This album is the second in the series Ancient Poems, which recites and interprets ancient words. Ancient words are a form of expression of ancient songs in words. They are the general term for classical lyrics and their changes. Literary works created according to the specific organization method based on the rhythm of ancient lyrics are also called ancient words.

After Fame is a discursive rendering of the Roman epigrammatist Martial's Book I. Its 118 poems, on themes such as work, friendship and public life, are modelled after the source material through a variety of 'treatments' - most notably machine translation (for which Latin still presents near-insurmountable difficulties), employing the results as scaffolding for poems that quickly improvise their way clear of their originals.

Jim of the Hills is a verse novel written by celebrated Australian poet, C.J. Dennis (1876-1938). It is narrated by shy, hard-working Jim, who works for a sawmill in the Australian bush. With characteristic pathos and wit, the story unfolds in twists and turns as Jim encounters Ben Murray, the Widow, Old Bob Blair, and the angel with the sunlit hair. This Australian classic, originally published in 1919, is a true delight.

Nearly all Michael Angelo's sonnets express personal feelings, and by far the greater number of them were composed after his 60th year. To whom they were addressed, we only know in a few instances. Nothing is more clear than that Michael Angelo worshiped Beauty in the Platonic spirit, passing beyond its personal and specific manifestations to the universal and impersonal.

The Songs of a Sentimental Bloke is a classic Australian work of poetry composed by renowned poet, C.J. Dennis (1876-1938). This verse-novel chronicles Bill's coming-of-age through romance, love, and fatherhood. From rambunctious street-strolling youth to settled, responsible father, Bill's story unfolds with keen Aussie larrikinism and humour. This work is narrated as a duet by Denis Daly (Bill) and Sarah Bacaller (Doreen).

"Ces pages, lues à deux voix, sont tirées de 'Textes pour un poème' (1949-1970) et de 'Poèmes pour un texte' (1970-1991). Les deux livres présentent un choix, à travers quarante années de poésie. Les titres qui s'inversent voudraient refléter - comme dans un miroir - la même image, suggérer une même démarche. [...] Les guets-apens de l'événement et du temps, qui tentent d'enserrer chacun entre les parois de l'âge, des frontières, du milieu social devraient être très vite balayés par les souffles de la poésie."

Jacques Prévert se laissa convaincre d'enregistrer lui-même quelques-uns de ses textes. Il le fit "naturellement", sans ôter sa cigarette, ce qui explique une diction assez particulière. Un guitariste est là pour qu'il se sente moins seul dans le studio. Le jeu a dû leur plaire car ils recommencèrent plusieurs fois. Dits par l'auteur, ces poèmes ont la nudité de l'enfance, le goût du fruit défendu, les parfums des fleurs sauvages, la vivacité des mauvaises herbes chères à Brassens, et la couleur sanguine des pommes d'amour à la fête foraine. Bon appétit !

"If-" is a timeless classic, a masterpiece about keeping your balance in a topsy-turvy world and maintaining personal integrity. A phenomenal poem by English Nobel laureate Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936), written circa 1895 as a tribute to Leander Starr Jameson, it is a literary example of Victorian-era stoicism. Among other nuggets, it advocates the idea of not allowing your successes to go to your head or allowing your failures to go to your heart.

Point ici d'alexandrins académiques, de rimes faciles et d'images éculées. La poésie de Jean-Pierre Martinez, à la manière de celle d'un René Char, puise à la source de l'indicible pour le donner à entendre malgré tout. La fonction de la poésie n'est pas d'embellir le réel en le décorant, mais de révéler une réalité plus profonde en "redonnant un sens plus pur aux mots de la tribu" (Mallarmé).

Peyronelle a choisi aujourd'hui de courtes histoires contenues dans les poésies de Federico Garcia Lorca (1898-1936), un poète assassiné par des membres des troupes franquistes. Entre chaque poésie, s'intercalent des improvisations à la viole d'amour.

Cette anthologie des poèmes de René Char est un document historique exceptionnel. Les poèmes choisis et lus par l'auteur en 1987, un an avant sa mort, sont tirés de ses principaux recueils : "Fureur et Mystère", "Journal de guerre du résistant", "Les Matinaux", "Temps du retour au pays natal", "La Parole en archipel", "Nu Perdu ou Aromates chasseurs", "Spaces du rayonnement de l'amour" et "De l'amitié en poésie".

"Un grand ramoneur noir, emporté par le vent, tombe dans l'eau de vaisselle du baquet d'un couvent. Enfin quelqu'un de propre à qui je puis parler! dit l'eau de vaisselle." Leurs destins se frôlent, s'entrecroisent, à travers l'univers insolite des personnages qui peuplent leur quotidien. Prévert nous livre un texte à jouer, véritable miroir de nos consciences, qui alterne musique des mots, tendresse et cruauté des sentiments.

Last Poems is the second volume of A. E. Housman's verse to be published in the poet's lifetime. Compiled to present to a dying friend, they poignantly explore in the same gentle, lyrical manner many of those themes of life, death, love, and loss that run throughout his hugely popular first collection, A Shropshire Lad.

"Theirs not to make reply, Theirs not to reason why, Theirs but to do and die". A lament of airman, soldier, sailor, and marine throughout history from Lord Tennyson's 1854 poem based upon a charge of British light cavalry led by Lord Cardigan against Russian forces during the Battle of Balaclava on 25 October 1854 in the Crimean War.
