Featured Article: Belle Époque World Fair of 1900 in Paris, France The Belle Époque or La Belle Époque (French for "Beautiful Epoch") is a period of French and European history, usually considered to begin around 1871–1880 and to end with the outbreak of World War I in 1914. Occurring during the era of the Third French Republic, it was a period characterized by optimism, regional peace, economic prosperity, colonial expansion, and technological, scientific, and cultural innovations. In this era of France's cultural and artistic climate (particularly within Paris), the arts markedly flourished, and numerous masterpieces of literature, music, theater, and visual art gained extensive recognition. Popular Article: Konstantin Balmont Konstantin Balmont Konstantin Dmitriyevich Balmont (Russian: Константи́н Дми́триевич Бальмо́нт, Russian pronunciation: [kənstɐnʲˈtʲin ˈdmʲitrʲɪjɪvʲɪdʑ bɐlʲˈmont]; June 15 [O.S. June 3] 1867 – December 23, 1942) was a Russian symbolist poet and translator who became one of the major figures of the Silver Age of Russian Poetry. Balmont wrote poetry and prose prolifically, publishing his works to wide audiences in Imperial Russia. After the Bolshevik revolution of 1917 he emigrated, and had a smaller following in exile. He translated works of writers in several other languages, including the works of Edgar Allan Poe. New World Encyclopedia integrates facts with values.
