The French poet Andre Chenier (1762-1794), who died on the scaffold during the French Revolution, became one of the legendary figures of European literature: the creator of remarkable harmony, light and melodic poems, who preferred to remain in the literary "shadow," he recklessly rushed into the fight against violence and mass madness, knowingly knowing about his doom and choosing death. The collection includes: "Idylls," fragments, elegies, messages, odes, iambic, prose and much more.
