Baguenaude

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The baguenaude ( French: baguenaude "empty pod of the yellow bladder bush ", in the figurative sense of the word "lappalie") is a joking genre of French poetry . Like Fatras and Frottola, she strings together paradoxical , incoherent ideas or processes. The stanzas are of different lengths, the verses are usually eight-syllable and with impure rhymes . The first Baguenaudes appeared in Jean Molinet's Art de Rhétorique (1493) and by Jehan de Wissocq .
