Inhaltsangabe

Paul Eluard has long been acknowledged as one of the outstanding French poets of the twentieth century. This selection of some seventy of his poems is drawn from the full range of his work and offers a comprehensive view of his poetic development. The edition reveals a network of thematic kinships runningthrough the poetry, and the critical introduction examines these in detail. The editor discusses Guard's moral and political attitudes, and the ways in which these evolve out of a view of love as the central generating force both for society and for the imagination; he examines, too, Eluard s connections with contemporary art and a less familiar part of his work, his forays into the animal kingdom. Eluard emerges as an intriguingly contradictory figure: a public, not to say national poet, who finds authenticity only in the intensely private.
