Les trophées

Résumé

"Les trophées" by José-Maria de Heredia is a collection of poems published in 1893. This Parnassian masterwork comprises 118 sonnets and 4 poems organized into seven sections. The collection follows a sweeping journey through time and space, from ancient Greece and Rome through the Middle Ages and Renaissance, then to the Orient, tropics, and nature itself. Heredia's polished verse exemplifies the Parnassian movement's emphasis on classical form and aesthetic perfection over Romantic sentimentality, earning him admission to the Académie française.
