Poésies
By Stéphane Mallarmé. 2021
La rencontre d'un des plus grands poètes français et d'une grande voix du théâtre contemporain Avec celles de Baudelaire et…
de Rimbaud, la figure de Stéphane Mallarmé domine la modernité poétique qui se constitue à la fin du XIXe siècle, et, quoique son oeuvre fût rare, adressée à une élite de lecteurs lentement accrue, « il lui avait suffi, dit Valéry, de quelques poèmes pour remettre en question l'objet même de la littérature ». Un vers nouveau naît avec lui, une poésie qui donne congé au réel pour en préférer l'évocation pure, un langage qu'on a pu dire obscur mais qui n'est en réalité que le défi lancé aux lecteurs qui sauront, pour eux-mêmes, en déployer secrètement le sens. Cette sélection regroupe une trentaine de poèmes, parmi les plus beaux et célèbres de Mallarmé : Brise Marine, L'Azur, Apparition... Jean-Pierre Malo s'approprie l'oeuvre de Mallarmé avec talent, mettant à son service une énergie et une sensibilité remarquables. Une lecture d'une justesse impeccable, qui souligne formidablement le sens de ces textes éclatants. Un enregistrement d'exception, réalisé en 1992, dont Audiolib publie ici une version remasterisée inédite pour faire revivre ce chef d'oeuvre du patrimoine sonore. Les poèmes sont présentés dans l'ordre d'édition du recueil publié en 1914 par La Nouvelle revue française : Salut Le Guignon Apparition Placet futile Le Pitre Châtié « Une négresse par le démon secouée » Les Fenêtres Les Fleurs Renouveau Angoisse « Las de l'amer repos où ma paresse offense » Le Sonneur Tristesse d'Été L'Azur Brise Marine Aumône Sonnet - 2 novembre 1877 Don du Poème Toast funèbre Feuillet d'album « Ô si chère de loin et proche et blanche » « Rien au réveil que vous n'ayez » « Si tu veux nous nous aimerons » Chansons bas « Quand l'ombre menaça de la fatale loi » « Le vierge, le vivace et le bel aujourd'hui » « Victorieusement fui le suicide beau » Le tombeau d'Edgar Poe Tombeau - Anniversaire, janvier 1897 « Tout orgueil fume-t-il du soir » « Quelle soie aux baumes de temps » « Mes bouquins refermés sur le nom de Paphos »Avec la participation de Marie-Ève Dufresne pour l'annonce des titresThe Bill Martin Jr. big book of poetry
