Selected Letters of Stéphane Mallarmé

Selected Letters of Stéphane Mallarmé

It is the reading world's good fortune that StÃ©phane MallarmÃ©'s letters survived, allowing later generations an intimate look at the inner life of one of Europe's most important poets. MallarmÃ© (1842-98), often called the father of the Symbolists, has had an immense influence on the development of modern European poetry. It was his ambition to create a poetry pure of quotidian realityâ€”autonomous, concentrated, linguistically inventive. His correspondence documents the evolution of this aim, the crafting of a poetics out of a life inescapably "real" in its pains and charms.
