Publication type: Collective work
Editors:Greiner (Frank), Ternaux (Jean-Claude)
Abstract: Why did the epic, the most prestigious genre of all, not become the great modern genre in France? The studies collected here explore the influence of the heritage of classical and Italian authors. They then examine the metamorphoses of the epic genre, incorporated into tragedy and the novel.
