What is Amor e modernidade na lírica de Drummond about?

## Abstract The analysis of four poems written by the Brazilian poet Carlos Drummond de Andrade allows different approaches to the love theme in the initial phase of his poetry. The poet’s oscillations between the collective and the individual perspectives also appear in the love poems: at first, traditional forms of relationships are confronted with the new experiences that the big city and the newly established industry in Brazilian society provide. In this context, the amorous incompleteness, a thoughtful subject to the universal literary tradition, gains new contours, and the mismatched love becomes the only possible love experience. In a second move, Drummond leaves aside these proper individual conflicts and dilutes his longings of completeness in a project of social transformation, whose presupposition is the love in the form of friendship, called philia.
