Tristan Corbiere and the Poetics of Irony - Oxford Modern Languages and Literature Monographs
Lunn-Rockliffe, Katherine (Fellow and Tutor in French, Hertford College, and Faculty Lecturer in French, University of Oxford.)
This is a study of the 19th-century French poet, Tristan Corbière. Using close textual readings from Les Amours jaunes, the only collection published in Corbière's lifetime, it examines his self-contradictory style. Corbière's use of irony is shown to be a means of exploring the doubts of modern man and the spiritual void of commodity culture.
