La course aura lieu le 29 mars. Both of these dates are recalled in a series of events this March as part of an Austria in Luxemburg programme. Devised by the embassy of Austria, the programme also commemorates the 50th anniversary of the signing of the Austrian State Treaty by the French, Russian, British and American occupying powers who had overseen the running of the country since liberating it from Nazi rule at the end of WWII.
And it is also 20 years since Austria formally joined the European Union in the expansion that also saw Finland and Sweden swell the ranks of the union to 15 countries.

Work on the infrastructures on the even number side of the street along the cemetery has been completed. The idea was to move the cycle lane to run between the car park spaces and the pavement parallel to the cemetery, which makes it safer for cyclists. On the Val Ste Croix work is finished on the even numbered side, and now continues on the odd numbered side. The entire project should be completed by December Six of the 12 major phases have been completed. The next big phase is the crossroads with the rue de Merl, which will affect traffic flow even though access to and from the rue de Merl will be maintained.
Preliminary work, not originally foreseen, on waste water pipes was also carried out to comply with the new PAP, which will save time and disturbances later. Work should be finished by the start of November. Work was scheduled to finish by the end of January if there had been no unexpected delays due to weather. Now the completion date is likely to be spring Work is progressing on the 10 different phases, with half now complete.
Work here involves laying water pipes from a spring so that the city can become even more autonomous in terms of drinking water supply. The difficulty is guaranteeing that the pipes run downhill so that water can flow freely, especially as, to save time, the pipes are being laid from end to end to meet in the middle.
Traffic on two lanes is guaranteed throughout the works. Work is running according to schedule. The concrete foundation of the tower is progressing and the next step will be to fix the guides for the lift. Work has progressed well. The major phase of laying waste water pipes that resulted in a one-way restriction to traffic is over. Now gas and water and dry utilities are being installed. The work will be completed by late The preparatory work is still underway and is scheduled to be completed in the spring of Construction work on the extension of the car park is scheduled to start in the autumn of and the total duration of the work, including the extension and renovation, is expected to be four years.

The Luxembourg City Tourist Office, for example, launches its 33rd Printemps Musical programme featuring an array of talented musicians from around the world. And the Luxembourg City Film Festival, under its new name, brings a wealth of international cinema to the capital. A month of eclectic Austrian culture is also lined up. Music and loss of memory combine to generate a fun and endearing show. Indeed, his educational background and career bear witness to a strong liking for the arts, a predilection for creativity, without being limited to a given discipline.
At the very beginning, Philippe Leygnac studied graphical arts; he finished his studies in the field of animation by obtaining a BTS technical diploma at the famous Gobelins school in Paris. Thereafter, ever drawn to other means of expression — he taught himself to play the piano — he decided to dedicate himself to music, specifically learning to play the trumpet and to read and write music.
He took part in the composition of songs and made several records. The two Frenchmen excel at combining musical creativity, mime, theatre and humour, to the great delight of their audiences. Directed by Julien Feder, it tells the story of a couple who are losing their memory, and in the process sets out to explore the bizarre and incredible situations that ensue.
Suddenly, a third character, every bit as strange and original as the other two, arrives and disrupts the routine of the couple. In order to take revenge on her husband for leaving her, Sonia recruits Nancy, a prostitute, in order to entrap him. And while a kind of relationship arises between the three protagonists, the main motif of the play is the relationship between the two women — between Sonia, who is going through a bout of nervous depression and who embarks on a spate of vicarious sex, and Nancy, whose wish to become a veterinarian was destroyed by her prostitution.
The two women explore their fantasies and desires intertwined with power and violence. In their hands, sex becomes a powerful and highly destructive weapon. Jean Boillot stages two plays in one act: The main figure of the two plays is the parasite, in the form of a young man, first as an artist, and then as a servant who takes advantage of the wealth of his master in return for a few meager services. Alone on stage, Clara, played by Anne Brionne, relates the trials and tribulations of a woman who seeks the help of medical practitioners to get pregnant. Veering between hope, despair and comical situations, the woman and the couple live through challenges and confront the incongruous glances and opinions of friends and relatives about their situation.
This tribute to two monumental figures of music is also a journey through the history of the art and thought of the 20th century. Although humour has been an inherent element of the human condition since time immemorial, according to the organisers of Humour for Peace it is nowadays all too often confined to commercial productions. The festival will be attempting to break out of this constraint, hosting performers from Portugal, France, England and Luxembourg.
