Paul Valéry (1871-1945) var en fransk poet och fo rfattare. Han framstår idag som en av de viktigaste franska författarna under 1900-talet och undvek medelst sin död, efter att ha nominerats tolv gånger, att tilldelas Nobelpriset i litteratur. Karaktären herr Teste kan ses som en cartesiansk studie av ett tänkande subjekts väg i världen. Textens klimax är skildringen av en kväll som berättaren tillbringar med herr Teste på operan: där smälter slutligen herr Teste samman med de omgivande tingen. Detta intresse för det mänskliga subjektets medvetande och gränser återspeglas också i skriften om universalgeniet Leonardo da Vinci.
Jan Hannerz och Lasse Söderberg har översatt och litteraturforskaren Jan Holmgaard har skrivit ett efterord.

Paul Valéry (1871–1945) var en av förra seklets viktigaste franska författare. Som ung ingick han i kretsen kring Stéphane Mallarmé och blev 1925 invald i Franska akademien. Hans författarskap omfattar många genrer (poesi, dramatik, berättelser, filosofiska dialoger, essäer) och från tjugotalets mitt var han en intellektuell institution inte bara i Frankrike utan i hela Europa. Den rena och tillämpade an-arkins grund satser är en samling anteckningar som Valéry gjorde under 1930-talets slut. De berör inte bara politik i allmänhet, dess specifika väsen och problem, utan också dess verkan på den enskilda människan. Texten bär Valérys signum, den är förtätad och lapidarisk, utmanande och provocerande.
Författaren Horace Engdahl har översatt och försett boken med ett förord.

'The wind is rising!... Let us try to live!'One of the preeminent intellectuals of modern French culture, Valéry is widely considered one of the country's greatest poets of the twentieth century. Following a flurry of sonnets in his late teens, he abruptly abandoned verse for twenty years. If the publication of The Young Fate in 1917 won him immediate and immense acclaim, his status as the outstanding poet of the era was firmly consolidated with the Album of Early Verse and Charms with its beautiful meditation on mortality, 'The Graveyard by the Sea', considered one of the finest poems in French. A classical voice in an era of avant-garde modernism, Valéry's often sensuous work was inspired by mysticism, myth, the Mediterranean, and above all passionate love. This bilingual edition brings together for the first time the complete verse with many unknown and previously unpublished poems taken from his abundant correspondence, which offers intimate insight into a private side of the writer.

He called the dialogue “the most supple of the forms of expression,” saying that “I found I was talking to myself in two voices, and began to write accordingly.” This volume brings together all his formal imaginary dialogues, including two, Eupalinos and Dance and the Soul, which some consider to be the fullest and most characteristic expression of his genius.The Collected Works of Paul Valéry, the first collected edition of the writer in English, features new translations, the original French on facing pages for poetic works, and editorial notes.

An informal dialogue of ideas in which Valéry paints a witty portrait of himselfOffhand, personal, and amusing, Paul Valéry’s Idée Fixe is an informal imaginative dialogue of ideas in which two men vacationing at the sea seek refuge from boredom by engaging in intellectual banter about human nature, the mind, and the haphazard relationship between humans and the world. Since the first-person speaker is unmistakably Valéry, the dialogue is perhaps more than anything else a wry self-portrait of a spare, dapper, and nervous figure whose feverish mind seldom allows him to rest—or anyone else to talk.The Collected Works of Paul Valéry, the first collected edition of the writer in English, features new translations, the original French on facing pages for poetic works, and editorial notes.

The National Book Award–winning translation of Valéry’s singular novel, a strange and powerful philosophical exploration of human consciousnessPaul Valéry was obsessed with exploring the conscious mind, and it was this preoccupation that produced the unusual masterpiece of modern fiction that is Monsieur Teste. Although not autobiographical in any usual sense, Valéry’s only novel is a profoundly personal book, a portrait of a character whose mind is shown in two aspects—detached from the senses and engaged in the events of everyday life. This volume also includes “Snapshots of Monsieur Teste"—passages from Valéry’s Notebooks that give a closer view of Teste.The Collected Works of Paul Valéry, the first collected edition of the writer in English, features new translations, the original French on facing pages for poetic works, and editorial notes.

A collection of Valéry’s essays on three artists who were of central importance to himPaul Valéry had an enduring fascination with Leonardo, Poe, and Mallarmé and his essays on these fellow artists are among his most important writings. This volume presents those essays along with extensive selections on these figures from Valéry’s Notebooks. Valéry’s Leonardo and Poe were almost pure invention. It was not so much their works as their minds that interested him—“the living and thinking systems that produced those works.” In the essays on Mallarmé, Valéry was writing about a man he knew and loved, and a poet he greatly admired, but whose difference from himself he fully recognized.The Collected Works of Paul Valéry, the first collected edition of the writer in English, features new translations, the original French on facing pages for poetic works, and editorial notes.
