Abstract: This study provides an analysis of Lorand Gaspar’s sequence of poems “Pierre” through the notion of enactive contemplation. The purpose of the paper is to investigate the forms of knowledge that are encoded in Lorand Gaspar’s literary language and to offer a comprehensive account of the ways in which poetic language expresses the perception of the real world and of the conceived-mental world through a philological analysis. From a theoretical point of view, the study is primordially grounded on phenomenological principles and on the cognitive science’s notion of enaction which allow to consider the poem as an interactive process rather than as a finished object, although it also refers to various tools of geopoetics and lyric theory in order to provide an argumentation of what poetic contemplation entails. The scope of the study is focused on the series “Pierre” but it can, nevertheless, be extrapolated to Gaspar’s poetics as a whole.
