Throughout his Œuvres, Ronsard experiments with multiple strategies of self-affirmation that are explored here through his ways of saying “I am.” The article outlines a stylistic, chronological and generic typology. It highlights the assumption of an auctorial voice that traces its path between the different genres and evolves from indirect strategies to identity affirmations by playing with periphrastic, adjectival and nominal attributes, up to the affirmation of an essence.
