| contents | This paper explores the multifaceted expression of romantic subjectivity in French poetics through the analytical lens of a "triptych," focusing on the distinct yet interconnected contributions of Victor Hugo, Alfred de Musset, and Alphonse de Lamartine. During the fervent era of French Romanticism, these three poets each carved unique paths in articulating the inner self, its struggles, passions, and relationship with the external world. Hugo's expansive, often epic, ego projected itself onto nature and history, embracing a vision of the poet as a vatic voice. Musset delved into the tumultuous depths of personal sentiment, disillusionment, and unrequited love, presenting a raw, introspective, and frequently melancholic self. Lamartine, in contrast, offered a more contemplative and spiritual subjectivity, marked by a lyrical communion with nature and a yearning for transcendence. By examining their thematic preoccupations, stylistic innovations, and the specific ways in which they constructed the poetic "I," this study demonstrates how these three literary giants collectively formed a comprehensive portrayal of the romantic individual. Their combined legacy not only defined the emotional and philosophical landscape of 19th-century French poetry but also laid foundational groundwork for subsequent explorations of the self in Western literature. This analysis provides a comparative framework to appreciate the nuanced variations within Romantic subjectivity and its enduring impact on literary expression. |
