Abstract
- The present study focuses on the introduction of a new mythology of poetic modernism by means of colors and words. If desacralization, as a symptom of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, led to what Jean- Luc Nancy defines as "the interrupted myth", Mallarmé and the Impressionists, and then Sensationism (Fernando Pessoa), the English Imagists (Ezra Pound), Futurism, Abstractionism, Expressionism, Suprematism, regained and imposed new artistic codes, new myths in which colour became the support, the instrument and the universal Cratylean language.
