Abstract: With Les Corrivaus, a play that was written around 1562 and published in 1573, Jean de La Taille is the first French playwright in the sixteenth century to offer the public a comedy born from the contamination of a variety of different sources: a tale from Boccaccio’s Decameron, Les Abusez by Charles Estienne, and the comedy I Suppositi by Ariosto. This article examines how the legacy of facetiousness from these models is adopted, transformed, and assimilated by the nation’s taste, resulting in the creation of a new comic French theater.
