Book Description:
Poèmes saturniens est le titre du premier recueil de poèmes de Paul Verlaine. Si Verlaine convoque Saturne, c’est en tant que planète tutélaire des mélancoliques, bien que le mot même de mélancolie n’apparaisse pas dans le poème (il donne toutefois son titre à la première section du recueil).
