3. Author Jacques Prévert - an alternative surrealist rebel
Jacques Prévert (1900-1977), a great French poet, film and drama A writer, his poems are characterized by short and simple language and beautiful melodies, and are widely circulated in the French-speaking world. Prévert is one of the few modern poets in France, and his works can be selected into French primary and secondary school textbooks and French teaching materials in other countries.
Pleville was born into a scholarly family. His mother taught him how to read, and his father was also a literati. Under the influence of his parents, Pleville showed great interest in literature, movies and politics. His character drove his destiny. At the age of 15, he died due to He gave up school because he was tired of it. After serving in the army, he worked various jobs to make a living. In many attempts, he never changed his dream, and finally entered the film script and poetry writing industry. Here he could freely express his unrealistic feelings. imagination.
For literati and artists, Paris is like a huge sucker, absorbing the essence and exuding charm. In 1922, Prévert came to Paris like most literati, and lived in his uncle Marcel Duhamel's hotel from 1924 to 1928. , the hotel was a gathering place for the Surrealist movement at that time. Here he came into contact with Surrealism and Parisian literati, and played word and sentence games together[1] and talked loudly together, which also enabled him to form his own poetry style.
Simone Genevière Dienne[ 2] was his childhood playmate. Along the way, they grew up in a haze of happiness and blossomed in pure emotions. In 1925, Pleville and Dienne walked into the church and made a promise of love before God, but 10 They separated after many years, and the"garden" that followed was a memory of the past love.
After having a family, Pleville still maintained an independent spirit in his work and was unwilling to compromise. In 1930, he began to write articles for different magazines and periodicals. , the focus gradually shifted from movies to poetry creation. During his work, Prévert came into contact with French communism. During the war, he protected the Jews and used poetry to fight. After the war, he used poetry to call for beauty.
Unfortunately, he died of lung cancer in Paris in 1977. It is said that he smoked 30 cigarettes a day.
Pleville's poems are written in popular language and are loved by everyone. He is used to using simple words to outline strange pictures, and hidden voices can often be found under the pictures, or he uses humorous irony or self-deprecation to express his different views (this song"Alicante" describes a beautiful screen). He is good at writing, and he can always feel his dissatisfaction with politics, religion and other realities between the lines, and resists everything that needs to be resisted. This is exactly the character of the French nation (for example, in"The Inferior Student", he expresses resistance from the perspective of a primary school student). He uses a kind of dream that transcends the real world to express the truest voice in the subconscious. He is not restricted by reason, puts aside traditional aesthetic standards, and even breaks the moral shackles, so as to expose and criticize the real world. Through the"unconscious" world built beyond reality, people can get rid of all the pain in reality and pursue a better life (? Garden? is the yearning for beauty).
Prévert's poems are unique and have a strong sense of rhythm. Most of his poems are composed to music. He is considered a surrealist who cannot be classified. Some critics do not even think that he belongs to the ranks of pure literature.
