José-Maria de Heredia was born in Cuba and educated at the Sorbonne. His single published volume of poetry, Les Trophées, was universally praised. Despite recognition as a poet's poet, his sonnets were so immaculate that they were nearly impossible to duplicate, and thus his influence on other poets has been negligible.
