In poetic responses to the French civil wars, the wounded political body of France is aligned with This chapter calls attention to the proverbs that punctuate Ronsard’s unfinished epic poem La Franciade. It proposes that, as literary forms, the proverbs share the massively distributed, viscous and non-local qualities of Timothy Morton’s hyperobjects. In Ronsard’s 1572 epic the significance of the aftermath of the Trojan war turns out to have extended far beyond Virgil’s Aeneid and the foundation of Rome, to the foundation of Paris and a yet-to-be-realized early modern French empire. La Franciade’s proverbs challenge their readers to perceive and respond to these vastly expanded relations, even as they progress through apparently local narrative time., On this basis, they might also equip their readers to engage with the dissonant scales of ongoing global ecological crisis.

In The Ecological Thought (2012), Timothy Morton calls us to recognize the interconnectedness of all things by rethinking the relationship between cosmic and local. He points to Raphael’s speech to Adam in John Milton’s Paradise Lost, which compares Earth to the infinite cosmos, as an example of this ecological thought. An analogous cosmic viewpoint occurs in Guillaume du Bartas’s La Sepmaine (1578). This hexameron both highlights and complicates ecocriticism’s applicability to early modern texts. Whereas Milton’s text responds to Morton’s call by scaling Earth in relation to the macrocosmic, Du Bartas’s does the opposite: it scales the cosmic to the hyperlocal—the observer’s body. This earlier work thus offers a converse avenue by which to arrive at the ecological thought.

This chapter takes up the French poet’s most famous ode ‘Mignonne, allons voir si la rose…’ in order to ask a simple but important question: what are the barriers to close-reading a poem such as this one, a poem made of ‘signs’, if we (also) try to access through it the nature—or Nature— of which it perhaps claims to be an imitation? To explore such a question, Usher experiments with three ways of reading the ode. He first explores the cultural/historical approach offered by book history. A second approach seeks out connections between Ronsard’s poem and early modern botany’s own discussion of roses. The third and final method strives to get beyond the poem as cultural artefact by drawing on contemporary plant theory (Jeffrey Nealon, Michael Marder, Luce Irigaray).
本章以这位法国诗人最著名的颂歌“米尼翁，我是玫瑰……”为例，提出一个简单但重要的问题:如果我们(也)试图通过它来接近自然——或自然——它可能声称是模仿的，那么仔细阅读这样一首由“符号”组成的诗的障碍是什么?为了探究这一问题，亚瑟尝试了三种解读颂歌的方法。他首先探讨了书籍历史提供的文化/历史方法。第二种方法是寻找朗萨德的诗和早期现代植物学对玫瑰的讨论之间的联系。第三种方法，也是最后一种方法，通过借鉴当代植物理论(Jeffrey Nealon, Michael Marder, Luce Irigaray)，努力超越作为文化人工制品的诗歌。

This chapter proposes to unravel the many ecological underpinnings of Diogenes of Sinope’s Cynicism. Perhaps thinking cynically about climate change requires going back to Ancient Cynicism in general, and Diogenes of Sinope in particular; within the argument of this volume, this chapter explores the resurgence of Diogenes and the particular tone of the works of François Rabelais and Michel Montaigne. It makes a convincing case for reading both of these authors less as polar opposites and more as thinkers of the ecological shift in early modern France.
