NOBRE, Ricardo. The poetics of orpheus in dispersão , by Mário de Sá-Carneiro. Diacrítica [online]. 2015, vol.29, n.3, pp.66-79. ISSN 0807-8967.

The poems that constitute Dispersão have been studied as an expedition undertaken by a subject searching himself and his work as a masterpiece; at a mythical and symbolic level, this demand was tested by David Mourão-Ferreira, who saw it as an Icarus' attempt to achieve the impossible, the result being a fall into the abyss. However, the descending movement and the insistent demand allow the understanding of a divided subject that follows the main features of Orpheus' myth: the continuing rescue of Eurydice and her constant loss in the shadows do not allow the subject to become king of himself (this idea is coherent with the etymology of dispersion). This study presents, therefore, a close reading of the poems of Mário de Sá-Carneiro's Dispersão, suggesting an interpretation of Orpheus-Poet in search of Eurydice-Poetry lost in the shadows of himself, struggling for materialization.
