## Description

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.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ La poesie .. Awesome superb mind work
*by  on Reviewed in India 26 December 2019*

Wonderful repository of the collections of french poets which will engage you to the best poets from all over the france. Most importantly, ree s fluent and meritorious selection of the poets according to a fine order will help you be familiar with the movements and themes which all had come one after another in 18th and 20th century france. Superb work.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ LOVED IT
*by  on Reviewed in India 10 July 2017*

I definitely loved it. Although more of the poems are written from a lover's point of view, there's absolutely no dispute that the poems will help in building up vocabulary. Also contains a noticeable literature from the romantic era.As from a french student's perspective, I found the poems well explained and translated (which are over 300).tres magnifique.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good
*by  on Reviewed in India 24 July 2021*

Poem collection is good but the paper quality is poor (looks like printed on lowest quality recycled paper)
