Sinopsis

ARTHUR RIMBAUD: A SEASON IN HELLáEdited and translated by Andrew JaryáA new translation of Arthur RimbaudâÇÖs extraordinary poetic statement, written in 1873. The sensual, violent and anguished emotion in RimbaudâÇÖs visionary âÇÖalchemy of the wordâÇÖ remains startling, and continues to inspire poets.ááPrinted with the French text facing the translation.ááFor a time, when he was a teenager until he was 19, art was crucial for the psychic well-being of the restless Arthur Rimbaud (1854-1891). The young would-be rebel Rimbaud escaped from the bland provincial town of Charleville in Northern France to wander the streets of Paris in poverty. After writing his Illuminations and A Season in Hell, some of the most extraordinary poems of all world literature, Rimbaud renounced it all for a hellish and apparently boring life in Aden. âÇÖMortel, ange ET demon, autant dire Rimbaud,âÇÖ as RimbaudâÇÖs lover, Paul Verlaine wrote (âÇÖMortal, angel AND demon, that is to say RimbaudâÇÖ.)áArthur Rimbaud is the tornado of world poetry. He out-blasts just about every other poet. For poets, he is more significant than the so-called âÇÖfounding fathersâÇÖ or influential philosophers of modern times: Marx, Freud, Nietzsche and Einstein. For poets, he is âÇÖeverybodyâÇÖs favourite hippyâÇÖ, a Communard, a âÇÖprecursor of the current movement of subversion of Western notions of self, society, and discourseâÇÖ, and a savage mystic.áá
