| biography:
| Poet, born in Lille, N France. He worked on the Mercure de France, then for the Revue des deux mondes. A Parnassian who had felt the influence of the Symbolists, he expressed gracefully a precise and picturesque world in the two volumes published during his lifetime, Au Jardin de l'infante (1893) and Aux Flancs du vase (1898). Le Chariot d'Or was published in 1901, a year after his death from tuberculosis, and a drama, Polyphème, in 1904. |
