Book IV Contemplations to know: mourning her child

I found this approach "Contemplations" Victor Hugo very well done. This book brings together all the poems of Book IV, for the memory of his daughter Léopoldine, who died very young, drowned with her lover who tried to save her and died too. Hugo talks about the impossible mourning, his excruciating pain of losing her daughter. The poems are moving and beautifully written. There are 18. There is also a very good record that takes stock of the Romantic movement, this poetic tomb whose Latin translation means "some verses mine" (Pauca Meae). The commentator also mentions the biography of V.Hugo and political commitment.

These lyrical poems full delight and comfort the desperate hearts, for to paraphrase André Chénier: "Art does that verse, the heart alone is a poet." And it is with all his heart that V.Hugo to write this, thinking of her missing daughter and seeking to find solace for escape suicide.

Musset says in "May Night": "The most desperate are the most beautiful songs / And I know of immortals that are pure tears." Here is a good example.

I particularly enjoyed "Veni, vidi, Vexi" which here is an excerpt:
"In this land where prison does not open wing,
Without me complain, bleeding, and falling on the hands,
Morne exhausted mocked by humans convicts
I wore my link in the eternal chain. "