Yehudi Menuhin et Glenn Gould. Ami Flammer, a violinist, and Charles Berling, a comedian, impersonate Yehudi Menuhin and Glenn Gould, two giants of classical and baroque music of the 20th century — two men with radically differing career paths and highly diverging approaches to performing, yet who, in spite of all their differences, were united by their unconditional love of music.
In this tribute, the two performers meld seamlessly into their roles: This play by Richard Dresser tackles the topic of harassment between three characters in the same company: Each member of this trio is out to destabilise the others. Working on a platform in the middle of the desert, with minimal contact with the outside world, the three men, who forced together by their isolation, suffer and devise strategies for mental and physical survival.
Under the belt uses a droll tone to depict a nightmarish world in which the entrepreneurial system and hierarchy combine to destroy people: Michael Thalheimer wurde mit dem Theaterpreis Der Faust ausgezeichnet. Der Kriminalroman, ein im Theater eher seltenes Genre, dreht sich um das Verschwinden von Karla, die an einem Montagabend nach einem Treffen mit Freunden noch kurz in den Supermarkt gehen will… Es beginnt eine nervenaufreibende Suche, bei der sich der Freund der Vermissten, die Mitbewohnerin und dessen Schwester selbst ganz neu begegnen.
Le duo rappelle, dans son principe, Sacred monsters: Un 3 du Trois finlandais! The Barbie doll has been a leading model of femininity for children for more than 50 years. Its blonde hair, pert bust, long legs, pink clothes, lace and miniskirts constitute the ideal appearance of a certain type of woman of the late 20th and early 21st centuries. A Finnish 3 du Trois performance! The evening is rounded off by two films by Timo Wright, a media artist, focusing respectively on fashion dress codes and the interaction between action and beliefs.
Akram Khan is a regular on the Luxembourg stage, having produced numerous shows: The two of them have now come together to perform a dazzling piece on stage. Their duo recalls Sacred monsters: The crashing and fusion of these two worlds is an ode to rhythm. The strikes on the ground, the circular movements, the stares and glances exchanged by the two men hint at hostile mutual observation and challenges which gradually transform into a friendly complicity and osmosis. As it is often the case with Akram Khan, there is a lot of humour in the air, though it never interferes with the poetry of the encounter.
A resolutely modern piece combining the work of one of the masters of Japanese comic strips with creative choreography of various influences and styles. The new show by Boy Blue Entertainment is based on a script and imagery created by Akio Tanaka, a famous mangaka and exponent of the Gekiga school, the adult and political Manga stream, famous worldwide thanks in particular to his Shamo fighting cock series which began in With its unique combination of dancing, theatre and film, the play draws the audience into the captivating, spiritual and physical world of five heroes.
The dance movements and the incredible technique of the dancers, combined with the lighting and the sense of space and time, yield a work that is extremely well-rounded. Created in at the national theatre of Taipei, this piece by the Cloud Gate Dance Theatre of Taiwan company stands out due to its outstanding artistic input. Lin Hwai-min, its choreographer, has raised his company to the level of the leading modern dance companies in the world while preserving the identity of the most ancient rituals of Chinese dance.
For this work, which revolves around the concepts of calligraphy and is based on a conversation between two master calligraphers of the Tang Dynasty , the dancers move over a white surface inclined at an angle of eight degrees. The pearlescent colour scheme of the set calls for extra virtuosity on the part of the dancers, who appear to be moving in conditions of weightlessness, thanks to their fluid movements and their evanescent dresses that are easily confused with the projections of clouds.
The legend of the Phantom of the Opera was created by Gaston Leroux, a French author, whose novel was published in His fantastic tale has been adapted more than a hundred times for television and cinema, notably by Julian Rupert, a New Zealand film director in , for Universal. The action takes place in the late 19th century. Having fallen in love with a young singer, he abducts her in the hope of getting her to fall in love with him. Among the most poignant works in the classical repertoire, this oratorio expresses human suffering under all its aspects, uniting both sacred scriptures and madrigal-like poetry.
One of the great masterpieces of music in the baroque era, this work rises like a moment of respite, timeless, a spiritual testament whose full meaning is revealed by the sense of awe and piety that it inspires in those who hear it. If you like a bit of variety with your music, this evening is made for you! Its educational unit, which aims to foster artistic dialogue, discovery and exchanges between artists and their audiences, has enabled many children and adults too to develop their creative capacities and to refine their critical outlook.

