PDF La Poésie de Tristan Klingsor de 1890 à 1960 ford Tristan Klingsor 1874 1966 is a French poet painter musician and writer His real name is Leon Lecl re but he took on the alias because he said his family name was too common in Paris Klingsor said he chose his pen name because he liked the sound while researchers tend to say he took Tristan from Wagner s opera Tristan und Isolde and Klingsor from the villain in Parcifal also by Wagner Wagner was immensily popular during that time and an idol to Klingsor and many other French artists Another theory states he found Klingsor in a book from a street corner market I guess every theory has a grain of truth which is part of Klingsor s personality. La Poésie de Tristan Klingsor de 1890 à 1960 ebook reader The picture on the cover is a self portrait Klingsor with an Arabian hat Clearly he liked to exoticise himself so it s no wonder he was part of Les Apaches an avantgarde movement in Paris where other famous artists were involved such as Ravel Fargue or Stravinsky Ravel and Klingsor were close friends and he composed three pieces based on three poems by Klingsor Asie La fl te enchant e and L indiff rent. EPub La Poésie de Tristan Klingsor de 1890 à 1960 ford Klingsor wrote a collection of one hundred poems under the title Sch h razade in 1903 and those three poems are part of this collection So far the collection has been seen as an erotic re telling or re imagination of Sheherazade s life and fairy tale althouth the truth is much complex The three chosen poems show an imaginary view of the Orient As we know the Orient can mean basically anything beyond the borders of the Balcan and reaches from the Arabs to Japan even South East Asia.

Kindle La Poésie de Tristan Klingsor de 1890 à 1960 chevy g Flaubert Klingsor used the Orient as a backdrop for his own desires The I in some poems is Sheherazade as in La fl te enchant e who gets up from bed where her master is sleeping to walk to the window and listen to the song her lovers is playing As song like a sweet kiss on the cheek Asie is about a person outside of the Orient wanting to visit that magical wonder filled world The poem is full of sensuality and stereotypes yet charming as often with works of this kind. Book La Poésie de Tristan Klingsor de 1890 à 1960 1970 The I in Asie can clearly be read as Klingsor wanting to experience the fullness of life from violence and death to beauty and desire Interestingly the Arab Orient is described as a world full of sex and violence while China the only other culture mentioned is stereotyped as a world of literati with high art calligraphy Bamboo Grove etc. Book La Poésie de Tristan Klingsor de 1890 à 1960 1970 The last poem L indiff rent is usually seen as being Sheherazade flirting with a man walking past her to wich I say Nay First of all there is no geographical positioning within the short poem Apart from placing the poem in the Sch h razade collection there is zero indication this poem has anything to do with 1001 Nights at all In fact the name Sheherazade is never mentioned in the three poems though I would need to see if it s mention in the other 97 at all. Book La Poésie de Tristan Klingsor de 1890 à 1960 d Third the young man walking by is described like this Tes yeus sont doux comme d une fille and et la hanche l g rement ploy e par te d marche f minine et lasse Also the face is soft and graceful This is not a masculin type of man but rather THE prototype of feminine young men desired like in ancient Greece and gay community The stranger also talks in a foreign language that is described as charming. La Poésie de Tristan Klingsor de 1890 à 1960 ebookee Researchers believe Ravel and Klingsor might have been gay even though Klingsor married later and had a daughter which of course means nothing at that time see Oscar Wilde Ravel also said these poems reflected his inner most desires which was interpreted as L indiff rent being somewhat of an outing and I agree This poem does not sound like a man and a woman flirting but two men desiring each other Whether the man at the door steps or the young man walking by is Klingsor is free to interpret as anyone pleases. Kindle La Poésie de Tristan Klingsor de 1890 à 1960 corvette Of course on the surface the poem can also be read as the typical Parisian encounter of two would be lovers who will never be together because the city life is mean and makes deep relationships impossible yes there is a hint of sarcasm then we have the orientalists ones after that came many other phases I didn t finish the book but what I read was very interesting entertaining and well researched For a poet that is almost unknown unless one knows about Ravel he has done quite a lot of important works and had influence on and friendship with many other important artists.
