I have no idea how much people from other countries know French lit, but I'd like you all to know that one of the people on this list is a woman.
I'm considering making a second poll, but I need a few more names.
I also have another Romanticism poll (mostly UK centred) here.
And here's my pinned post with more polls about art, literature, comics, etc.

Btw do you have headcanons for what kind of poetry Lupin would enjoy? I know there’s that one poem about the willow tree he recited in the Confessions of Arsene Lupin, but I’m curious about other people’s thoughts :D (I also failed to track down the author who wrote that poem?) Do you think he’d read William IX or Marie de France? I’m a literature major myself and I got take a little peek at medieval French poetry in my courses
Interesting question! I am unfortunately not much of a poetry person, so I'm probably not the best to ask what Lupin's taste in that area would be ^^'
Although that doesn't mean I have nothing to say on the matter hehe. First of, the willow tree poem is an excerpt from Lucie, élégie by Alfred de Musset. The whole poem is quite long, and it begins and ends with the stanza about the willow tree.
"Mes chers amis, quand je mourrai,
Plantez un saule au cimetière.
J’aime son feuillage éploré ;
La pâleur m’en est douce et chère,
Et son ombre sera légère
À la terre où je dormirai."
"Friends beloved, when I die,
Plant a willow over me,
Through its leaves the night will sigh,
Kindly will its shadow be,
And its drooping boughs shall weep,
O'er the earth wherein I sleep."
(not quite accurate as far as translation go I'd say, but that's the first official translation I found online, and translating poetry is SO HARD anyway, so I'm leaving it as is)
Secondly, there are literary references, quotes, nods, etc, everywhere within Lupin stories, whether from Lupin himself or from the narration (found this really neat article about intertextuality by Leblanc in Lupin, which lists most of what we can find and goes into a bit more details than I did here→) Looking at it from a watsonian perspective, this is simply Maurice Leblanc's way to reconcile more "classic" literature with the more "common" style of Lupin: by making his character quote Musset, Shakespeare, Chateaubriand, Milton or Pline, Leblanc elevates Lupin to a learned scholar, and signals that he, as an author, is also a reader of that kind of literature. From a Sherlockian perspective, it just makes sense that Lupin be well learned in everything: he is a man of culture, that's precisely what sets him apart from regular thieves. Going by what we can find in the text, he seems to favour XIXe authors and old classics, which is not very surprising, since, remember, this is mostly a reflection of Leblanc's own library. So I fear french medieval poetry might a bit out there in that context, but as far as headcanons go, I really see no reason why he wouldn't have something by Marie de France on his shelves! The man's eclectic 😌
Somewhat related, there's also Gérard Baupré the unfortunate aspiring poet from 813, who Lupin treats rather condescendingly, disparagingly even. Now of course Baupré is nothing remarkable, and Lupin is only using him as a pawn, which explains this attitude (+ Baupré dares fall in love with the same woman as Lupin, and even *gasp* pursue her!). But it's interesting with how Lupin adresses him, always calling him "poet", making a mockery of it: further proof imo that Lupin is very much presented to us as a literary connaisseur, and in this case specifically poetry, thus making him able to judge whatever Baupré's scribbling, and evidently he doesn't think much of it.
And there you go, hope this was somewhat what you were looking for :D honestly I think headcanoning Lupin as a reader of pretty much anything really, is fair game. I like how french/European his references are (because, again, so are Leblanc's), but I'd be interested in him reading outside of European literary canon as well!

Introduction/Who am I?
Okay, so since I’m back on here again in the ongoing exodus, I thought I’d better do an introductory post for anyone who wants to follow as well as refresh old friends and followers. Open to new friendships so feel free to send me asks, reply, or whatever if you want to talk.
Francesca (Fran, Frankie for short)
Englishwoman
Lesbian, f4f
Cat person (see previous bullet)
I enjoy writing although I’m aware I’ll probably never be published so it’s mostly just something I do for my own personal catharsis and expression.
Night owl
Haute couture enjoyer
Learning French (c. B1, B2 reading level), want to learn European Portuguese, Spanish, Latin, Dutch, interested in language acquisition more broadly
I’ve always been a voracious reader so some favourite authors, poets and essayists: Sappho, Gustave Flaubert, Charles Baudelaire, Arthur Rimbaud, Théophile Gautier, Gérard de Nerval, Marcel Proust, Alain-Fournier, Jorge Luis Borges, Camilo Castelo Branco, Yukio Mishima, Jean Genet,  Anaïs Nin, Novalis, Simone Weil, Jacques Lacan, Plato, James Joyce,  Emily Brontë, Jane Austen, Oscar Wilde, George Orwell, Vladimir Nabokov, John Donne, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Emily Dickinson, Fyodor Dostoevsky. My favourite novel (and maybe favourite work of art full stop) is Madame Bovary.
Cinema is my other great passion and one I’ve spent the last few years particularly delving into - some favourite directors/auteurs: Carl Dreyer, Michael Powell (& Emeric Pressburger), Manoel de Oliveira, Alfred Hitchcock, Howard Hawks, Yasujiro Ozu, Francis Ford Coppola, Brian de Palma, Raoul Ruiz, Douglas Sirk, Josef von Sternberg, Ernst Lubitsch, Erich von Stroheim, F.W.