The resulting show verges on stage poetry, on account of the approach used by the choreographer, and the children in the magical and comical world of the film. Sylvie Blocher loves to see things reinvented, however seemingly impossible or impractical. Allowing oneself to dream is a strong and affirmative act of personal freedom and creativity, which enhances life! The Phantom, a horribly disfigured man, lives below the Paris opera house.
He becomes obsessed with a young singer named Christine Mary Philbin and tries to get her a leading role at the opera house. When his plan is rejected by the opera house directors, he exacts revenge. Rosi was known for his political films. But his work was also meditative and poetic and highly regarded by his peers.

It has been a long time coming but local indie folk pop band Seed to Tree have finally gotten around to releasing their debut album Wandering. The sense of purpose felt in his life spills over into his creative activity.
As in the prewar period, his self-confidence is expressed equally in vigorous simplicity of expression and lively fonnal innovations, represented on the one hand by the easy dis- cursive verse of.. It is a fact that Apollinaire's battery was stationed during this period April-June in a small wood. His letters are full of delighted accounts of its plant and animal life and the hours of leisure he enjoyed within it, in relative , safety, writing and making rings out of shell cases. But the poems-''Echelon" especially, with the white wound of the trenches seen beyond the wood and Death dangling at the perimeter-heighten this real-life situation by a process of fabulation in which the wood takes on the associations of a privileged, almost magic, sanctuary.
A sense of security, therefore, spreads throughout t. This is not escapism or obliviousness 1 of death and danger, whose presence is acknowledged in the background and occasionally filters into the poems. At this and aU subsequent stages love is, of course, one of the major ways in which Apollinaire tried to sustain his vision. The significant group of poems here are those written for Madeleine Pages. The dying loves for Marie laurendn and Louise de Coligny' add to the singular richness of love themes in the volume, generating elegiac poems in that vein of condensed and evocative lyricism of which he was a consummate master.
The sequence of quatrains in uLueurs des Tirs" which he wrote for Marie conceal ambiva- lent depths of meaning beneath a limpid surface with a skill that he rarely. What is special about the poems to Madeleine, however, is the way in which they are deliberately made to fulfill a vital need for spiritual replenishment and creative stimulation.

There followed a rapid courtship by letter, culminating in a proposal in.

During this time he continued to correspond with Lou as well as Madeleine, but the majority of his love poems from May are inspired by Madeleine. The metaphoric connections that are woven so persistently between the battlefield and the distant object of the poet's dreams draw together two widely different realities and, by enlarging the poet's awareness of both, allow him to t: Remarkably, the escalating erotidsm of the poems is made to fulfill a sim- ilar function.
The whole violence of war is colored by the poet's sexual long- ing and becomes the expression, not of a destructive aim, but of a fierce cel- ebration of passion. This is not a Freudian hypothesis about the link between sex and aggression, but rather an attitude of quasi-religious awe at the convulsion which shakes humanity. It is an attempt to humanize and make sense of violence by see- ing it as an expression of a vital urge which ultimately transcends its death..
Undoubtedly the greatest challenge to his powers as a poet was that of finding a convincing form and style in which to convey his epic vision of the war, without insen. The solution is found in a constant striving to elevate events to a mythic dimension; beyond the notions of death and destruction. In other poems "Chant de! There is ample evidence in the poems from the last months of Apolli- naire's service that he was aware of the real horrors of war.
In the artillery the dugout had been, like the wood, a sym.. It is at once a definitive expression of the anarchy of war and yet, in the way the wild sweep of event: War for him was a total and complex experience whose contradictions can be reconciled only within a heightened poetic vision. His achievement is that his war poetry as a whole successfully embodies that vision. They are most fully elabotated in his famous lecture ''l'Esprit Nouveau et les Poetes" in November , whose central theme is the need for constant experiment and innovation if poetry.
The miracles achieved by contemporary science and technology are so staggering, according to Apollinaire, tha. To rival the achievements of the scientist. Through prophecy the artist will constantly be able to look into the unknown. This radical commitment to innovation is qualified by the statement that a modernist aesthetic should nevertheless seek to retain the finest elements of the past. U the new spirit inherits from Romanticism its restless quest for novelty, it must draw from classicism certain traditional qualities.
