Features: Looking back at the publication of foreign poetry in China during the 20th century, we can clearly see that the translation of poems has always been in a scattered, non-systematic state. We are publishing this series, "20th Century World Poetry Translation Collection," precisely to change this situation. We hope to contribute our modest efforts to fill a gap in China's publishing industry, thereby constructing a long gallery of the 20th-century world poetry in Chinese, offering a complete picture of 20th-century poetry. This translation series plans to include fifty volumes, divided into five series, with ten volumes per series. Arthur Rimbaud, a master of French surrealism, is a revered figure in the poetic world. He lived poetry and let poetry live, maintaining undiminished passion throughout his life, with thousands of poems to his name. The selected masterpieces in this collection fully represent the poet's style—imagery is ingenious, moods are profound, scenes are ethereal and hazy, emotions are tender and lingering—making them favorites among generations of readers.
