Abstract

Several aspects of the work La Mémoire et la Main, fruit of the collaboration between Edmond Jabès and Eduardo Chillida are the object of our study. I aim to analyze the process of its editions, from the publication of the first poem in Orange Export Ltd. to the appearance of a second edition in 1987 published by Fata Morgana with a simplified reproduction of the etchings. Basing my findings primarily on the 1986 edition, I examine the format (paper, binding) and the mise en page (typography, page layout, etc.), with a particular analytical emphasis on the illustrations. I attempt to locate the connections between the domain of the etchings and the content of the text so as to consider the aesthetic functionality of the diverse elements of the book and their connections with one another.
