Poèmes

by Emile Verhaeren

« Poèmes » réunit une sélection de poèmes d'Émile Verhaeren, poète flamand du XIXe siècle. Son œuvre est caractérisée par son regard critique sur la vie quotidienne des gens simples et les transformations de la société. Verhaeren explore les contrastes entre la vie rurale et la vie industrielle, l'impact de la modernité sur l'individu, et la foi religieuse. Cette collection comprend des poèmes tirés de cycles notables tels que « Les bords de la route », « Les Flamandes » (qui a suscité un scandale à sa parution) et « Les moines ». La poésie de Verhaeren se distingue par son rythme énergique, ses images vives et ses thèmes souvent controversés, qui ont contribué à le positionner comme un poète majeur de son époque.
