  • French Individualist Poetry 1686-1760

    An Anthology

    Edited by Robert Finch, Eugène Joliat ...
    Series series Heritage
    This anthology has a double aim: to present a body of poetry, none of it easily available, some of it never before reproduced, and to point up a particular trend, until now nearly lost sight of in the maze of generalizations about eighteenth-century French poetry. This trend, called individualist, in contradistinction to the academic and universalist trends of the century, has been chosen since it ... Read more

    Individualism in French Poetry, 1686-1760

    by Robert Finch ...
    Series series Heritage
    It has long been the custom to condemn eighteenth-century French poetry outright as generally unworthy of attention. However, in keeping with a recent change of attitude towards this vast and diverse body of literature, Professor Finch here undertakes to isolate a certain group of poets, belonging to the first half of the century, who may appropriately be called individualistes and who are in ...

  • Representative French Poetry (Second Edition)

    Edited by Victor E Graham ...
    Series series Heritage
    The making of a reasonably comprehensive anthology which is intended to do more than reflect the personal literary tastes of the anthologists is not an easy task, but is certainly an exciting and challenging one. It is important, of course, if it is to have coherence and validity, that its audience be reasonably well defined and kept in mind as the selection proceeds. The anthology offered by ... Read more

Une technique vieille comme le monde mais qui reste aujourd’hui encore largement méconnue. A mi-chemin entre l’éveil et le sommeil, l’hypnose est un état modifié de conscience, à l ... Read more

  • Collected Poems and Other Verse

    Series series Oxford World's Classics
    'sense too definite cancels your indistinct literature' Stéphane Mallarmé was the most radically innovative of nineteenth-century poets. His writings, with their richly sensuous texture and air of slyly intangible mystery, perplexed or outraged many early readers; yet no writer has more profoundly influenced the course of modern poetry - in English as well as in French. In both form and content, ... Read more

    Madame, Peu faite au langage que l’on tient aux Rois, je n’emploierai point l’adulation des Courtisans pour vous faire hommage de cette singulière production. Mon but, Madame, est de vous parler franchement ; je n’ai pas attendu pour m’exprimer ainsi, l’époque de la Liberté ; je me suis montrée avec la même énergie dans un temps où l’aveuglement des Despotes punissait une si noble audace.
