Abstract

Application of ‌‌Bachelard’s Poetic theory of space In The Baron in the Trees by Italo Calvino and Alchemist by Paulo Coelho

Abstract
Installed in space, the man begins the spiritual reconstruction of the space for spiritual interaction with that place. As he feels lonely, he seeks in a corner and divides his loneliness with space; also, recalling his memories, he breaks the geometric borders. Citing a phenomenological approach through intimate sites of human life, Gaston Bachelard represents his specific point of view about the topoanalysis. Because the lives of the protagonists of Italo Calvino and Paulo Coelho in The Baron in the Trees and The Alchemist are closely related to the space, we came to analyze, with point of view of Bachelard, the topoanalyse in these two works. The mentioned spaces in these works are like phenomena and earn their identity when they intermingle with the consciousness of the human. In this article, we will try to appear the application of Bachelard’s Poetic theory of space in The Alchemist by Coelho and The Baron in the Trees by Calvino to understand more about space in a phenomenological sense. Then, we will decipher how Calvino and Coelho will illustrate through the protagonists of their stories and crossing the outer worlds, the richness of the purest inner experiences arising from the imagination of Bachelard.
