Let me give you anothe...Hello ! Nice work indeed ! <br />Let me give you another key for this song : there are many allusions to "pastorales" and "bergeries" or "pastourelles" (this is a huge tradition in French literature since the MA that inspired a lot of songs : "il pleut il pleut bergère" etc) here. As in bucolic Latin literature (where it comes from), it combines grace and youthful naivety with something more realistic and raw.<br /><br />The universe described, the actions, feelings, the tone, the language (vocabulary, syntax) — everything refers to it. <br /><br />Actually, "sabots, galoches" and "jupons" evoke this ideal and conventional universe more than reality for an educated Frenchman of the 20th century, although we can still wear it in some places around the 1940s. Same thing for the "berger" and his "aubade", "tarentelle" etc. Many linguistic or stylistic elements strongly evoke medieval or "archaic-like" literature ("guilleret, guillerette" , "je n'ai jamais aimé que vous" and its odd passage to the vouvoiement which makes one think of a quote, "lors, ma mie...", "Ton pied frappe et frappe la mousse" that sounds like a Ronsard's ode etc).<br /><br /><br /><br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3675807832604868087.post-89075666453120088312021-07-10T14:11:32.676+01:002021-07-10T14:11:32.676+01:00Snapchat is great way of messaging.
