Professor Bishop's book challenges the conventional wisdom that sees Alfred de Musset solely as the writer of intensely personal lyric poetry. By closely studying Musset's major poetic works and his numerous reflections on the art of poetry, Bishop reveals a poet whose work cannot be reduced to a sentimental cri de coeur and whose poetics cannot be reduced to an esth???tique du sentiment.
