| Sumario: | [EN] Known as « recueils romains » because they were composed mainly while the French poet was on duty in Rome, Les Antiquités de Rome, Le Songe and Les Regrets by Du Bellay are brimming with aquatic and nautical metaphors which, while depicting his journey and suggesting its dangers, allow the poet to build up an esoteric language which readers are invited to decode in order to grasp the changes of the city. The aquatic element is used by Du Bellay as a narrative prism to embody the history of Rome from Rise to Fall. The fluctuation of water stands for the City’s inconstancy. But the poet also pictures thereby his own existential journey : a risky adventure the ending of which remains unpredictable. Du Bellay will have to grapple with exile and roaming. Moreover, under erotic figures, the sea waters lull and charm the traveler, misleading him into disaster. They describe worldly temptations as well, of which the courtesan is an eternal archetype. Aquatic metaphors however crystallize Du Bellay’s thoughts about Rome and about himself. His questioning of his own destiny meets the one about the world and the inexorable flow of time, carrying away both men and cities |
