This thesis examines, using a comparative approch, paul claudel's poetic output of japanese influence. A chronological method has been chosen, in order to show the successive stages in claudel's poetic evolution, both in his personal reflection and in his relationship with the far east. From the specular discourse of poemes au verso de sainte genevieve to the typographical attempt of le vieillard sur le mont omi, the development of claudelian poetics in japan takes the path of a search for poetic absoluteness to the fan-poems, coming from the idea of creative breath ('souffle'), connected with the art of painting. We will then consider cent phrases pour eventails, true accomplishment of claudelian poetic work in japan in its visualartistic aspect in connection with the art of calligraphy, on the one hand, and with japanese haiku poetry tradition on the other. After a short examination of his later traslating work, this study will end with conclusions which once again take up the idea of the development of a 'total' poetry, and which suggest a privileged relationship of poetical work with slence.
