Abstract
Being one of the best-known poets of the still-alive vanguard generation in Catalonia because of his
poignant poems recitations, in his book Comenęament dels comenęaments i ocasió de les ocasions
(Beginning o f Beginnigs and Occasion o f Occasions) Enric Casassas rebuilds a medieval composition,
the in-baroque-times-developed sextina, which takes the form of a poem entitled “Sextina”. The author
introduces a set of new elements giving the poem a metapoetics dimension. At the same time, its verses
describe a subtle formal incursion into the ideological confrontation of some Catalan literary
movements. It concludes with a romanticism and vanguard antibourgeois deal. In that frame, the poem
is analysed from the point of view of three different approaches: A versified reconsideration of some
Aristotelian concepts, desire as an unreachable Freudian lack and the performance of sexual voice
playing the role of an actual poetry-producing power.
