Poetry

ALLEN U

Ronsard is considered one of France's greatest love poets, yet his poetic achievements are not restricted to his verses of love, wine and nature. A true Renaissance figure, his themes ranged from politics, science and philsophy, to the bawdy and risqué. Using Greco-Roman and Italian poetic models, and drawing on the rich images of classical mythology, Ronsard revolutionised the tradition of French poetry. In the 20th century, Ronsard's poetry was influential for W. B. Yeats, translated by Sylvia Plath, and illustrated by Henri Matisse. He stands as one of the most innovative and diverse voices in the history of European poetry.

Divin troupeau, qui sur les rives molles Du fleuve Eurote, ou sur le mont natal, Ou sur le bord du chevalin crystal, Assis, tenez vos plus sainctes escolles : Si quelque foys aux saultz de vos carolles M'avez receu par ung astre fatal, Plus dur qu'en fer, qu'en cuyvre ou qu'en metal, Dans vostre temple engravez ces paroles : Ronsard, affin que le siecle a venir, De pere en filz se puisse souvenir, D'une beautÃ© qui sagement affolÃ©, De la main dextre append a nostre autel, L'humble discours de son livre immortel, Son cuoeur de l'autre, aux piedz de ceste idole.
