Monsieur Teste

Monsieur Teste more books like this

by Paul Valery

The art of poetry more books like this

by Paul Valery

All of Valery's major meditations on the theory and practice of poetry are included in this volume. T.S. Eliot writes in his introduction that Valery "invented, and was to impose on his age ...a new conception of the poet."

Sea Shells CL

Sea Shells CL more books like this

by Paul Valery, Ralph Manheim (Translator), Henri Mondor (Illustrator)

This is the question posed by the French poet-philosopher Paul Valery in his engaging meditation on the aesthetics of the seashell. As any beachcomber will attest, seashells are an endless source of fascination and delight, and Valery's 1936 essay glows, as Gaston Bachelard says, with his sense of nature's "transcendental geometry". Wondering at ...

by Paul Valéry

Valery's dialogues are his most important works of imagination in prose.

Degas,Manet,Morisot more books like this

by Paul Valery

Valery spent his mature life as much among painters writers -- in a house filled with the memory and the works of Berthe Morisot and her friends Degas, Manet, Renoir, and where Degas and Renoir were still familiar guests. Degas cherished him as a friend, and Valery was one of the few who remained faithful to the old man through his troubled last ...
