| description | The study focuses on some points of the poetics used by Lucretius in the De rerum natura to express the living. The didactic mission claimed by the poet indeed requires the elaboration of a language of a vivid expressiveness and a flawless clarity to transmit the Epicurean doctrine. This is a difficult task when it comes to the birth of the living, which is conceived from inanimate atoms. We examine here the place held by the physiological paradigm through two recurrent motifs on this subject, birth and fluidity. Lucretius proves to be a virtuoso, knowing how to combine all sorts of mechanisms of language and poetic music in order to mobilize the mind of his reader. Building his poetics, he never dissociates his work from the fundamental principles of the doctrine he transmits: such as the concilium and the clinamen. We discover a re-evaluation of the didactic word, where the literary memory constitutes more than an intertext but becomes the material to be recomposed, even inflected, for the benefit of the dogma expounded and in close coherence with it. |

El estudio se centra en algunos puntos de la poética implementada por Lucrecia en el De rerum natura para expresar lo vivo. La misión didáctica reivindicada por el poeta requiere el desarrollo de un lenguaje de expresividad viva y claridad impecable para transmitir la doctrina epicúrea. El objetivo es difícil cuando se trata del nacimiento de los vivos, concebidos a partir de átomos inanimados. Examinamos aquí el lugar que ocupa el paradigma fisiológico a través de dos motivos recurrentes sobre este tema, el nacimiento y la fluidez. Lucrecia demuestra ser una virtuosa, sabiendo combinar todo tipo de mecanismos del lenguaje y la música poética para movilizar la mente de su lector en un enfoque nunca disociado de los principios fundamentales de la doctrina que transmite: como el concilium y el clinamen. Descubrimos una reevaluación de la palabra didáctica, donde la memoria literaria constituye más que un intertexto sino que se convierte en el material a recompuesto, incluso a ser influenciado a favor del dogma expuesto y en estrecha coherencia con él. L’étude porte sur quelques points de la poétique mise en œuvre par Lucrèce dans le De rerum natura pour exprimer le vivant. La mission didactique revendiquée par le poète requiert en effet l’élaboration d’un langage d’une vive expressivité et d’une clarté sans faille pour transmettre la doctrine épicurienne. L’objectif s’avère difficile s’agissant de la naissance du vivant, conçue à partir d’atomes inanimés. On examine ici la place tenue par le paradigme physiologique à travers deux motifs récurrents sur ce sujet, la naissance et la fluidité. Lucrèce s’y révèle virtuose, sachant combiner toutes sortes de mécanismes du langage et de la musique poétique pour mobiliser l’esprit de son lecteur dans une démarche jamais dissociée des principes fondamentaux de la doctrine qu’il transmet : tels le concilium et le clinamen. On y découvre une réévaluation de la parole didactique, où la mémoire littéraire constitue plus qu’un intertexte mais devenant le matériau à recomposer, voire à infléchir au profit du dogme exposé et en cohérence étroite avec lui.
