petits romantiques (English spelling) petitsromantiques

...The so-called German Romanticism created a new treasure trove of fantasy literature with a huge number of works, including ETA Hoffmann's "The Golden Vase" and "The Devil's Effect," Novalis's "Blue Flowers," and works by Chamisso, Kleist, and LAvon Arnim. In France, the central Romantic writers and poets such as Hugo, Lamartine, and Bigny did not leave any particularly noteworthy works in fantasy literature, but minor poets, such as Borel of the "petits romantiques," created excellent works of fantasy novels that extremely compressed the spirit of the times while revealing its anti-time nature. During his lifetime, Nerval was considered to be only one of these minor poets, but in the 20th century, his profoundly refined poems such as "Poems Fantaisie," and his novels full of dreams and madness, including "Aurélia," received extremely high praise and came to be considered a master of fantasy literature representing the 19th century. ...

【ボレル】より

…リヨン生れ。ネルバルらとともにいわゆる〈小ロマン派Petits Romantiques〉の世代に属する風変りな人物で,みずから〈狼人Lycanthrope〉と称する。《ラプソディ》(1832)のような詩集,《シャンパベール,背徳物語集》(1833),《ピュティファル夫人》(1839)などの小説には,独自のダンディズムと反社会的態度があらわれており,〈黒いユーモア〉的な要素も多分にある。…
