L'hymne dans la poésie française de la Renaissance

About this book

Summary: At the XVIth century, the poetic hymn is, in France, the object of an authentic "reinvention" in constant dialogue with the double tradition of the genre, Christian (Latin) and pagan (Greek), on reflection both a celebration of the divine and a worried search for the "signs" of his presence in the world.--Classiques Garnier.
