Book desription: Paris: Honore Champion, 1998 809 pp. Footnotes, appendix, bibliographies, index. Text in French. Published posthumously with the assistance of author's friends. An important scholarly study of the historical literary reception of the poetry of Pierre de Ronsard (1524-1585), the most important French Renaissance poet and leader of the Pleiade, a group of writers which cultivated classical Greek and Latin literary forms to rejuvenate French language and literature. A recent reviewer (Philip Ford) wrote: "This is a fascinating study which traces in considerable detail the Pleiade's eclipse with the advent of Malherbe, whose efforts to discredit Ronsard and his followers set the tone for the whole of the seventeenth century, the oblivion into which Renaissance poetry fell in the eighteenth century, and the gradual renewal of interest in Ronsard in the opening decades of the nineteenth century . . . [an] impressive study." CONDITION: Small bump to lower right corner of spine, else as new. OVERSIZED.. First Edition. Hardcover. Like New/No Jacket (as issued). 17 x 24 cm.
