British author Arthur Symons (1865-1945) was an important poet, critic and translator. In this book of essays, Symons explores the works and lives of Conrad, the Rossettis, Bronte, Leonardo, Shakespeare, Burton, Verhaeren, Maeterlick and others.

Arthur Symons was known as the 'blond angel', a vagabond poet in the Bohemian tradition of Charles Baudelaire, Arthur Rimbaud and the Symbolists. Symons spent much of his life in France and Italy; he knew many of the artists and writers of the fin-de-si�cle period, including Aubrey Beardsley, Algernon Swinburne, Walter Pater, Edmund Gosse, Joseph Conrad, W.B. Yeats, and St�phane Mallarm�.
