Abstract

We find hendecasyllables integrated into both prose texts and free verse. What we here call “dislocated hendecasyllables” are those that are fragmented so as to form part of more than one verse or that are the sum of several short verses. The typology is diverse. We have even identified dislocated hendecasyllables that have a verse in common. Although this metrical structure does not adapt to the traditional definitions of verse as a rhythmic unit located between two pauses and integrated in a series (of verses), it offers another vision of signifiers and the signified.
