Description

The French Symbolist Poetry, 50th Anniversary Edition offers a unique insight into this influential movement. Characterised by their use of oblique suggestions and evocation, the poets in this collection lean away from overt statement, instead embracing intuition and non-rational perception. With bilingual text presented side-by-side, this edition brings together forty carefully selected poems that showcase the range and diversity of the Symbolist movement. From the early beginnings of Nerval and Baudelaire to the technical brilliance of Valéry, who died as recently as 1945, this collection provides a generous sampling of the movement's best work. Illuminating notes and an introduction add context and depth to this bilingual edition, making it an ideal choice for those seeking to understand the French Symbolist Poetry.