Also enjoy art/painting, aesthetics, fashion, memes, food and (maybe too much) drink. Lots more that I can’t think of at the moment so maybe a sequel in the future when I feel like being inward-looking again?

Louis Arlette chante Ronsard et la Dame à la Licorne
Tumblr media
Louis Arlette est de retour avec ses Sacrilèges, un album comprenant cinq poèmes qu'il ose "déshonorer", affirme-t-il par provocation en parlant de ses adaptations pop rock. Avec les notes de Louis Arlette, les poèmes de Charles Baudelaire, Pierre de Ronsard, Alfred de Musset, Gérard de Nerval et François Villon sont magnifiés.
Tumblr media
On vous présente en extrait A son âme, poème écrit par Ronsard à la fin de sa vie avec cette vidéo session tournée à Paris, au Musée de Cluny, devant la tapisserie de la Dame à la Licorne. Il a déclaré récemment : "Je ne me suis jamais senti complètement à l’aise dans l’univers de la chanson française. Je trouve qu’elle a parfois un côte trop conventionnel dans la manière d’appréhender la musique. Il y a bien sûr des exceptions mais le texte prend tellement le dessus en France qu’on n’a pas toujours envie de travailler le son, sauf dans l’électro." Découvrez la vidéo de Ronsard et La Dame à la Licorne :

Bonjour maman! I hope you are doing well. I am an avid reader and lover of poetry and I have wanted to read French poetry for a long, long time. Could you please suggest some poems/collections (B1 - B2) for me?
Hello dear,
It would be hard to make a universal list for this because B1/B2 can look many different ways, the best advice I have is to check out famous authors and see at first glance if their stuff looks too hard for you or not. Here are the basics and an example:
B1/B2 with a good dictionary:
Correspondance by Charles Baudelaire
Dans les bois by Paul Verlaine
La demoiselle by Théophile Gautier
Les malheureux by Louise Ackermann ♀
Crépuscule by Guillaume Apollinaire
Les yeux d'Elsa by Louis Aragon (which I would claim to be the most beautiful love poem in the world)
L'hirondelle by Sophie d'Arbouville ♀
Chanson à boire by Nicolas Boileau
La nuit de printemps by Théodore de Banville
L'ennui de Léonore by Victoire Babois ♀
Les feuilles mortes by Jacques Prévert
Regrets d'amour by Pierre Corneille
Des vivants et des morts - Andrée Chedid ♀
Le désir by Anatole France
À Aurore by George Sand ♀
Par un mauvais temps by Alfred de Musset
Melancholia by Victor Hugo
Le bonheur est mélancolique by Cécile Sauvage ♀
C1/C2 but give it a try anyway:
Première soirée by Arthur Rimbaud
Luth compagnon de ma calamité by Louise Labé ♀
La sagesse by Alphonse de Lamartine
Prière de Socrate by Gérard de Nerval
Le temps de vivre by Anna de Noailles ♀
Le songe by Charles-Augustin Sainte-Beuve
Ce que dit l'homme de peine by Paul Éluard
Élégie du printemps by Pierre de Ronsard
La grande douleur que je porte by Christine de Pisan ♀
Poème à Uranie - Voltaire
La prison by Alfred de Vigny
L'amour et la folie by Jean de la Fontaine
Ô qu'une sagesse profonde by François de Malherbe
L'âme errante by Marceline Desbordes-Valmore ♀
Les fleurs by Stéphane Mallarmé
Le lundi à Vêpres by Jean Racine
C'était novembre by Vénus Khoury-Ghata (1937-) ♀
Holy shit:
Escargots by Francis Ponge (XX, surrealism)
Nous ne sommes fâchés by Joachim Du Bellay (XVI)
Ballade des dames du temps jadis by François Villon (XV)
Lai du Frêne by Marie de France ♀ (XII)
Je brûle avec mon coeur by Théodore Aggripa d'Aubigné (XVI)
Plus:
Entire anthology about female poetry
Hope this helps! x
