- This extended monograph (256pp) makes a major critical breakthrough in investigating colour in the works of three iconic French poets and art writers of the modern tradition: Stéphane Mallarmé, Paul Valéry, and Yves Bonnefoy. Of ambitious transhistorical scope (late c19th to early c21st), the book breaks decisively with traditional symbological recuperations of colour as it explores the fullest range of the writers’ poetry and art writing, together with related journalism, culture critique, correspondence, and essays. In its comparative, interdisciplinary discussion of the visuality of poetry/art-writing and related visual culture, the book examines European Renaissance, Baroque, and Modern art (32 colour-plates).
