These savage and highly entertaining satires are in a league of their own, and Renart le Nouvel contains important music which is reproduced in the text. Rarely can a medieval work have resonated with the mood of the present as uncannily as do these three satires. Acerbic, raging and finally apocalyptic, these poems from the second half of the thirteenth century, richly entertaining and wickedly comic though they are, express a vision of the world and its descent into corruption and disaster which mirrors our own state of rampant alarm. The animal tales of the 12th- and 13th-century Roman de Renart - the Romance of Reynard the Fox - were immensely popular. Any satire in those original tales was generally light of touch, but the characters created in them, fox and wolf and ass and lion to name but four, were an open invitation to anyone of a more scathing satirical bent. The poet Rutebeuf, in his short but startling Renart le Bestourné ('Reynard Transformed'), deploys the beasts to make a venomous attack on the mendicant orders and on 'Saint' Louis IX of France. The anonymous Le Couronnement de Renart ('Reynard Crowned') then has the Fox crowned king, establishing a reign of every vice. And most ambitiously of all, Jacquemart Gielée in his Renart le Nouvel ('The New Reynard'), gripped by an increasingly pervasive sense of apocalypse, ends his poem with the Fox, the epitome of deceit and lying, not merely crowned king, but seated in permanent, malign control of the world atop a chocked, unturning Fortune's Wheel. The New Reynard is of special interest not only to students of medieval literature but also to musicologists. Music, in the form of numerous songs, plays an important part in Renart le Nouvel's satirical and apocalyptic message, and the poem is renowned as the most abundant source of late medieval refrains. The notations have survived, and the music is edited in this volume by Matthew P. Thomson."--Provided by the publisher. 546 $a Translated from the Old French. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Reynard transformed = Renart le BestourneÌ / Rutebeuf -- Reynard crowned = Le couronnement de Renart / Author unknown -- The new Reynard = Renart le nouvel / Jacquemart GieleÌe. 600 00 $a Reynard, $c the Fox (Legendary character) 600 07 $a Reynard, $c the Fox (Legendary character) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01096821 648 7 $a To 1500 $2 fast 650 0 $a Foxes $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Foxes $v Poetry. 650 0 $a Songs, Old French $v Translations into English. 650 0 $a French poetry $y To 1500 $x Translations into English. 650 0 $a Verse satire, French $v Translations into English. 650 7 $a Songs, Old French $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01126469 650 7 $a Foxes $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00933481 650 7 $a French poetry $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00934799 650 7 $a Verse satire, French $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01165492 655 7 $a poetry. $2 aat $0 (CStmoGRI)aatgf300055931 655 7 $a Songs $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726744 655 7 $a Satirical literature $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01922539 655 7 $a Poetry $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423828 655 7 $a Narrative poetry $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726682 655 7 $a Fiction $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Beast epics $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst02015329 655 7 $a Translations $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423791 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Songs. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Narrative poetry. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Poetry. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Beast epics. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Satirical literature. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Romans. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000000475 655 7 $a PoeÌsie narrative. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000000352 655 7 $a PoeÌsie. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000000476 655 7 $a EÌpopeÌes animalieÌres. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000313333 730 02 $a Couronnement de Renart. $l English. 700 02 $a Rutebeuf, $d active 13th century. $t Renart le BestourneÌ. $l English. 700 12 $a GieÌleÌe, Jacquemars, $d active 1280. $t Renart le nouvel. $l English. 700 1 $a Bryant, Nigel, $d 1953- $e translator. $1 https://isni.org/isni/000000006652545X 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231219011926.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6CAF73E69E3C11EE84E191EF36ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
