Both forms of poetry draw on similar roots, both are equally accomplished, and the contest between them is largely amicable. The Judgment of Palaemon illustrates the almost symbiotic relationship between Renaissance Latin and French poetry, while exploring poets' motivation for choosing one language over another, the different challenges each form of writing involved, and the extent of the collaboration between different language communities. It focuses on some of the major writers of the period, as well as less well known ones, and on genres specific to humanist poetry. It shows that composing in Latin was often considered more natural, at a time when many Frenchmen's mother tongue was a non-standard French dialect or distinct language. 410 0$aMedieval and Renaissance Authors and Texts$v9. 606 $aFrench poetry$y16th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aLatin poetry, Medieval and modern$zFrance$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aFrench poetry$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aLatin poetry, Medieval and modern$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a841/.309 700 $aFord$b Philip$f1949-$0256587 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786133903321 996 $aThe judgment of Palaemon$93786762 997 $aUNINA
