Poésies complètes,

avec préface de Paul Verlaine et notes de l'éditeur

by Arthur Rimbaud

Notes by Paul Verlaine

"Poésies complètes" by Arthur Rimbaud is a collection of poems published in 1895. This posthumous volume gathers works primarily composed during 1870-1871, featuring Rimbaud's early verse in classical forms alongside later experimental pieces from 1872. Published without the author's involvement—who had abandoned poetry years before his death—the collection includes poems that marked both his formal mastery and stylistic rupture. Despite its title, this edition was incomplete, missing several known works while including disputed attributions and select prose pieces from "Illuminations."
