Editorial Review

Book Description
Gautier's poetry merits an attentive reading which respects his own essential criterion of poeticity, namely, textuality. This is a poetry which puts on display its literariness, that is, its existence as cultural artifact. In so doing, however, it also puts on display the absence of and its resistance to whatever personal or "real" signified it would evoke or name. Its beauty and self-indulgent pleasure reveal their hollowness and inadequacy. Its chiseled, polished surface renders its borders or limits and its play unsatisfyingly and teasingly perceptible. Its very superficiality allows, invites and seduces the reader to go entre les lignes and perceive the mystery, not of what has been symbolically buried/unburied, concealed/revealed, but of the truly absent, the abÎmes superficiels.
Chapter 1, focusing on texts from the PoÉsies of 1830, studies the intextual repetition of Gautier's poetry, the citations, imitations and transpositions which make evident the poetry's displacement of the significant and the personal into aesthetic simulacra. Chapter 2 deals with the poems of Gautier's second collection, Albertus, and analyzes the use of allegory and of humor as further markers of textual substitution. The inherent lifelessness and illusoriness of the textual artifact is revealed in the poems of La ComÉdie de la Mort, the collection examined in chapter 3. Chapter 4 analyzes the so-called descriptive, referential poetry of España, and finds that the "monde extÉrieur" of Gautier's poetry functions to express an absence of self and is itself always shown to be other than the Other. The dimunition of the poetic effected in Emaux et CamÉes is the subject of chapter 5, and chapter 6 deals with the contextuality, the fetishism, and the eroticism revealed in a miscellany of poems - in particular the "libertine" poems - which do not figure in Gautier's five major collections.
By short-circuiting significations and transforming them into seductive appearances, Gautier reveals himself to be the acknowledged maÎtre of both Baudelaire and MallarmÉ.

5-0 out of 5 stars A Truly Great Author
I don't think that many English speaking people realize this but Mister Gautier, on along with his many other pursuits wrote one of the very best of vampire stories a good 60 years ahead of Bram Stoker.

Gautier's story "The Beautiful Dead" while much shorter than the novel Dracula, and Sheridan Le Fanu's Carmilla, introduces essential ideas that we see built upon in the vampire literature of the later 19th century. Gautier writes an exceedingly erotic story.He takes the idea that John Polidori suggested in 1816 of a sexually attractive vampire, & makes it a woman instead.But there is a major difference with Gautier's vampire, which will be immortalized in literature and film ever after.This is a creature of passion.Or... is she very very deceptive?I think that the reader can not say for sure at the end, and i also think that i am not the only reader that Clarimonde had convinced to follow her, even if it would ultimately possibly mean dying to do so.A very brave, honest, and creative mind developed this short story.

Funny enough, while it was originally written in French, it is also one of the most beautiful English language horror stories, much thanks to the quality of it's early translation.Written in 1836, this story is the step between Mr John Polidori's "Vampyre", published in 1819 and Mr Sheridan Le Fanu's "Carmilla" of the 1870's.While there was much vampire literature published in between those dates, none of them over those 40 years, (60 years until Bram Stoker had Dracula published) shaped the way that we think of Vampires the way that Gautier's "The Beautiful Dead" did. Here in this story we have the author that perpetuated Polidori's passing attempt at creating an aristocrat vampire, and gave it merit with a truely great quality of writing.Sorry, i didn't wish to hijack this column, but i think that this is a point that readers should understand about Mr Gautier.He was a truly gifted & wide thinking human being. ...