These concessions to tradi- tion, however, strengthen rather ,t han weaken a paean of praise which per- fornts the considerable rhetorical feat of bestowing on the avant-garde spirit both a cloak of heroic glamour and a mantle of authority. The ideas of ,. L'Esprit Nouveau" form the very stuff of the last great poems of Calligra. Whereas the lecture was enthusiastic and confident, anxiety and uncertainty again invade the poems. More strikingly still, where the allian.
It is sometimes said that this note of self-doubt is attributable to personal difficulties a. His head wound , had left him debilitated and frequently. He also suddenly found himself elevated to the status of a recognized master for a whole new generation of poets, but he was uneasily aware that some of his disciples were prepared to be more radically iconoclastic than himself "hence some veiled criticisms in the lec- ture. As in the He can rightly claim to be the one poet above all others who unites the virtues of a long poetic tradition and those of a new phase of bold expertment and change.
In the depth of his vision and his consummate mastery of poetic language he is in complete continuity with the great poetry of the past. It is fitting that his poetic testament should be so lucid and poignant a recognition of his unique position. University of Stirling S.

Whether its point of departure be scraps of cafe witticisms or an atelier backdrop, all such external matter is digested in the finished poem, which is an undoubted creation of the poet's. This same point is made by Adema, pp. Indeed, it was one of Apollinaire's favorites, an example, in his own. In November Les Soirees de Paris published an article by him which consists mainly of quotations from the painter's. A phrase in the condusion is particularly significant: The statement as a whole.
Collage, anonymous voices, fragmentation, juxtapositions between space and time, are not new in Apollinaire's work, but in 1. Lockerbie has, in addition, pointed out parallels with Picasso',s early cubism [GA 51 pp. More convincing, as an indication of Delaunay' s relationship to the poem, may be the role of color words in lines 1 and 34; always chosen by Apollinaire for their rhyth- mic and emotional effects, they are, in the opening line of "Les Fenoetres,'' directly related to Delaunay' s ideas about color and about nin,eteenth-cen- tury color theories Greet.
But see also Lockerbie, The poet seems atypically absent from his own poem, except at the end when he shares in or takes over the painter's powers and the poe: The notion that the poem derives exclusively from external stimuli, however, has not as yet been satisfactorily clarified.

It is, however, Apollinaire's own overwhelming reaction to a painter's work, and not that work as such, which dominates this poem as well as the other two major poems. Here, the poem expresses a lyrical apprehension of space and time-and becomes a triumphant form of simultaneity. A poetic transformation of the kind of nineteenth-century color theory Delaunay attacked discussed by Imdahl, in Vriesen and Imdahl, pp.
Despite these conceptual implications, colors float. The style of these lines, while not so rhythmic and sonorous as that of line 1, can hardly be called prosaic when one considers the role of phonemes in lines , the imagery in lines , the mysterious tenninology of line 6, and its control over line 7. Line 2 offers an immediate appeal to faraway places, which later on becomes at once more dominant and more p: The unspecified rain forest. They are associated, in turn, with the pihis of lines An association between a magical bird of some kind and telegrams emerges in calligraphic forrn in ''Voyage" OP, p.
One can say that the pihi, the telegram, the con. Two disconnected observations of a type familiar to readers of uz " one. Line 8 might refer to either present or past but, in the context of line 9, it probably refers to the past. The use of the past, in line 9, is significant because it fuses two possibilities -a fragment of conversation and a fragment of memory. The image of the window, here and at the end of the poem, evokes the series of window pictures by Delaunay, possibly one painting in particular. The use of the future 10 , present 11 , and imperfect 12 creates a sense of temporal simultaneity.
Spatial simultaneity may be stressed by the ambiguou. One thinks of an artist whose mediurn is paint rather than words. From the light created in line 12, the whole -o f 'line 13 seems to emerge. In the final version, beauty, paleness, and color are in ambivalent apposition. Thus one sees how, w. Another interjection, in familiar language. The theme of time may have been triggered by the play on wo. Le Temps and La Liberte were newspapers. The puns juxtapose journalistic and poetic effects: Much has been written about this line.
On one level it may con,- jure up objects in Delaunay's atelier, but its evocative power has other sources. The dominant impression created by these changes is that Apollinaire wanted to avoid the image of boots probably because of the shoes in I. A secondary impression is that he was attracted by the possibility of adding to the unexpected assortment of marine life: One might counter that lotte comes from Iota which is also Hindu for a globular water jug and thereby circular Grand Larousse. The only likely reference in this line to Delaunay's paintings, however, is multiples Soleils some of the Fonnes circulaires were Soleils.
