| Summary | "Les contemporains, première série" by Jules Lemaître is a collection of literary studies and portraits written in the late 19th century. This work seems to delve into the lives and contributions of contemporary French authors, featuring notable figures such as Théodore de Banville, Sully-Prudhomme, and Émile Zola among others. Lemaître’s approach likely reflects on their styles, influences, and the literary movements of their time, offering readers insight into the landscape of French literature during this period. The opening of the book serves as an introduction to Lemaître's literary critiques and reflections on several poets, starting with Théodore de Banville. Lemaître emphasizes Banville’s unique approach to poetry, particularly his development of the "ode funambulesque," which marries comic and lyrical elements. He discusses Banville's techniques, such as the use of rhyme as a crucial device in creating effects in poetry and highlights how this poet's craftsmanship plays a central role in his work. Lemaître also juxtaposes Banville's approach to earlier poetic forms, illustrating the evolution of poetic expression in the context of romantic and whimsical themes, thus setting the stage for a broader exploration of the lives and works of contemporary authors that follow.
