	Arthur Rimbaud
		Before he was sixteen, in consequence of a violent quarrel with his mother, the boy escaped from Charleville with a packet of his verse, was arrested as a vagabond, and for a fortnight was locked up in the Mazas prison, Paris.
		Rimbaud spent from October 1871 to July 1872 in the capital, partly with Verlaine, partly as the guest of Théodore de Banville, and served in the army of the Paris Commune.
		Meanwhile Rimbaud, deeply disillusioned, determined to abandon Europe and literature, and he ceased at the age of nineteen to write poetry.

		Arthur Rimbaud was born in Charleville, in the northern Ardennes region of France, as the son of Fréderic Rimbaud, a career soldier, who had served in Algria, and Marie-Catherine-Vitale Cuif, an unsentimental matriarch.
		Rimbaud's father left the family and from the age of six young Arthur was raised by her strictly religious mother.
		Rimbaud died in Marseilles on November 10, 1891, and was buried in Charleville in strict family intimacy.

	Rimbaud Revealed
		Delahaye and Rimbaud were now separated and Rimbaud suffered an agony of suspense on his friend's behalf, since no news had come, except a vague rumour that his house had been burnt to the ground and that the whole family had perished in the flames.
		Rimbaud was scornful of the action of his friends, declaring categorically that he would not return to school, that there were other and more important things to do at this crisis in the affairs of France He sold his watch and on 25 February he left for Paris.
		Rimbaud had somewhere got hold of the name and address of Andre Gill, the famous caricaturist, and with his habitual coolness, due to a complete lack of knowledge and experience of worldly matters, he arrived unknown and unannounced at the artist's studio.

		Rimbaud anticipated the free-form poetry of the Beats and the odd juxtapositions of the Surrealists while embodying all the angst, suffering, and drama of the Romantic nineteenth century of which he was a part.
		Rimbaud was schooled in Charleville, a town in northeastern France where his family lived in poverty (his father had abandoned them when Rimbaud was six).
		Rimbaud was presumably a brilliant and precocious young man, immersing himself in his studies to offset the pains of poverty.

	Rimbaud, Arthur. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001-05
		Rimbaud is thought to have stopped writing poetry at the age of 19, and he never wrote another literary work.
		Rimbaud’s poetry has been called hallucinatory because the poet seems to write not of material reality but of his dreamworld; his technique anticipates the symbolists in its suggestiveness, its abstract verbal music, and its images drawn from the subconscious.
		Rimbaud’s works were published by Verlaine in several posthumous editions, the first complete collection appearing in 1898.

		Rimbaud's "I" is a separatist, is somebody else: "Je est un autre." I see Rimbaud wearing many masks, adopting different personae and shedding them just as Pound would do later.
		Rimbaud's "I" is a term of art, not a matter of confession.
		Of course, Rimbaud would famously turn his back on his work entirely, but while he was still at it he achieved a distanced poise hinted at all along and perfected in many of the late poems in Illuminations.

		Arthur Rimbaud was a extraordinary figure, a man who in his teenage year s wrote poetry that is arguably amongst the greatest in French Literature, but who gave it all up by his early 20s and went to Africa to run guns.
		Rimbaud's philosophy of "scummification" ("je m'encrapule!" he declared), which meant that he washed neither himself nor his clothes, and deliberately sought out a life at the very bottom of society, was more than an adolescent cussedness.
		Rimbaud - in all his incarnations, from the rebellious student 'loping' accross to the library in Charleroi leaving clouds of pipe smoke in his wake to the deliriously skeletal figure on his deathbed in Marseilles - comes off the pages as an outlandishly entrancing figure.

	[No title]
		Rimbaud was born in 1854 in Charleville near the Belgium border.
		Rimbaud's poetry, little known, during his own lifetime, had an exceptional influence on succeeding generations of writers: Claudel saw him as a Christian apologist, and the Surrealists of the 1920's and 1930's found in Rimbaud's rejection of the rational intellect, a precursor to their own movement.
		Rimbaud's poetry is characterized by its diverse and disparate language levels, its clashes of tone and register, its use of neologisms ("Robinsonner" in `Roman' and "silluner" in `Les Poètes de sept ans'), and its inclusion of vocabulary from semantic fields not traditionally considered appropriate to poetry.

	The Crux of Rimbaud's Poetics.
		Rimbaud's indecision as to the true origin of the quintessences--an indecision that vacillated between the two poles of an Other on the one hand and his creative self on the other--remained the determining contradiction at the heart of his work.
		Rimbaud’s notion of the approach to these things was a religious one, and it formulated itself in a kind of praxis: "one must make oneself a voyant." Rimbaud's philosophy of language was not fundamentally magical, but was rather what I would call dispensational.
		Or rather the significance of Rimbaud, to the extent it is found in his writing itself, becomes synonymous with a rhetorical-poetic study of his technical virtuosity in relation to his literary forebears, on the one hand, and his literary progeny on the other.

