Renowned for his elegant épîtres, chansons, and epigrams, he helped shape the poetic sensibility that would inspire Ronsard and the Pléiade.In addition to Marot"s work, the volume includes selections from his poetic predecessors (devanciers), spanning the 12th to 16th centuries, among them troubadours, trouvères, and poets of the grands rhétoriqueurs tradition, offering a broader view of the evolution of French verse leading into the Renaissance.
