Looking for answers to this question, the author attempts to recount briefly the history of the changing relationship between science and poetry. Several aspects which link science and poetry such as the creation process, the poetical popularization of science which contributes to our constantly renewed vision of the world and the political commitment of both scientists and poets, are addressed. In conclusion the author underlines the probable causes of the distance between science and poetry and particulary points at the reactions and hopes that each discipline generates.}}
