RE: ADSactly Poetry: Arthur Rimbaud, The Seer Poet of Modernity (Part I)

in #poetry5 years ago

Rimbaud is one of those unique poets, who are only born every century. So enlightened so early, he was almost a spark in this world. He is the essence of modernity and rebellion. Proof of that rebellion is his work, but also his life, alongside Verlaine, both passionate, aggressive and crazy. The famous "banished angel" would write: "Love must be reinvented", he said in Una temporada en el Infierno, the famous prose poem he dedicated to his lover. Thank you for such an excellent post, @josemalavem

My gratitude for your comment, @nancybriti. Yes, Rimbaud condensed in his life and work the radical signs and omens of modernity. That's why he was one of the "gods" of Surrealism. I hope to cover the expectations about this capital writer in the next posts. Greetings.
