Résumé

Résumé : "Rhymes a la Mode" by Andrew Lang is a diverse collection of poems that explore themes ranging from the passage of time and the beauty of nature to the intricacies of art and the human experience. The collection opens with a dedication and a series of poems that reflect on the fleeting nature of youth and the wisdom gained with age. Lang's work often draws on classical references and mythological allusions, as seen in poems like "The Fortunate Islands" and "Pisidicê," which transport readers to ancient lands and legendary tales. The poet's love for the natural world is evident in pieces such as "Ballade of Summer" and "The Last Maying," where he captures the essence of the changing seasons and the joy found in simple pleasures. Lang also delves into the realm of art and literature, offering a critique of contemporary artistic trends and the role of the critic in "A Very Woful Ballade of the Art Critic" and "Art's Martyr." His playful use of form and structure is showcased in the "Rondeaux of the Galleries" and "Ballade of the Book-man's Paradise," where he employs traditional poetic forms to convey modern sentiments. Throughout the collection, Lang's wit and humor shine through, particularly in poems like "Ballade of the Girton Girl" and "Ballade of Railway Novels," which offer a lighthearted take on societal norms and literary culture. Overall, "Rhymes a la Mode" is a testament to Lang's versatility as a poet, blending classical influences with contemporary themes to create a rich tapestry of verse that resonates with readers across generations.
