Henri de R%C3%A9gnier

HenriFranoisJoseph de Rgnier was a French symbolist poet, considered one of the most important of France during the early 20th century.

He was born in Honfleur onDecember 1864, and educated in Paris for law. In 1885 he began to contribute to the Parisian reviews, and his verses were published by most of the French and Belgian periodicals favorable to the symbolist writers. Having begun as a Parnassian, he retained the classical tradition, though he adopted some of the innovations of Jean Moras and Gustave Kahn. His vaguely suggestive style shows the influence of Stphane Mallarm, of whom he was an assiduous disciple.
