Calligrammes FROM THE PUBLISHER
Calligrammes is a key work not only in Apollinaire's own development but in the evolution of modern French poetry. Roman by birth, Polish by name (Wilhelm-Apollinaris de Kostrowitski), Parisian by choice, Apollinaire was one of the leading figures in twentieth-century poetry, a transitional figure whose work at once echoes the Symbolists and anticipates the Surrealists.
