Selected Writings of Paul Valéry

Selected Writings of Paul Valéry

This selection from representative works of the great French poet-philosopher is based on the Paris Morceaux Choisis volume, which was assembled by ValÃ©ry himself.
It begins with the poetry (French and English en face), including such masterpieces as "Le Cimetiere Marin" and portions of "La Jeune Parque"; then ranges through ValÃ©ry's work in fields as various as architecture, logic, the dance, literature, philosophy, and painting. It concludes with excerpts from his creative writings such as Monsieur Teste and the drama Mon Faust.

The list of translators for this volume is distinguished. Among them are Lionel Abel, LÃ©onie Adams, Malcolm Cowly, James Kirkup, C. Day Lewis, Jackson Mathews, Louise Varese, and Vernon Watkins.
