Parnassianism (or Parnassism) was a group of French poets that began during the positivist period of the 19th century (1860s-1890s), occurring after romanticism and prior to symbolism. The style was influenced by the author Théophile Gautier as well as by the philosophical ideas of Arthur Schopenhauer.^[1]
