Translated by François Guizot
A narrative poem written during the late 16th century. The poem is an exploration of love and desire through the mythological figures of Venus, the goddess of love, and Adonis, a beautiful young man who is indifferent to love. The work focuses on themes of unrequited love, beauty, and the inevitability of loss. In the poem, Venus passionately pursues Adonis, who prefers the thrill of hunting to romantic love. Despite her fervent advances, Adonis remains resistant and somewhat disdainful towards her affections. As the story unfolds, Venus pleads with Adonis to embrace love and warns him of the dangers he may face while hunting, particularly from the ferocious wild boar. Ultimately, he neglects her warnings, which leads to his tragic death at the tusks of the beast. Heartbroken, Venus transforms her grief into a flower that memorializes Adonis, symbolizing both the beauty and the fragility of love. The poem serves not only as a tale of love's bittersweet nature but also as a meditation on beauty and mortality.
