This collection illuminates the uniquely fascinating era between 1820 and 1950
in French poetry - a time in which diverse aesthetic ideas conflicted and
converged as poetic forms evolved at an astonishing pace. It includes generous
selections from all the established giants - among them Baudelaire, Verlaine,
Rimbaud and Breton - as well as works from a wide variety of less well-known
poets such as Claudel and Cendrars, whose innovations proved vital to the
progress of poetry in France. The significant literary schools of the time are
also represented in sections focusing on such movements as Romanticism,
Symbolism, Cubism and Surrealism. Eloquent and inspirational, this rich and
exhilarating anthology reveals an era of exceptional vitality.
