Renowned translator Norman R. Shapiro here presents fresh English versions of poems by three of Western literatures most gifted and prolific poetsthe French Renaissance writers Clment Marot, Joachim Du Bellay, and Pierre de Ronsard. Writing in the rhymed and metered verse typical of the original French poems (which appear on facing pages), Shapiro skillfully adheres to their messages but avoids slavishly literal translations, instead offering creative and spirited equivalents.Hope Gliddens accessible introduction, along with the notes she and Shapiro provide on specific poems, will increase readers enjoyment and illuminate the historical and linguistic issues relating to this wealth of more than 150 lyric poems.A marvelous microanthology of sixteenthcentury French letters. Representing the pinnacle of French Renaissance verse, the poems singled out here are sensitively interpreted in rhymed English versions. . . . There is a pleasant and inspiring craftsmanship in these interpretations.Virginia Quarterly Review
