Dear person at sunsite : I am desperately looking for a poem by
Charles Beaudelaire . " Receuillement " Can you help me in any way ?
In the best possible scenario E-mail it to me ! I recently went to a
literary workshop,and met a young woman there who also spoke French.
I proposed that the above poem could not be successfully translated ..
..because of its lyrical sadness and melancoly... Pehaps you care to
comment something on that view ?Anyway, I live on an island,and it is
not easy to access such esoteric subjects as romantic French Poetry,
but I would like to have that text again.I used to know it years ago
! ( Sois sage oh ma douleur,et tiens toi plus tranquille...) Merci
mille fois. Nyara.
