520 _a"Ballades and Rondeaus, Chants Royal, Sestinas, Villanelles, etc." by Gleeson White is a collection of poems written in traditional fixed forms, likely compiled in the late 19th century. This anthology showcases a variety of poetic structures, including ballades, rondeaux, and villanelles, emphasizing the revival of these French verse forms in English literature. The introduction highlights the rich heritage of these poetic styles and their significance in the landscape of poetry, reflecting a deep appreciation for the craft and its historical roots. The opening of the anthology includes a heartfelt dedication to Robert Louis Stevenson, as well as a lengthy preface explaining the selection process and the types of poems included. It discusses the growing popularity of these French poetic forms among English writers and the effort taken to assemble this collection. White draws attention to notable poets, outlines the history and rules surrounding the various forms, and expresses his hope that this volume will contribute to the further naturalization of these rhythmic structures within English poetry. Overall, the introduction sets a scholarly tone that prepares the reader for a detailed exploration of these intricate poetic styles. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
