This article presents information on the book "Illuminations," by Arthur Rimbaud and translated by Louise Varese. This book, reportedly, is a collection of prose poems of Rimbaud. "Illuminations" is usually considered an English import into French. Most people think of Rimbaud as the very archetype of youth in revolt, as well as the founder of modernist poetry and one of the greatest secular, that is non-religious mystics. But this was not Rimbaud's approach; he applied it to the literature only. This book is supposed to be motivated with mystical insights.
