The Parnassians were a group of 19th century French poets, so called from their journal Le Parnasse Contemporain.
Precursors of the Parnassian school, such as Charles Baudelaire, Théophile Gautier and Théodore de Banville, had established in art an aestheticism born from desire to break with the often banal prose of their era.
The Parnassian poets built on these notions and turned toward the scientific spirit of their age, embodied in the positivist philosophy of Auguste Comte.

The Parnassians rejected the intimate confessions, the eloquent emotionalism, and the sentimentality of such poets as Victor Hugo, Alfred de Musset and Alphonse de Lamartine.
The Parnassians also published their work in L'art (1865-6), a review defining the virtues of «l'art pour l'art.» Ultimately, the group united around the editor Alphonse Lemerre, who published in three installments an anthology of Parnassian poetry, Le Parnasse contemporain (1866, 1871, 1876).
Although seemingly very different from Parnassian poetics in matters of style and form, the Symbolists enthusiastically integrated into their poetic stance the Parnassian view of poetry as a kind of religion, preferable to the banality of the everyday world.

 [minstrels] The Old Ships -- James Elroy Flecker
The poetic movement led by the Parnassians that resulted in experimentation with metres and verse forms and the revival of the sonnet paralleled the trend toward Realism in drama and the novel that became evident in the late 19th century.
The Parnassians derived their name from the anthology to which they contributed: Le Parnasse Contemporain (3 vol., 1866, 1871, 1876), edited by Louis-Xavier de Ricard and Catulle Mendès and published by Alphonse Lemerre.
The influence of the Parnassians was felt throughout Europe and was particularly evident in the Modernist movement of Spain and Portugal and in the Jeune Belgique (Young Belgium) movement.

 Canadian Slavonic Papers: Crossroad of Arts, Crossroad of Cultures: Ecphrasis in Russian and French Poetry
Among distinctly Parnassian features she lists neoclassical respect for clarity and form and a preference for the distinct outlines of the visual arts as opposed to "insubstantial," evanescent music, the art form especially favoured by the Romantics.
The "Parnassian roots of the Acmeist movement," already well attested in both primary and secondary sources, are the subject of the third chapter.
She regards the Parnassians as escapists from contemporary life, using pictorialism to create a parallel reality of perfected forms, whereas the Acmeists used ecphrasis to bring the artistic legacy into contact with contemporary reality, to reactivate the aesthetic values of the past and thus realize a modernist aim of eclectic cultural unity.

At the age of twenty Hopkins coined the very useful critical term Parnassian, with particular reference to Tennyson: I think then the language of verse may be divided into three kinds.

The term "Parnassian" is not widely known today, but the influence of this group was very present in the the intellectual circles of this era.
Naturally, the Parnassian's lukewarm rejection of Romantic extremities produced a virulent rejection in reverse.
The best (though not the most successful) poets of the time, such as Paul Verlaine and Stephan Mallarme, felt oppressed by the bland perfectionism of the Parnassian crowd, and proudly threw off the Decadent label to proclaim themselves Symbolists in 1866.

 Milton’s Paradise Lost   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
A Parnassian style is shaped by the writer's conscious use of his or her skill and may set a high level or may be quite laboured.
If we admit this distinction, then we have to admit, I think, that Milton's Parnassian style is really difficult to wade through, for all the reasons the critics hostile to his poem repeatedly cite (and it invites parody, the sure sign of a routine Parnassian text).
The parts of the poem which are most excitingly alive, which most truly move us, which fully transcend the Parnassian style and deliver the most astonishingly powerful poetry consistently emerge from the mouths of those people defying God: Satan, various rebel angels, Adam, and Eve.
