Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book follows the remarkable life of Jean de La Fontaine, the beloved French poet of the 17th century. Beginning with his humble origins as the son of a forestry official in the town of Château-Thierry, the author traces La Fontaine's journey as he becomes one of the most celebrated literary figures of his time. Through the author's skillful storytelling, we witness La Fontaine's early struggle with ecclesiastical studies, his subsequent discovery of poetry, and his eventual patronage by the Superintendent of Finances, Nicolas Fouquet. We learn about La Fontaine's friendships and rivalries within the vibrant intellectual circles of Paris and experience the highs and lows of his literary and personal life. The book delves into the genesis of La Fontaine's famous fables, highlighting the influences that shaped his unique style and the enduring themes of human nature, morality, and wit that continue to resonate with readers to this day.
