Froideur et saveur de la rime chez Boileau

  • Publication type: Article from a collective work
  • Collective work:
    L’Épithète, la rime et la raison
    . La lexicographie poétique en Europe, xvie-xviie siècles
  • Author: Reguig (Delphine)
  • Abstract: The author of the Art poétique was highly preoccupied with the processes surrounding the epithet, as certain texts, like the Satire II, demonstrate. Boileau considered the success of a poem to be manifest in its rhyme : a rhyme’s appeal was the fruit of a concern with the meaning which determined its choice and animated it. This is why Boileau associated the epithet with formal verbalism : a major imbalance hampering the readability of the poem as well as its beauty.
