Abstract

Jean Cocteau pays tribute to his idol, the poet Anna de Noailles, in the 'La Comtesse de Noailles Oui Et Non.' Anna de Noailles is one of the most popular and widely admired among the 20th-century poets because of her unique talent and controversial topics. Her sensual lyricsm has received the criticism of many writers. Likewise, it has also been admired by great critics, such as Proust, Colette and Maurice Barres.
