Description

Reading Apollinaire's Calligrammes examines Guillaume Apollinaire’s second major collection of poetry.

Composed between 1913 and 1918, the nineteen poems examined here fall into two main groups: the experimental poetry and the war poetry.

They also provide glimpses of the poet’s personal history, from his affair with Louise de Coligny-Châtillon to his engagement to Madeleine Pagès and his marriage with Jacqueline Kolb. Each section examines all of the previous scholarship for the work in question, provides a detailed analysis, and, in many cases, offers a new interpretation.

Each poem is subjected to a meticulous line-by-line analysis in the light of current knowledge.
