Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book traces the career and explores the theatrical innovations of Pierre Gringore, a prominent French poet and dramatist of the early 16th century. As a member of the theatrical group known as the Sotz, Gringore's work within the Sottie tradition of farcical plays led him to become a major figure in French Renaissance theater. This book presents new insights into Gringore's transformative work during a period of great change for French drama, marked by the emergence of Italian theatrical companies and by cultural shifts in both religious and secular society. The study of Gringore's work provides a window into the artistic and intellectual landscape of Renaissance France, and offers a unique perspective on the development of French theater in the 16th century.
