Contemporary French Poetry is a book written by Jethro Bithell and originally published in 1912. The book is a collection of translated poems by some of the most prominent French poets of the time, including Paul Verlaine, Charles Baudelaire, and Arthur Rimbaud. The book is divided into three sections, each focusing on a different theme: love, nature, and society. The poems in the love section explore the complexities and nuances of romantic relationships, while the nature section features poems that celebrate the natural world and its beauty. The society section includes poems that comment on the political and social issues of the time, such as poverty, war, and inequality.Bithell's translations are praised for their accuracy and faithfulness to the original French texts, while also retaining the poetic quality and style of the original works. The book provides readers with an insight into the French literary scene of the early 20th century, and the poems are still considered to be some of the most important works in the French poetic canon. Overall, Contemporary French Poetry is a must-read for anyone interested in French literature, poetry, or the cultural history of France.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
