Clovis (Desmarets, 1657) and Saint Louis (Le Moyne, 1658) portray the figure of the King of France as an epic Christian hero. Far from being flat imitations of old models, these heroic poems attempt to think through the ideological contradictions of the first half of the seventeenth century in France.
