Modern French poetry is unique in the boldness and creativity of
its experiments in form and genre, from classical verse to vers
libre, from calligrammes to prose poems and poesie sonore. This
anthology includes 32 poems by French and francophone poets, each
followed by an accessibly written, detailed commentary. The
different approaches adopted in the close readings by specialists
in their field reflect the major trends in current literary
criticism and theory. A foreword by one of France's foremost poets,
Yves Bonnefoy, a general introduction, and an afterword provide a
helpful theoretical framework for the study of modern poetry. An
extensive bibliography, concise biographies of the poets, and a
glossary of literary terms are included. Students of French and of
comparative literature will gain a deeper understanding of the
development of French verse and of the artistic movements
(especially in the visual arts) which have shaped twentieth-century
French poetry.
