About the author
Paul Verlaine
777 books414 followersPaul-Marie Verlaine was a French poet associated with the Symbolist movement. He is considered one of the greatest representatives of the fin de siècle in international and French poetry.
Despite Rimbaud admiring his poetry, these poets had a stormy affair which led to Verlaine's incarceration after shooting Rimbaud. This incident indirectly preceded his re-conversion to Roman Catholicism.
Verlaine's last years were particularly marked by alcoholism, drug addiction and poverty.
His poems have inspired many composers, such as Chopin, Fauré and Poldowski.
Art Poétique describes his decadent style and alludes to the relevance of nuances and veils in poetry.

Buena antología para conocer la obra de Verlaine de forma general, tiene como particular que su traductor Teodoro Sáez Hermosilla realizó una tesis doctoral sobre las traducciones de Verlaine, por lo que en el volumen pone especial atención al asunto cuando apunta en notas el porqué de la elección de un término y no otro, o su preferencia por determinadas sintaxis para ser más fiel al ritmo original.
