«Romances sans paroles» is Paul Verlaine's poetry collection, published by Editions Gallimard in paperback (132 pages, in French).
Written during his imprisonment in Mons, this poetry collection by Verlaine explores love, from fulfilment to disillusionment, with a strong autobiographical charge. The work experiments with innovative versification, including odd-numbered lines, and establishes a dialogue with Impressionist painting and music, as its title suggests.
Originally published in 1874, when Verlaine was in Mons prison (Belgium). Edition from «La bibliothèque Gallimard» with pedagogical dossier («texte & dossier»).
Edition designed for students of French and for readers who want to study Verlaine's poetry with didactic support.
Paul Marie Verlaine was a French poet, writer and critic associated with the Symbolist, Parnassianist and Decadent movements. He is considered one of the paramount exponents of the fin de siècle in French and international poetry.