In the same way the three- dimensional puits ''wells'' are transposed into two-dimensional places "city squares" and then back to three.. By contrast the same pun, ten years earlier, in uLa Tsigane, '' has an effect of 1yridsm and condensed ambiguities. Capresses, Chabins, Chabines are terms used in the Antilles mentioned in Here, l'oie "goosei' becomes the trumpeting cry of geese on their way northward and evokes enormous mysterious migrations. This line has caused much comment. An image of faceted sur- faces is seen simultaneously as reflecting light and also providing at least an illusion of depths.
Not only is it associated with poem, poet, the globe itself, as well as the city lights of Vancouver and the glitter of the hurrying train, but it is n. Apollinaire's modernism differs from that of his futurist friends by its lyricism. Trains always fascinated him. Here the image of tbe train emphasizes the flight of time.
In the corrected proof a variant reads: And this fading of yellow may be related to the setting sun. Thus Une 34 has mo. The refrain that changes meaning with its context is a favorite technique of Apol- linaire's. Line 35, This line w. The place-names are spread out over two continents and, by impli. The original austere modernism of line 35 is so.

On a deeper level the whole poem, with its colors, its noises and voices, its far.. A travers Chagall, '' In Apollinaire et la peinture. Les 11 Amis d' Apollinaire. A rbouin's article see n. Apollinaire had plans to publish these four poems, together with 'Lettre- Ocean,'' in mid under the title ''Et Moi Aussi Je Suis Peintre,," but the outbreak of the war frustrated his intention.
At that stage the poems were still called ideogrammes lyriques. A satisfactory reading of '1'aysage, '' as of all the calligrams, has to see the poem as an integrated whole rather than as a succession of separate entities. The main difficulty here lies in the ambiguity of the shape beginning amants couches ensemble. The text, on the other hand,: Some critics have understood this to be an allusion to the failure of love, visualized in the poefs own body, and thu.
The most logical reading of the poem, in this case, would be to begin with the house and proceed in a dock wise direction to end with the spread-eagled shape. The theme would de,a rly be the loss or death of love, which casts a shadow over a landscape that is shown. The use of a landscape setting to express, by COJ trast, the personal distress of the poet has many other parallels in Apollinaire' s poetry, not least in "Voyage," composed at exactly the sam,e time. JS 1over, then rising to salute. It is interesting to note, as far as the latter shape is concerned, that in the poem "Les Profon.
Equally relevant is the fact t: The cigar and its smoke could thus be seen as an entirely appropriate linking device between the poet or the lovers and the landscape symbols at the top of the page Lockerbie, Scrutiny reveals many other detailed felicities: Not least, the breakup of words into syllables in the design of t. For long ''Les Co1lines" was assigned a pre- war date, in spite of Scott Bates's intuition in his pioneer essay that the poem was written. Pou- pon GA 6, pp.
The manuscript at the Bibliotheque Litteraire Jacques Doucet is a collage of stanzas written in different inks on pieces of paper and then pasted onto the page. Some of the glued papers correspond. Several stan- zas are written on the page. The variations in ink and paper indicate that the poem was composed over a period of time.
These variations include th. For although there are some corrections of purple ink in a more recent black ink, one scrap of brown paper containing tw'o stanzas begins in black ink and changes to purple, while the title of the poem is written firmly in purple ink. Some definite groups include stanzas ; and the: It seems evident, as Adema observed in conversation, , that the manuscript's composition was piecemeal and prolonged.
This type of composition is seen frequently in Apollinaire's poems, although never so complexly as here,. But whereas Tiresias may have taken shape over many years, the time lapse for IlLes Collines" is much less, perhaps two years. If the poem was written after Apollinaire's return from the front, why is it placed in ''Ondes"7 In Alcools, Apollinaire's latest poem ''Zone" serves as preface; but Alcools makes no claim to a chronological presentation.

Perhaps most interesting to the modern reader is the fusion of that quest with personal anxieties. The Stendhalian colors, red and black, may refer to spiritual conflicts, manifest in early poems like "Le Larron" Aicools , dominant in the prewar ''Zone," and1.
