DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Originally published in 1994, The Short Lyric Poems of Jean Froissart is a meticulous reading of the important but generally neglected short lyric poems of Jean Froissart. The book situates Froissart within the cultural and literary context of fourteenth-century Europe and examines a representative number of his lyric forms (pastourelles, chansons royales, ballades, virelais, and rondeaux) demonstrating their richness of theme and poetic virtuosity. The book provides a readable and reliable English translation, making it possible for English scholars unfamiliar with the original Middle French forms to understand and appreciate the influence Froissart had on Chaucer and other authors of the age. The book focuses on themes, techniques, meters, and rhythms that Froissart employed in his poetry, on how his poetry fits poetic tradition, and on the place of Froissart in literary history.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from A Shorter Froissart: Being Selections From the Chronicles of Froissart The stories from Froissart in this selection follow as closely as possible the translation of Lord Berners. It has, of course, been necessary to modernize the spelling, but otherwise a modern word has been substituted only where the old one would not nowadays be understood.
