He was a disciple of Stéphane Mallarmé, a major contributor to the symbolist movement in France, although they later had a falling out over ideological differences. Ghil published a series a short stories which together were called the ''Traité du Verbe''. He worked extensively on a new system of poetic language in reaction to the Decadent Movement and Symbolism.