Like the image of the Christ- plane in "Zone,', these airplanes may also be a reminiscence of medieYal Rhenish paintings. The solar plane of line 5, flaming eternally like the phoe- nix, is distinct from the two temporal airplanes. Burgos, the solar plane is the poet see note to stanza For LevaiUant, the spaces of the poem intermingle the objec- tive and the subjective. For Lockerbie, it is more a question of time and space, while the motif of the poet's wandering reflects his yearning to be everywhere at once, a state he may reach only after periods of hesitation, doubt, and suffering p.
One does not know, for certain, which airplane is red or black in line 3 and which is compared to Lucifer or the archangel But past and future, Order and Adventure; damnation and salvation, are suggested in an antithetical manner by the two: A lCools, and the prophetic voice of the grandstand poet. Poetry as prophecy fascinatedApollinaire, beginning around ; and was probably inspired by Pkassois experiments at that time.
The public tone of voice emerged later, during the w. For the possibili ty of Apollinaire"s exposure to German expressionism, see note to ''A Travers rEurope. The first of a continual series of breaks or shifts in thought which gjve the poem the air of a soliloquy interrupted by outer reality or irrational trains of thought.
We seem, suddenly and briefly, to emerge into the present: Paris singing her song, in line 20, cont: The song itself introduces stanza 5 which seemingly begins with a nostalgic question 21 , answered with a visionary's faith in future glory The musical flow of line 21, undermined by ambiguities and the notion of a Pyr- rhic victory, is interrupted also by syntactical devices in lines Or see introduction, p. The image of prophets as high hills, elaborated in lines , is reminiscent of Baudelaire's "Les Phares. The Psylli of lines we,r e, according to Herodotus,, an ancient race of snake charmers in Libya who vainly with their magic fought the south w.
The poet conceivably com- parEs himself to the magicians of the PsylH and their inevitable fate: Line 32 echoes a paradoxical notion of time, or of the human being within time who simultaneously passes by and endures, -which has already been expressed in Al. Les jours s'en vont je demeure" [Time draws in I. The notion of machines becoming men or mastering the world of men recalls the science fiction of Wells or Kapec.
A eag1-es - 's h. Like lxion in Alcools, and perhaps replac- ing him in the poet's mythology, Icarus is a persona of the creator. The ambiguity surrounding his achievement and his fate is prolonged through- out the stanza which refers not only to man's soaring flight but to a possible downfalL Une 42, "C'est lui qui. One is stressed by an associa- tion between the phonemes in mers ''seas" and mere umother" 40 , which underlines ancient and modem ideas of the ocean as the source of life. Thus man is the ocean's crowning achievement. Teste and Mme Emilie.
Although ombre 44 may, in context, suggest the unconscious or some other inward source of dreams, and even mortality, it suggests also a play on meanings: The theme of human consciousness as prime creative source, which first emerges unambiguously in stanza 9, dominates the two subsequent stanzas. That age of magic heralded in stanza 10 seems closely related to an era of scientific progress which Apollinaire sees as resulting from World War I. The word fable 49 is used in the same sen.
Consciousness and its different levels are finally described in precise te. The whole of stanza 11, in fact, recalls once again Valery "Aurore''. There is a seemingly explicit reference to Freud compare L. Breunig's discussion of Apollinaire's possible contact with Freud's ideas, GA 7, pp. There are, at the same time, implidt parallels with the essay "L'Esprit Nouveau": This notion, expanded in stanzas , anticipates the emphasis that Breton places on surprise, in hi. Insofar as love of a woman. Through this mixture of associations, lines present an image of present liberationr associated, in typical Apoilinairean manner, with exorcised sorrows of the past.
Stanzas 13 and 14 comment on a notion implicit in the poems, which evolves in the war poems and becomes a key theme here and in ''La Jolie Rousse,'' that suffer. In fact, both what Apollinaire calls suffering and what he calls willpower are inextricably linked to his notions of desire and of human consciousness. Another abrupt change or new beginning, which Davies attributes to the ''cyclical" structure of the poem r p. There may be an association of ideas between the theme of human consciousness and the image of helpful ghosts 76 , but there is a marked shift from a general co.
The ring as a circle of N time or infinity, and the association of circular time with ghosts, are remi- niscent once more of "La Maison. Stanza 16 builds up to an effect already existent in 11 Zone;;! And indeed, in contrast with the atmosphere of the past, veiled by the present tenses of stanza 16, present and future seem evoked in stanza A more fanciful reading ,to make towers" the verbal play may welJ have triggered or been triggered by the preceding carrefours and places refers probably to Delaunay once more and to Apollinaire's highly contrived poems about him.
