| Summary: | French soldiers in the early 16th century sang a great deal, but their songs, which have been poorly preserved, have not aroused much interest among researchers. However, for the year 1521, a coherent corpus of songs has been preserved, including six from the siege of Mézières and three from Hesdin. Sung "to the tune of", these texts offer an extraordinary insight into the daily life and feelings of soldiers in the field, but also into a popular culture that is always difficult to grasp. Les soldats français au début du xvie siècle chantaient beaucoup, mais leurs chants, qui se sont mal conservés, n’ont guère suscité l’intérêt des chercheurs. On conserve cependant pour l’année 1521 un corpus documentaire cohérent d’une douzaine de chansons, dont six sur le seul siège de Mézières et trois sur celui d’Hesdin. Chantés « sur l’air de », ces textes offrent un extraordinaire aperçu de la vie quotidienne et du ressenti des soldats en campagne, mais aussi d’une culture populaire toujours difficile à appréhender. |
