9780807892732 0807892734 This book examines mannerism and baroque in the poetry of Tristan L'Hermite, a leading lyric poet of the seventeenth century. After presenting a history of scholarship on both the mannerist and baroque styles, James Shepard offers a definition of each as it applies to seventeenth-century lyric poetry. He then turns to Tristan's works, examining the poems contained in the Plaintes d'Acante et autres ouvres, Les Amours, La Lyre, and the Vers h©ro¯ques; his religious poetry; La Renomm©; and his recently discovered poems. Shepard reveals Tristan's amatory poetry as mannerist and his heroic and religious poetry as baroque. Many poems, however, contain elements of both styles. This supports Frank J. Warnke's theory that Baroque is the period style, with mannerism and baroque being two aspects of the period. Shepard also uncovers a baroque dompt©style--the toned-down baroque that Helmut Hatzfeld and others argue characterized French classicism--in some of Tristan's heroic and religious poetry., This book explores mannerism and baroque in the poetry of Tristan L'Hermite, a leading lyric poet of the 17th century.
