Mathieu Benezet

Mathieu Bénézet (7 February 1946[1] in Perpignan, Pyrénées-Orientales, – 12 July 2013[2] in Paris) was a French writer and poet.

Biography

Writer

Bénézet's literary work is protean. Recognized primarily as one of the most important poets of his generation, he is also the author of numerous essays, texts in prose (mixing creation and reflections) and novels. He questions every discipline he invests. He also develops elegiac, lyrical forms, short or long poems, the dramatic poem, and so on. Never didactic (rather upsetting because upset), his poetry is crossed by his aesthetic or philosophical reflections.

Marqued, as a young man, by his meeting with André Breton and Louis Aragon, his work attempts a synthesis between their respective works. Deeply singular, this work will offer from his first books a new way. his influence will be considerable as it will play a central role in the 70s and 80s with poets such as Jacques Dupin or Anne-Marie Albiach. His love of poetry commanded his advances in his fields and his multiple support manifested as editor and essayist as well as man of radio.

In 2013, he was awarded the Grand prix de poésie de l'Académie française [fr] for his life achievement in poetry.

Editor and radio personality

Bénézet created several magazines such as Empreintes (1963–1965), Première Livraison (with Philippe Lacoue-Labarthe) and Digraphe [fr] (from 1976 to 1981, with Jean Ristat).

He was an éditor at Flammarion, Éditions Seghers [] and Comp'Act [fr].

In addition he directed several programs on France Culture, including Entre-revues and, until 2009, Reconnaissance à....
