«Sonnets d'amour et d'exil» is an anthology of sonnets by Joachim du Bellay, published by Actes Sud in paperback (128 pages, in French).
Du Bellay turned his exile in Rome into poetic material: nostalgia for Anjou, disappointment at the city's ruins, and satire. The anthology brings together pieces from L'Olive, Les Regrets, Les Antiquités de Rome and Songe, showing the evolution of a central figure of the Pléiade, a defender of the French language.
Published in 2021, it is part of the Lycée Anthologie collection and includes an epilogue by Adele Payen de la Garanderie and illustrations by François Olislaeger.
Aimed at secondary school students, it serves as classroom material for approaching French Renaissance poetry and the work of the Pléiade.
