Over de Auteur

Villon is one of the first great French lyric poets and one of the greatest French poets of any age. His "testaments" are mock wills, written in a racy blend of French and underworld slang. Scattered here and there among the ironic items of bequest are exquisite ballads and lyrics, some toon meer crystallizing classic themes of medieval literature. Villon's poetry uses traditional forms to create a powerful poetic personality during a period in which poetic individualism was rare. Indeed, his exquisite "Ballad of the Hanged Men" ("Ballade des Pendus") (1489) offers one of the most immediate depictions of death in Western poetry. Moreover, his dissolute life, lived among thieves and prostitutes, makes him a prototype of later decadent or bohemian poets. He was at various times arrested, imprisoned, tortured, and nearly put to death; his final sentence was commuted to exile by King Louis XI on accession to the throne, when he declared amnesties of all sorts, according to the usual practice of the time. It is not known how Villon spent his last years, after his release from prison. Villon's poetry has been translated by Rossetti (see Vol. 1), Synge (see Vol. 1), and Swinburne (see Vol. 1).

Villon azok közé a nagy lírikusok közé tartozik, akiknek élete és költészete elválaszthatatlan, akiknek lírájából nemcsak egy személyiséget, hanem egy személyes sorsot is megismerünk, s akiknek költészete híven tükrözi életük regényét.

This was a decent collection of poems by the famed, and elusive, poet of Francois Villon. These are interesting, and the form is fairly consistent throughout the duration of his poems. It's an interesting type of poetry and the form is complex and, I imagine, elusive to capture through translation. Nonetheless, it was definitely worth reading.

3.25 stars.
