Summary/Abstract: For Valéry, writing is a permanent struggle to hinder the unleashing of his intimate effusions. His materialist aesthetic is a palliative against the sporadic resurrections of his former lyricism provoked by his intimate crises. His last writings, notably his Faust, are a questioning of this denial.
