A mazing of the text

"A Mazing of the Text explores the multifaceted nature of the labyrinth as manifest in selected French Texts from the sixteenth to the twentieth century. Works by Joachim Du Bellay, Theophile de Viau, Saint-Amant, Thomas Corneille, Jean Racine, Stephane Mallarme, and Marguereite Yourcenar are examined in light of the metaphorical reflective capacity and the pluridimensional quality of mythic signification."--BOOK JACKET.
