Premiere poesie francaise de la Renaissance: Autour des Puys poetiques normands.
The third part, clearly the most revealing of the mentalite of the city, province, and country, presents and analyzes the poetry of the puys and its imagery according to topics rather than authors.
It seems clear, at any rate, that even a moderately attentive examination of the poems themselves, and of the collections in which they are to be found, will quickly reveal, even to the least receptive, the most skeptical and recalcitrant of readers, the considerable role played by the Puys of Dieppe, Caen, and Rouen in the history of French poetry between the last quarter of the fifteenth century and the middle of the sixteenth century, and even beyond.
