	French poetry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Poetry at the end of the century was profoundly marked by the civil wars: pessimism, dourness and a call for retreat from the world predominate (as in Jean de Sponde).
		French poetry from the first half of the century was dominated by Romanticism, associated with such authors as Victor Hugo, Alphonse de Lamartine, and Gérard de Nerval.
		Poetry in the post-war period followed a number of interlinked paths, most notably deriving from surrealism (such as with the early work of René Char), or from philosophical and phenomenological concerns stemming from Heidegger, Friedrich Hölderlin, existentialism, the relationship between poetry and the visual arts, and Stéphane Mallarmé's notions of the limits of language.

	The Influence of French Poetry on American (Rexroth)
		Vers libre is “libre” of the French alexandrine and the syllabic structure of French poetry.
		French people seldom really realize, having never seen the country, that America is a commercial civilization with a mass culture and an official literature which in no way reflects the actual life of the country.
		French poetry influenced American in the days when it was changing rapidly, and when it, more than the poetry of any other language, was the first to catch the funeral music of the end of our civilization.

		Contemporary French poetry is as lively as it is multifarious.
		Since the middle of the XXth century, we are aware that French poets have been withdrawn in the demanding singularity of their art and relatively no longer involved in History.
		Hence at the same time the expression « post-modern poetry » is absurd, since poetry is first and foremost a knowledge according to the mode of both tension and conflict.

	French poetry since 1950
		Regular or free verse, lyrical or literalistic prose, minimalism or maximalism, orality or spatialism, displayed militant modernity or play with fixed forms inherited from tradition, questionings on the notion of genre or narrowing on that former distinctive sign which is the line...
		Poetry can hardly ground itself on anything but the very work one carries on within it.
		Finally, when reaching the limit of such a movement by which poetry overwhelms itself, suspects itself, leaves itself and sometimes denies itself, we must stress a vast array of definitely fringing forms or practices, such as tract letterism, tract poetry, collages, sound-track poetry of the « Polyphonix » band, performance poetry...

	dichtung-digital / Interfictions: Burgaud: French e-poetry
		According to Philippe Bootz (e-mail 28 02 02), the first automatic generator of poetry was "Poèmes d'Amour" by Jean-Pierre Balpe, in 1980 and Bootz' first programmed combinatory poems, on mini-computer (not micro), are from 1979 (Bootz dixit).
		In 1985, during the exhibition "Immatériaux" in the Georges Pompidou's Centre, the audience was invited to create and print computer generated poems.
		There was obviously a break between the authors who saw the computer as a tool and the ones who are considering the machine as an autonomous medium.
