La Marginalité Comme Stratégie Poétique et Politique: Insoumission, Illisibilité et Sabotage Symbolique Chez François Villon et Denis Vanier
摘要
This article offers a comparative reading of François Villon and Denis Vanier, two emblematic figures of poetic marginality. Through a transhistorical and sociopoetic approach, it explores how dissent becomes a political device expressed through language, form, and embodiment. Villon subverts testamentary codes to stage a disgraced and unreadable subjectivity, while Vanier dismantles literary conventions through typographic violence and obscene excess. Drawing from theories of transgression, illegibility, and symbolic sabotage, this study redefines marginality not as exclusion but as a strategy of aesthetic and political resistance. By confronting these two poetics of the edge, the article unveils a memory of dissent where poetry disrupts, unsettles, and resists normalization. Villon and Vanier demonstrate that poetry survives by exceeding norms, challenging readability, and reclaiming the right to disturb. Their marginality is not an accident, it is a performative gesture, a refusal to belong, and a radical reconfiguration of what poetic language can do.
