en-wikipedia-org-7017		La Pléiade - Wikipedia			.html	text/html	1296	172	67	La Pléiade (French pronunciation: [la plejad]) is the name given to a group of 16th-century French Renaissance poets whose principal members were Pierre de Ronsard, Joachim du Bellay and Jean-Antoine de Baïf. The French Renaissance Pléiade[edit] The core group of the French Renaissance "Pléiade"—Pierre de Ronsard, Joachim du Bellay and Jean-Antoine de Baïf—were young French poets who met at the Collège de Coqueret, where they studied under the famous Hellenist and Latinist scholar Jean Dorat; they were generally called the "Brigade" at the time. The ideal was not one of slavish imitation, but of a poet so well-versed in the entire corpus of Ancient literature (du Bellay uses the metaphor of "digestion") that he would be able to convert it into an entirely new and rich poetic language in the vernacular. The use of the term "Pléiade" to refer to the group the French poets around Ronsard and Du Bellay is much criticised.	./cache/en-wikipedia-org-7017.html	./txt/en-wikipedia-org-7017.txt
