Abstract: This study examines the question of silence in the “Palestinian poems” of Lorand Gaspar, particularly in the texts of Judée. It focuses more specifically on how the poet seeks to restore the essence of the land of Palestine by interrogating both its history and geography in the context of war. Lorand Gaspar highlights the plight of victims, particularly children, who, faced with the unspeakable, often find themselves deprived of any form of speech, subjected to a phenomenon of silencing that reflects both their powerlessness and their resilience. Finally, the study explores the condition of a poet's voice in a context of war, as the Palestinian poems of Lorand Gaspar remain largely understudied and are likely marginalized by literary criticism, despite their universal significance.
