'Poetry will no longer keep in time with action; it will be ahead of it.'Arthur RimbaudThe active and colourful lives of the poets of nineteenth-century France are reflected in the diversity and vibrancy of their works. At once sacred and profane, passionate and satirical, these remarkable and innovative poems explore the complexities of human emotion and ponder the great questionsof religion and art. They form as rich a body of work as any one age and language has ever produced.This unique anthology includes generous selections from the six nineteenth-century French poets most often read in the English-speaking world today: Lamartine, Hugo, Baudelaire, Verlaine, Rimbaud, and Mallarme. Modern translations are printed opposite the original French verse, and the editioncontains over a thousand lines of poetry never previously translated into English.
