An anthology of classical poets from the 15th to the 18th century, represented here by texts that are much less so. We meet Boileau, Du Bellay, the abbot of Grécourt, Clément Marot, Piron, Ronsard, Jean-Baptiste Rousseau or Voltaire, in a great unpacking of beautiful humor, illustrated with spirit by the ineffable Dubout.
