 Paul Verlaine  died on January 8, 1896. The coffin with his coffin is accompanied by a massive procession that runs through the streets of Paris on January 10th. At his grave in the graveyard of the Parisian suburb of Batiinol, the poets Bares, Copé, Malarmé and Moreres pronounce. From the detailed presentation of Paul Verlaine s life, we understood that he had been impressed by an impressive series of misunderstandings. As an extremely sensitive man he falls in love with a passionate passion in a woman. Being entangled in his scandalous bohemian provocations, he boasts his emotional affection for his young friends, Rimbaud and Letino. On the occasion of his enthusiasm on Letino, he says, "I am fascinated by the rage of loving. My so poor soul has lost its mind. " The misunderstandings in this poet's life stem from the uneven distances between the two sexes - male and female. His biographers inadvertently stop at his personality-woven individuality, and it may be more appropriate to speak of the manifold nature of man and creator Verlaine . From his many love adventures we find that this man has vowed to the Other with a foolish passion, which today rightly attracts the attention of the well-meaning connoisseurs of his poetry. According to the conclusions of the serious investigators of his psychography, his love affection was pure and dedicated.  Indeed, the literary prominence of this unique poet is closely related to scandals in his personal / intimate and family / life. The conscientious interpreter of Verlaine 's poetry is inevitably doomed to entertain the role of a clairvoyant who is called to understand the numerous and complex twists in the intimate being of this hypersensitive person. Some critics unearth their passion for love, and often succumb to the temptation to exaggerate his sins. At first, readers are disturbed, some are even disappointed, but eventually become captivated by the overwhelming attraction that transmits the poetry of Verlaine , which is mostly influenced by the truthfulness and sincerity of the lyrical confessions set forth in it.

 Enough is written about the intimate dramas and the addiction to the absurdity of the non-convulsive Verlaine . No one, however, would dare to deny that this poet had a "gigantic" impact on the reworking lyrical expression in French poetry in the 1970s and 1980s. Being familiar with the creative ambitions of the artist, such as Malarme, such as Malarme's exhausting divorce poet's nerves with Mathilde Motte, the constant tides in his passionate friendship with Rimbaud, and the furious outbursts with an unpredictable outpouring of the mother can not diminish his glory Prince of the French poets in the last two decades of the nineteenth century. The authoritative French historian, known for his study of Symbolism, Henri Peir, sums up that the work of Verlaine is so closely intertwined with his life's fate that the critics who have been looking closely at him have failed to avoid explanations taking into account his hereditary predispositions, predetermined by his parents' leniency toward him, reinforced by his creeping awareness of his own ugliness, his first miserable love for his married cousin, Elizabeth, dying early from death, and finally by his choice of homosexual love. One can not deny that the contemporary perception of the poetry of Verlaine invariably lurks the misleading sensation, supported by the scandalous yellow press, which now garnishes the "bedrock" and "the intimate details seen in the lock" of the stars' lives.
