Description

PAUL VERLAINE By Stefan Zweig Edited by Andrew Jary Paul Verlaine is one of the great lyrical French poets. This study by Stefan Zweig offers a survey of his poetry and a biography, including his famous friendship with Arthur Rimbaud. Paul Verlaine (1844-1896) is one of the great 19th century French poets, part of the group that included Charles Baudelaire, Lautr�amont, G�rard de Nerval and of course Arthur Rimbaud. Many of Verlaine's most significant poems are collected in this book, and Verlaine emerges as a highly accomplished artist, with a lyrical rhyming style that's wholly his own (and it sounds particularly beautiful in French - Verlaine is tricky to translate). This edition of Stefan Zweig's monograph includes a selection of Paul Verlaine's best-known poems, including 'Poetic Art', 'Claire de Lune', 'It's Raining In My Heart', 'C'est l'extase langoureuse' and 'Spleen'. With the French text opposite the English translations. Illustrated. 112pp. www.crmoon.com
