| | Paul Verlaine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Verlaine's poetry was also popular with musicians, such as Gabriel Fauré, who set several of his poems to music, including La bonne chanson. | | | Verlaine's first published collection, Poèmes saturniens (1867), though criticised by Sainte-Beuve, established him as a poet of promise and originality. | | | Numerous portraits of Verlaine were left by French artists. |

| | The sensitive appreciation of the common incidents and sights of life and the haunting and simple music of his verse, combined with the melancholy and unreal disillusion of the decadents, distinguish his poetry. | | | From that time also dates his Romances sans paroles (1874), which shows Verlaine as one of the first of the symbolists. | | | He gained some notice with the Parnassian poetry of PoEmes saturniens (1866) and FEtes galantes (1869) and became a figure in the bohemian literary world of Paris. |

| | Paul Verlaine |
| | Verlaine was one of the first poets to focus on the pure musicality and rhythm of his native French without concern for classical form. | | | Verlaine spent two years in prison for shooting Rimbaud, during which time he inexplicably converted to Catholicism and began composing poems about his change of heart. | | | Verlaine's true talent did not lie in the depth of his subject matter but in the sound images of his native French. |

| | The Academy of American Poets - Paul Verlaine |
| | The French poet, Symbolist leader, and Decadent Paul-Marie Verlaine was born in Metz, Northeast France on March 30, 1844. | | | Though Verlaine married a young woman in 1870 and had son with her, he abandoned that relationship for another affair. | | | Fortunately, the French people's love of the arts was able to resurrect support and bring in an income for Verlaine: his early poetry was rediscovered, his lifestyle and strange behavior in front of crowds attracted admiration, and in 1894 he was elected France's "Prince of Poets" by his peers. |

| | Fine Line Features Total Eclipse Rimbaud and Verlaine |
| | While Verlaine was in prison, Rimbaud returned to Roche, near his childhood home, and finished A Season in Hell, an account of his spiritual descent and his failure in art and love. | | | From their first encounter, Verlaine was powerfully drawn to Rimbaud, whose arrogance and provocative behavior shocked Mathilde and her parents, with whom they lived, as well as the established literary circles of Paris. | | | Verlaine had written about him and published a selection of his poems. |

| | Paul Verlaine's (1844-1896) first poem was published in La Revue du progrès moral in 1863. | | | Verlaine transformed poetry, even though, through idleness, he may at times have ruined his own. | | | In fact, the expression stems from Verlaine himself, elected "Prince of Poets" by his peers in 1894, at the end of a vagrant's life spent in Paris, Rethel, Brussels and London. |

| | "Paul Verlaine" by Stuart Merrill, translated by Laird Hunt |
| | Verlaine had already delivered lectures in England, where his impressive cranium, ridged, Socratic and well-lit under the electric lights, had made an impression on a public that hadn't understood a word of what he was saying. | | | At the time that I made Verlaine's acquaintance, Moreas was engaged in studying the poets of the Pleiade; as one knows, having arrived quite late in France, Moreas made a conscious effort to afford himself a literary education. | | | I remember a charming conversation I had with Verlaine in that corner of the Cafe Francois Ier where the photographer for Nos Contemporains chez eux caught him leaning over his absinthe. |

| | Fêtes galantes |
| | The innovation in Verlaine's poetry is mostly to be found in his eccentric use of rhythm. | | | Paul Verlaine read Baudelaire's famed Les fleurs du mal ('The flowers of evil') at the age of fourteen, and decided to become a poet. | | | His life as a bohemian was increasingly determined by his addiction to absinthe, a strongly alcoholic, bright green liqueur that became fashionable among decadent poets as 'the green fairy'. |

| | Although Verlaine's own life was at times errant, his bewilderment was matched with a keenness that focused unremittingly from beginning to end on his two great and inseparable enthusiasms, poetry and sensuality. | | | Because his writing stresses liberation, the French "boy-poet" Arthur Rimbaud, whose art is based solely on his individual creativity, is a progenitor of modern gay poetics. | | | Verlaine was a brilliant poet who preferred to see his sensuality and mysticism, refinement and crudity, naïveté and shrewdness, as parallel elements. |
