Maurice Sceve (c.1500-c.1564) was a French poet and a key French
Renaissance literary figure. Originally published in 1966, this
edition of Sceve's 1544 poetic cycle Delie, objet de plus haulte
vertu was prepared specifically for English-speaking students. The
poems are presented in French, with an extensive introduction and
detailed textual notes in English. Textual analysis focuses more on
'the mechanism of the individual poem, so that sources and
contemporary habits of rhetoric are considered in the first place
as elements of the poetic effect'. This book will be of value to
anyone with an interest in French poetry and Renaissance
literature.