Is this mysterious image a mystification appropriate to a magician? Or is it a reference to the ring on his finger,. Almost at once, in line 88, not only the poet's future death is invoked but his present purification, a state linked to a mysterious past experience ll. One may also interpret lines as the words of a survivor of trench warfare and brain surgery who attempts to communicate his experi- ence of life and death to noninitiates.
Also something like a progress in perception is indicated by the verbs.: They indicate different aspect-s or levels of insight or vision and also suggest that the poet as carpenter; potter, craftsman, is working with his hands to shape his poem so that he may face death with equanimity. The theme of the poet as visionary leads to a renunciation of his past. Burgos, an eagle GA 8, p. The sudden familiar style that emerges in line 97 is ambiguous: Lines may express a new awareness of Apollinaire's autobiographical poetry as a means of playing out his emotions. The farewell to youth becomes an explicit refrain in stanzas There ; a flavor of Vitarn lmpendere Amori C'O rna jeunesse abandonnee" and, ignificantly, in line , an echo of Alcools: Quotation of his own works is a way of evoking the past and n old habit with Apollinaire.
The technique of naming what one rejects learned perhaps from Lucretius or Cicero continues with a parade of mem- ,ries. After the earliest, that of Rome at carnival time, the memories fuse. Indeed, by the time ne reaches the end of stanza 23 it is a little hard to know whether the poet till repudiates the past or whether memories have fused, in lines , 1ith present visions.
Whether gently or abruptly, the refutation of youth leads the. The basic idea of double identity, in which one not only observes neself but becomes what one does, is derived in part from Western notions: There is also a curious parallel with Valery's "Jeune 'arque" who is part serpent. The poet takes up, once more, the theme of prophecy. His ision of a kind of balance the middle age of the world expresses also his wn present feelings about himself, in his late thirties. Here, at the center of: Not only is there a duster of key words in stanza 25 but there appears also a new word, la bonte, which col..
In line the possibility of knowing the future assumes Faustian overtones. Forbidden knowledge, in the eyes of the medieval church, carried with it the penalty of death and even the death of onels soul. Such a reading closely alHes visionary to scientific insight. A simpler reading is that a vision of the future is so intense that, before the new age of heroes, it would have been unbearable. Increasingly the theme of prophecy takes on a personal coloring. Pre- occupations with friends and lovers underlie the exaltation of man's image.
Line has biblical associations with the seven years actually twice seven years Jacob served for Rachel. There may also be, in lines , beneath the human-. As the prophecy becomes more enigmatic, it becomes more concrete. The discovery of other worlds is already ambiguous are they external? Does the mind that languishes yearn for these new worlds or for its own fruit? The poet returns to pr-esent Ume, but his mood has changed since his last return, in stanza Now he proclaims not only 'JL'Esprit Nou- veau" but his own uniqueness.
For Bates, the Promethean tone of the poem becomes testy in these Jines pp. It is possible, however, that they are a commentary on line , that is, that they exemplify the spiritual state he has just referred to, the confidence which Apollinaire was far from feeling, as a steady mood, at any time that. Line may express a conscious, exalted impudence, reminiscent of the poet's you. Floating on the water like the Maid of Asto- lat, she suggests a mixture of symbolist and Pre..
The image of the torch in line again suggests Picasso cf. Les Trois Vertus Plastiques as well as, to a lesser degree, the Christ of ozone" and perhaps the poet himself. There continues to be much discussion about stanzas Particularly ambiguous is stanza 31, depending on whether one attaches it more closely to the preceding stanza or to 32, as do most critics. On the one hand, there is the theme of the friend who inspires and transforms stanza 30 and subsequently withdraws stanza 31 , so that the poet is thrown on his own resoun: On the other, the theme of a friend is set against the theme of a withdrawn, lost self.
The notion generally held is that Apollinaire speaks uniquely of himself in stanza In a conversation with Adema in , that interpretation was rejected; however, Apollinaire's biographer was positive that line In addition, the profondeurs incolor: Or the stanza may describe a return from meditation, which takes the form of a new experience of dedouble- ment.
Solitude cannot be mastered, or the other self does not complete the return but still wanders la-bas uthere"; the poet's memory seems to stop recording and to stick in a groove. He passes from an earthbound to an airborne stage the latter recurs in other poems: Que penses-tu de ce geste? Quels indices le montrent?
