Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Dawn: Les Aubes The poetry of Émile Verhaeren, more than that of any other modern poet, is made directly out of the complaining voices of the nerves. Other writers, certainly, have been indirectly indebted to the effect of nerves on temperament, but M. Verhaeren seems to express only so much of a temperament as finds its expression through their immediate medium. In his early books "Les Flamandes," "Les Moines" (reprinted, with "Les Bords de la Route," containing earlier and later work, in the first of his two volumes of collected poems), he began by a solid, heavily coloured, exterior manner of painting genre pictures in the Flemish style. Such poems as "Les Paysans," with its fury of description, are like a Teniers in verse; not Breughel has painted a kermesse with hotter colours, a more complete abandonment to the sunlight, wine, and gross passions of those Flemish feasts. This first book, "Les Flamandes," belongs to the Naturalistic movement; but it has already (as in the similar commencements of Huysmans) so ardent a love of colour for its own sake, colour becoming lyrical, that one realizes how soon this absorption in the daily life of farms, kitchens, stables, will give place to another kind of interest.
