Main Page | See live article | Alphabetical index Jean Moréas (1856-1910), born Iannis Papadiamontopolos, was a Greek poet who wrote in the French language. He was an adherent of the school of Symbolism, and wrote the Symbolist Manifesto. In his lifestyle and dress, he was a noted exponent of dandyism, and his verse was marked by the highly embellished mannerisms of the Symbolist school. His later work is marked by a return to classicism and the style of the Parnassians. His most important publications were: Les Syrtes (1884) Les Cantilènes (1886) Le Pèlerin passioné (1891) Stances (1893) Contes de la vielle France (1904) External link Poems of Jean Moréas (in French): http://poesie.webnet.fr/auteurs/moreas.html This article is from Wikipedia.
