"Spicilège" by Marcel Schwob is a literary work written in the late 19th century. The text delves into the life and legacy of the French poet François Villon, examining his influences, contemporary references, and the socio-historical context in which he lived. This exploration reveals Villon's profound impact on poetry, distinguishing him through his unique style and emotional depth, all while unraveling the complexities of his existence marked by misfortune and tumult. The opening of "Spicilège" presents an in-depth analysis of François Villon, tracing the roots of his literary fame back to the late 15th century and highlighting his connections to notable figures like Rabelais and Marot. The text meticulously details his uncertain origins, his upbringing under the care of Guillaume de Villon, and his tumultuous life filled with crime and exile.
