CONTENTS

Maeterlinck
Maeterlinck’s dramas, so deliciously unreal, are deeply alive and true. They are real, by dint of their unreality.

Émile Verhaeren
Of all the poets of today, narcissi along the river, Verhaeren is the least obliging in allowing himself to be admired. He is rude, violent, unskillful.

Henri De Régnier
De Régnier is the rich poet par excellence —rich in images.

Francis Vïelé-Griffin
I do not wish to say that he is a joyous poet; nevertheless, he is the poet of joy.

Stéphane Mallarmé
With Verlaine, he is the poet who has had the most direct influence on the poets of today.

Albert Samain
Albert Samain is one of the most original and charming poets, the sweetest and most delicate of poets.

Pierre Quillard
He truly glorifies the multiple jewels of the word. He makes the water of pearls smile and the rainbow of decomposed diamonds laugh.

Herold
He is a poet of gentleness; his poetry is blond, with pearls in its blond, pure hair, and necklaces and rings, elegant, fine gems, on neck and fingers. This word is the beloved word of the poet.

Adolphe Retté
He is recognizable among them all by his dissolute and almost wild appearance. But he smiles and grows languid when young girls pass.

Villiers de L’Isle-Adam
He at once realized himself by fancy and irony, making his fancy ironic, when life disgusted him even with fancy.

Laurent Tailhade
He has none of the grotesque defects of pride; no one has more simply pursued a more simple craft.

Jules Renard
He has given himself this the hunter of images.

Louis Dumur
He is logic itself. He can observe, combine, deduce; his poems are of a solid construction whose balanced architecture delights by the skillful symmetry of curves.

Georges Eekhoud
A dramatist, a passionate soul, a quaffer of life and of blood.

Paul Adam
The lettered men and women, badly informed, have long supposed that his books were like all the rest. They are different.

Lautréamont
He was a young man of savage and unexpected originality, a diseased genius and, quite frankly, a mad genius.

Tristan Corbière
He has much wit, wit at the same time of the Montmartre wine-shop and of the blade of past times.

Arthur Rimbaud
Monsters, whether you are called Rimbaud—or Verlaine?

Francis Poictevin
Disciple of Goncourt, from whom he further sharpened his precious style of writing, by degrees he refined himself to immateriality.

André Gide
He has become one of the most luminous of the Church’s Levites, with the flames of intelligence and grace quite visible around his brow and in his eyes.

Pierre Louys
His success, doubtless, henceforth will stifle as under roses, all other claims of sexual romanticism.

Rachilde
Whether they essay their charms in perversity or candor, women will better succeed in living.

J. K. Huysmans
Huysmans is an eye.

Jules Laforgue
His work, already magnificent, is only the prelude of an oratorio ended in silence.

Jean Moréas
He passionately loves the French language and poetry, and the two proud-hearted sisters have smiled upon him more than once.

Stuart Merrill
He did not embark in vain, the day he desired to cross the Atlantic, to come and woo the proud French poetry, and place one of her flowers in his hair.

Saint-Pol-Roux
One of the most fruitful and astonishing inventors of images and metaphors.

Robert de Montesquiou
The poet, here, is “a précieuse”.

Gustave Kahn
Kahn is before everything else an sometimes he is more.

Paul Verlaine
Verlaine is a nature and as such undefinable.
