Francois Villon a Documented Survey

1928. A readable yet highly literate study of the life and times of French poet Villon. While little is known of Villon's birth or death, there is a great deal to be found on his recalcitrant life. He was a French Poet, a thief, and a general vagabond. In his poems the ancient forms of French verse are animated with the keenest sense of personal emotion, of love, of melancholy, of mocking despair, and of repentance for a life passed in taverns and prisons.
