Symbolist Manifesto
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Symbolist Manifesto (French: Le Symbolisme) was published in 1886 in France in French by the Greek poet and essayist Jean Moréas. It defines and characterizes symbolism as a style whose "goal was not in itself, but whose sole purpose was to express the Ideal." It names Charles Baudelaire, Stéphane Mallarmé, and Paul Valéry as the three leading poets of the movement.
