Autorenporträt
LÉON-PAUL FARGUE (1876-1947) was a writer of poems, novels, and essays. He was a member of Les Apaches, an artist's group formed by Ravel and others, and a close friend of Alfred Jarry. Walter Benjamin considered Fargue the greatest poet in twentieth-century France and the two met in the 30s, with Fargue touring the philosopher around the arcades and other parts of Paris. Fargue was considered the great walker of the city of lights and recounted his perambulations in D'après Paris (1931) and Le Piéton de Paris (1939). Other books of his include Haute solitude (1941) and Déjeuners de soleil (1942).
