In this Very Short Introduction, Bernard O'Donoghue provides a fascinating look at the many different forms of writing which have been called "poetry" - from the Greeks to the present day.

Écrit en 1873, ce long poème en prose est la confession fiévreuse d’un jeune poète en rupture. Dans une langue fulgurante, Rimbaud traverse sa saison comme un enfer intérieur: révolte et lucidité, chute et sursaut, désespoir et désir de salut. Cette voix, tour à tour hautaine, blessée et visionnaire, scrute le mal et la poésie elle‑même, en éprouve les limites et brûle ses illusions. Traversée désespérée et lumineuse, cette œuvre garde la modernité d’un cri: un pacte avec la nuit, une tentative de salut par les mots—jusqu’au silence.

This poem was written by myself sometime ago, and has only now had the opportunity to be spoken of.

Las páginas de este libro de fricciones poéticas, tal y como sucede en el amor, no precisan explicar nada más allá de lo que al amar, al desear, se siente dentro.
