Clément Marot and Religion - A Re-Assessment in the Light of His Psalm Paraphrases

A far-reaching analysis of Clément Marot's poetry (mainly his Psalm paraphrases) shows that this poet was much more than a frivolous court poet; he was touched by the humanist yearning to restore old texts (in this case the Jewish Psalter) to their original glory. In his translations he was inspired by Martin Bucer's Commentary.
