Book excerpt: Excerpt from Critical Edition of the Discours De La Vie De Pierre De Ronsard Par Claude Binet: A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of Bryn Mawr College for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy This investigation was suggested by the observation that the beginning of Binet's biography (Edition of Becq de Fouquieres) is copied literally from the Elegie a Remy Belleau. M. Chamard had already drawn attention to the fact that the three versions of the biography show notable divergencies, but he gave no intimation of an intention of pursuing the investigation further, and the importance of Binet's work in the study of Ronsard made it appear worth while to examine the relation of the three redactions. The present edition is based upon manuscript copies of the editions of 1586, 1587 and 1597, made upon the request of Professor Foulet, for the library of Bryn Mawr College, in January and February, 1904, from the copies in the Bibliothcque Nationale. A careful comparison of the copies with the original texts was made by M. Joseph Aynard. It was learned, when this investigation was already more than half completed, that M. Paul Laumonier, whose important contributions to the study of Ronsard are well known, is also preparing a critical edition of the Discours of Binet, on which he has been at work for some time. M. Laumoniers articles on Ronsard contain no hint of his purpose. Moreover these articles themselves were not at first accessible to me. In view of the fact that my work has been quite independent of that of M. Laumonier, and that I had no intimation of his intention to publish a critical edition of Binet until my thesis was almost finished, I feel justified in publishing the results of my studies, while fully acknowledging M. Laumonier's claim to priority in this field of research. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
