French Poetry

In this audiobook, I read 33 classical French poems. The majority are read twice: once slowly - so you can repeat after me - and once faster, with my personal interpretation of the poem. I will also sometimes tell you about the author, or explain the vocabulary or the meaning of the poem, all in easy everyday French. Musset, Rimbaud, Baudelaire, La Fontaine, Labbé, Valéry... A collection of 33 of the most famous French poems.

Golgotha est un lieu d’apparitions, espace où se déploie un "je" massif et creux, habité. Constellé d’altérités, il se sonde, se sculpte, remonte ses époques. Il revient du passé le visage dissimulé par un loup, et laisse parler le loup.

Dans Branchez-vous ! Et autres poèmes biscornus, François Gravel s’interroge sur les curiosités de la langue française et s’en amuse. Il va même jusqu’à mélanger l’anglais au français pour s’entortiller les mots et la tête encore plus.

Il a suffi à Stéphane Mallarmé de quelques poèmes pour remettre en question l'objet même de la littérature. Avec lui naquit un vers nouveau : souvent remaniés des dizaines de fois, ses poèmes sont un travail d'orfèvre, pour lequel il soupèse chaque mot, le contemple sous toutes ses faces et dans sa transparence, dans le jeu de tous ses reflets, jusqu'à obtenir un bijou textuel dont l'essence est un plaisir musical et sensuel plutôt que l'évocation d'objets réels. Sans Mallarmé, pas de modernité poétique. Découvrez ou redécouvrez Mallarmé au travers de ses meilleurs textes ; on leur reproche souvent leur difficulté, mais la clarté de l'interprétation de Florence Alayrac permet d'en savourer tout le plaisir.

In this audiobook, I first read the poem in slow enunciated French then use simple, everyday French language to explain each individual verse. I then talk about the life of the author, give a full analysis of the poem and finally re-read the poem at a faster speed with a more personal interpretation. Not only is it a great cultural subject but it's a fantastic way to learn new vocabulary, verb tenses and improve your understanding of deeper conversations.

"Les Métamorphoses sont composées au début de l'ère chrétienne par le poète latin Ovide, juste avant sa relégation sur les rives de la mer Noire. Ce recueil est constitué d'une multitude de courts récits inspirés des mythologies, des épopées et des tragédies grecques et romaines. Un livre-monde, tour à tour édifiant, galant et burlesque dont la voix inspirée de Michel Vuillermoz, sociétaire de la Comédie-Française, révèle l'esprit et les saveurs." Claude Colombini Frémeaux
