Tilley's essay is written from the perspective that the French
Renaissance Literary movement presents more a record of a great
national literary shift than of individual men of letters. Also,
that it was a faithful reflection of a corresponding change in the
whole social and intellectual life of the people. He believes that
the literature of a nation is more or less an index to its moral
and intellectual state, more so in times of great stress and
fermentation, which was occurring during the French Renaissance.
Tilley has also included a sketch of French mediaeval literature so
the reader can understand what the new French Renaissance movement
was replacing. Contents: The Character of the Renaissance in
France; The Antecedents of the Renaissance in France; and The
Beginnings of the Renaissance in France.
