The book is more of a survey of all that Valry had to say on music; it examines in detail the influence of such music upon his work as a poet. The structure of the book comprises three distinct phases of argument. In the first part Dr Stimpson details Valry's contacts with the major developments in twentieth-century French music, and reveals particularly close relationshops with a number of outstanding composers and performers. Part II explores Valry's theoretical consideration of the links between music and poetry. The third section studies the musical techniques in Valry's poetry - me.
