Poetry and Radical Politics in fin de siecle France [PDF ebook] 
From Anarchism to Action francaise

Ajutor

Poetry and Radical Politics in fin de siecle France explores the relations between poetry and politics in France in the last decade of the nineteenth century. The period covers the most important developments in modern French poetry: from the post-Commune climate that spawned the ‘decadent’ movement, through to the (allegedly) ivory-towered aestheticism of Mallarme and the Symbolists. In terms of French politics, history, and culture, the periodwas no less dramatic, with the legacy of the Commune, the political and financial instability that followed, the anarchist campaigns, the Dreyfus affair, and the growth of Action franaise. This study demonstrates the connections between the anti-Symbolist reaction of the cole romane of 1891 (in which Charles Maurras first made his name) and the far-right cultural politics of Action franaise in the early twentieth century. It also redefines many of the debates about late nineteenth-century French poetry by complicating the political engagement of the Symbolists in an era when the French ‘intellectuel’ as a national icon was being forged. Mc Guinnessinsists on profound continuities between the end of the nineteenth century and the beginning of the twentieth in terms of cultural politics, literary debate, and poetic theory, and shows how politics is to be found in unexpected ways in the least political-seeming literature of the period. The famous line by Pguy, that everything begins in mysticism and ends in politics, has an appealing sweep and grace. This book has its own more modest and specific version of a similar journey: it begins in Mallarm and ends in Maurras.
