of that which is developed along the work; secondly, because the concept of modulation is intimately connected with what Valéry calls "abstract thinking" in an important essay published in Variété.
