Summary "Œuvres complètes de Mathurin Regnier" by Mathurin Régnier is a comprehensive collection of poems and satires written in the early 17th century. This work encapsulates the life and creations of Regnier, a prominent figure in the French satirical poetry movement, showcasing his sharp wit and critique of societal norms. The poetry serves as an exploration of themes related to human vice, political hypocrisy, and personal pride, positioning Regnier as a key player among his contemporaries in this literary genre. The opening of this edition outlines the structure and scholarly approach taken by the editor, E. Courbet, in presenting Regnier's work. It highlights the organization of the texts into two distinct parts: those published during Regnier's lifetime and the posthumous works. Furthermore, the introduction details the editorial process, including the intricate care taken to provide accurate texts alongside biographical notes that correct historical inaccuracies regarding Regnier's life. This foundation sets the stage for readers to engage deeply with the satirical content, which speaks to the cultural and political context of early 17th-century France, reflecting a period rich in strife and artistic innovation.
