The Humour of Noël Du Fail in the Propos rustiques
In this article, some modern theories of humour are applied to the Breton lawyer and writer of prose, Noël Du Fail, who produces in French linguistically rather difficult texts containing tales that he presents as being told about the countryside and its colourful, talkative inhabitants. In the Propos rustiques (1547), the first and most accessible of these works, he reveals himself as a self-conscious humorist. Although he does write (within a c…
Remy Belleau et l’art de guérir
This book fills a gap in the market as it ranges over the whole of Belleau’s work, rather than concentrating solely on La Bergerie or Les Amours et nouveaux eschanges des pierres precieuses. It starts by asking why a group of doctors produced a French edition of Belleau in 1945. It moves on to consider sickness and healing in Belleau’s work, studying the comedy, La Reconnue, and the macaronic poem, the Dictamen metrificum, alongside the better-kn…

Remy Belleau's La Reconnue and Niccolò Machiavelli's Clizia
This article compares and contrasts the ways Machiavelli and Belleau use their common source, Plautus' Casina . Machiavelli produces a comedy in prose, and Belleau one in verse. They are concerned with the notion of recognition, although in very different ways, they each feature women, and they adapt Plautus to their own age and their own language. It is suggested that Belleau produces an important innovation in showing his Juguenot heroine on st…
