In Denmark, a very prosperous and popular ruler, King Hrothgar, has built a large mead hall and encouraged all of his soldiers to be jubilant and merry. The commotion from the festivities has greatly upset a horrible demon, Grendel, who lives in the swamp. Every night the demon terrorizes the community forcing the Danes to suffer at the hand of the beast for many years until a young Geatish warrior, Beowulf, hears of the plight King Hrothgar has endured.

Story0
Charles Baudelaire is one of the greatest French poets. His most famous work, Les Fleurs du Mal (The Flowers of Evil), was deemed scandalous at the time because of its themes of sex and death, lesbianism, corruption, wine, and the oppressiveness of living. Its powerful imagery and ravaging use of the senses had many name him an unequaled master; the effect on fellow artists was "immense, prodigious, unexpected, mingled with admiration and with some indefinable anxious fear", while the regime of the Second Empire had Baudelaire prosecuted and fined for his "insult to public decency".

Le Chat : voilà un sujet noble, plein de mystère et de plaisirs. Théodore de Banville consacre un poétique texte à ce merveilleux compagnon de l'artiste, le chat, narré au travers de ses habitudes, de sa nature et de ses exploits. Dieux égyptiens, nobles véritables, n'abandonnant leur langueur paresseuse que pour le plaisir de la chasse, les chats n'ont qu'un seul rival digne d'eux : la femme. Jaloux de leurs moustaches, qui ne les gênent en rien pour manger contrairement à la sienne, Théodore de Banville est un homme à ajouter à leur liste de conquêtes. Plongez-vous avec volupté dans cet éloge du chat, compagnon de nos jours et gardien de nos nuits !

Arthur Rimbaud est une fulgurance dans le paysage de la poésie moderne. Né le 20 octobre 1854, mort le 10 novembre 1891, il écrivit ses premiers poèmes à quinze ans et demi et ses derniers à 20 ans. Poète maudit, tourmenté et aux idées marginales, il laisse une œuvre dont la densité fait de lui une figure majeure de la littérature française. Plongez dans la poésie de Rimbaud, le poète "voyant", pour découvrir sa sensualité lumineuse au travers d'une interprétation juste et limpide.

Story0
Mort de tuberculose à vingt-cinq ans, John Keats eut une carrière poétique d'une fulgurante brièveté, suffisamment intense pour faire de lui un des poètes romantiques anglais les plus importants de sa génération. Nourries de la perte d'un amour premier dont Keats ne put jamais faire le deuil, ses écritures se placent sous le soleil noir de la Mélancolie, que la prescience de la mort exacerbe jusqu'à toucher au sublime. Une immense richesse symbolique transparaît sous la lumière de ses accents intemporels.

Story0
Walt Whitman : ce poète et humaniste fut à l'origine des plus grandes pages de poésie des temps modernes. Elles eurent pour créateur un solitaire américain poussé comme un gratte-ciel dans un désert inculte de maisons à bas étages. Whitman est considéré comme un des deux piliers de la poésie américaine du XIXe siècle, avec Emily Dickinson. Sa voix résolument américaine suscite des émotions vives grâce au vers libre et à la force hypnotique de la répétition ; il clame sensualité et liberté dans une langue populaire, et chaque poème est une leçon de vie, un incontournable de la poésie telle qu'on ne l'apprend pas à l'école.

À 75 ans, Victor Hugo a perdu sa femme, sa fille Léopoldine et ses deux fils. Il se retrouve seul avec ses deux petits-enfants, Jeanne et Georges. Alors que la vieillesse lui apparaît, elle s'entoure de la plus petite jeunesse, et l'art d'être grand-père s'impose à l'auteur : c'est obéir aux plus petits. Sa démarche littéraire se fond avec son dernier recueil poétique, rendre justice aux plus démunis, raconter leurs misères et leur héritage, accepter de n'être qu'un passeur et qu'il faut partir.

Der Dichter selbst verspricht: "Wir werden sicheren Liebesgenuss und erlaubte Heimlichkeiten besingen, und in meinem Gedicht wird kein Verbrechen gelehrt." Ob das 2000 Jahre alte Lehrgedicht über die Liebe heutzutage noch praktisch hilfreich ist, müssen Jüngere beurteilen. Die ältere Generation mag jedenfalls ihr ästhetisches Vergnügen daran haben. Oder wird man mich schelten, weil ich ein Frauenbild verbreiten helfe, das so gar nicht in unsere Zeit passt (und das ja auch gar nicht meines ist)?

Esta es una colección de 24 poemas de la poeta Americana más famosa de la lengua inglesa.
