This article is aimed at understanding, through the analysis of the poem “Campo, chinês e sono”, from A rosa do povo (1945), how Carlos Drummond de Andrade answers, critically and creatively, to João Cabral de Melo Neto’s the compositions in the book Pedra do sono, guided by the attempt to unsubjectify and forget the self. To that end, the text uses the correspondence between the authors and theoretical formulations of Cabral himself. The poetic and political answer given by Drummond in “Campo, chinês e sono”, in which one may foresee, in a utopian fashion, the building of a fair and emancipated society, allow us to also rethink the supposed intransitivity of some of the hermetic poems in A rosa do povo.
