Book Fran  ois Villon

Download or read book Fran ois Villon written by Dominic Bevan Wyndham Lewis and published by . This book was released on 1928 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In preliminary and vivid chapters, Lewis sets out the assured background: the university and town of Paris when Charles VII and Louis XI reigned, and the wretched Hundred Years of War had brought as its sequel the disintegration of the Middle Ages. He addresses himself to the life, employing the barest and most reasonable assumptions, and mindful that dispute is possible as to this or that detail, comes to the abundant and valuable pages in which the written deeds of the man are analyzed. For, after all, Villon is his own sufficient biographer; and no touch of self-revelation shall be missed. From this running commentary, along with its appended "Cream of the Testaments" and selection of famous versions, there emerges the conviction that Villon is of the abiding poets. He is Parisian, French, and universal. The dying Middle Ages found a last voice in him, and France its first modern. He has the whole secret of that "romantic irony" which Byron and the German Romantic School used, and was Verlaine's own Verlaine - a criminal, and rare poet.

Book Fran  ois Villon

    Book Details:

  • Release : 1994

Download or read book Fran ois Villon written by François Villon and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Francois Villon was the last of the great medieval poets, as important in his own, more limited, sphere as Chaucer or Dante. His fame surpasses that of any other medieval French lyricist in spite of the modest quantity, uneven quality, and often repellent subject-matter of his work. His poems are largely autobiographical, and are rich in their descriptions of thefts, fights, nocturnal prowling, imprisonment, and exile. However, as Barbara Sargent-Baur points out, when Villon's work is good, it is very good, indeed unforgettable. His two major works are the Lais, a series of bequests in anticipation of his prudent departure from Paris, and Testament, which is about his primary topic, himself. There have been many translations of Villon's work into many languages, including English, but this is the first edition of the whole of the corpus utilizing a re-reading of all the manuscript sources and presenting for each poem a single-source text with all emendations accounted for. It is also the first annotated English version based on the best-text principle and respecting both Villon's meaning and his metrics. A modern edition of the French texts is presented beside the English on facing pages. In an extensive commentary, Sargent-Baur identifies the poet's literary and historical allusions, as well as place-names, legatees, and biographical data.
