--------
Charles Morice (1861-1919) is a French poet, essayist, and art critic, regarded as one of the leading theorists of Symbolism.
He played a central role in the early days of the Symbolist movement around 1886, alongside:
Jean Moréas,
Paul Verlaine,
Stéphane Mallarmé.
According to several literary historians, Morice is said to have helped establish the very term “Symbolism” during the break with the Decadents.
His major work is:
La Littérature de tout à l’heure (1889)
in which he develops a mystical and idealistic conception of art, based on correspondences, analogy, and the poet’s spiritual mission.
