Paul Val茅ry had an enduring fascination with Leonardo, Poe, and Mallarm茅 and his essays on these fellow artists are among his most important writings. This volume presents those essays along with extensive selections on these figures from Val茅ry鈥檚 Notebooks. Val茅ry鈥檚 Leonardo and Poe were almost pure invention. It was not so much their works as their minds that interested him鈥斺�渢he living and thinking systems that produced those works.鈥� In the essays on Mallarm茅, Val茅ry was writing about a man he knew and loved, and a poet he greatly admired, but whose difference from himself he fully recognized.

The Collected Works of Paul Val茅ry, the first collected edition of the writer in English, features new translations, the original French on facing pages for poetic works, and editorial notes.
