Summary:

How is it that many of the most influential poets of the second half of the nineteenth century, from the masters of Parnassus to Mallarme, had so much trouble publishing books? Located at the intersection of the history of publishing and literary analysis, this book tries to answer this question, among others, by considering the editorial context of the time, characterized by the triumph of the novel at the expense. poetry, and examining the singular cases of some poets, especially Verlaine, Rimbaud, and Mallarme. Confronted with increasing difficulties, often insurmountable, in their respective attempts to publish books, these poets were forced to find other means of inscription and diffusion for their works (the collective volume, the small magazine, the album, artist's book, etc.), on the sidelines of the regular edition. The purpose of this book is to show that this multiplication of media greatly contributed to the renewal of poetic forms at the end of the century and, ultimately, to the reinvention of the book of poetry.--Librairie Droz.