	Translating Rimbaud’s Poetry
		Rimbaud is, with no room for argument, one of the greatest and most unusual poets in the history of French literature.
		Although Rimbaud was knowledgeable about the works of the leading poets of his time and often mimicked (and mocked) their forms in his own work, it was his unique style that earned him a rightful place among France’s notable writers.
		Rimbaud had not pursued translating his French poems into this language, thus all translations we have in English of Rimbaud are the efforts of others, almost exclusively successive to his death.

		The Parisian poets who took him under their wing soon discovered that Rimbaud was ungrateful, crude, and as scornful of their precious verse as he was of the Catholic Church, bourgeois proprieties, and everything else his disapproving mother held dear.
		Rimbaud's stormy affair with Paul Verlaine estranged the older poet from his wife and, eventually, from most of his artistic friends as well.
		Arthur Rimbaud is remembered as much for his volatile personality and tumultuous life as he is for his writings, most of which he produced before the age of eighteen.

		Rimbaud, an uncouth young man from the provinces whose astonishing precociousness had brought him to the attention of a leading cultural arbiter of the day, Paul Verlaine, arrived in Paris clutching the poems that he hoped would make his fortune: as Robb and Lefrère both point out, it is a story straight from Balzac.
		Rimbaud regretted that the Commune had not burnt the Louvre, as it had sundry other symbols of the Cartoon Idiot's regime, in order to "force humanity to confront the irreparable destruction of this symbol of its dearest and most evil pride." But this is hardly an attitude that anyone really needs, leftist or otherwise.
		Rimbaud was based in Aden, then a British port attached to a hinterland that was gradually falling under colonial control, in order to trade in coffee.

		And unlike Keats, Rimbaud's deliberate delving into the world of drugs and debauchery as a means to achieve his infamous "derangement of all the senses" has no doubt contributed to his popularity in mainstream culture and rendered him a veritable poster child for the figure of the "poete maudit," as Paul Verlaine famously named him.
		Rimbaud's perception of having been spurned by his family, his mentor, the military, and even the educational system, as well as the disadvantage of youth and a lack of resources to forage a survival in war-torn Paris, all lend invaluable background to both his poems and letters during his literary period.
		Mason defends Rimbaud's later letters as remarkable for their memorable descriptions of scenery and locale, but what strikes this reader is the extent to which the letters betray a person who has chosen duty over inspiration, who has chosen a self-imposed exile.

	There Was Only One Rimbaud
		What Roland Barthes would call the ''figure'' of Rimbaud is the ghost at the banquet of literature: his radical rejection of poetry (not of writing, as Graham Robb makes clear: correspondence from Rimbaud's last 15 years constitutes a significant share of his output) has been appropriated by literary history as his most enduringly poetic act.
		Rimbaud had been giving up different kinds of writing ever since he began to write.'' Robb's holistic approach compels us to trust the poems as a kind of identity kit for the life that followed them, rather than as an abandoned impulse, a dead end; Rimbaud ''was the first poet.
		By such light we learn that Rimbaud is the converse of that other great laureate of exotic disintegration, Joseph Conrad, who claimed to have ''known Rimbaud's verses'' in 1899, and who as young Jozef Korzeniowski may have met the poet in Marseilles in 1874.

		In his words, "it was then I (Rimbaud) asked a police officer to arrest him (Verlaine)." Verlaine was arrested and subjected to a humiliating medico-legal examination, including his intimate correspondence with his lover and the accusations of Verlaine's wife about the nature of their relationship.
		He made a small fortune as a gun-runner, but Rimbaud developed right knee synovitis which degenerated into a carcinoma and the state of his health forced him to return to France on May 9, 1891, where his leg was amputated on May 27.

		Rimbaud’s odd behavior (one of his hosts discovered him naked on the rooftop, hurling his clothes onto the street) and horrific personal hygiene earned him a reputation as a difficult house guest.

	Saudi Aramco World : Arthur Rimbaud, Coffee Trader (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		When Arthur Rimbaud (1854-1891) abandoned poetry altogether in 1873, at the age of 19 or 20, he left behind a small, incendiary and revolutionary body of work that included "The Drunken Boat," A Season in Hell, and Illuminations, a series of mystical prose poems.
		Rimbaud, who knew the region well by then, thought that aiding Menelik would be a reasonably easy way to make money.
		Verlaine had tried unavailingly to contact Rimbaud and assumed that he was dead, and the book was attributed to "the late Arthur Rimbaud." Thus there may have been a moment in a Paris café when someone was reading Rimbaud's Illuminations while drinking a cup of Ethiopian for and exported.

		Rimbaud had written a fan letter from Charleville, and was invited to Paris to stay with Verlaine and his pretty bourgeois wife, Mathilde, who was about to give birth to their son.
		Rimbaud was Verlaine’s “radiant sin.” Verlaine was merely Rimbaud’s “cher petit.” Rimbaud was only escaping from his mother and her demands that he find a job, or else.
		Rimbaud, in the process of putting the finishing touches to his life as a poet, was seeking his first proper job.

		But whether soapboxing on the essence of art, or struggling under the yoke of self-imposed exile in the desert of his later years, Rimbaud was incapable of writing an uninteresting sentence.
