The literary tradition has preserved three Artes Rhetoricae written for the last of the Valois kings, who reigned in France under the name of Henry III from 1574 to 1589. These three texts are Jacques Davy Du Perron's Avant-discours de rhetorique, ou Traitté de l'eloquence, Jacques Amyot's Projet de l'eloquence royale, and Germain Forget's Rhetorique françoise faicte particulierement pour le roy Henry 3. All three very likely originated as academic speeches pronounced at the Louvre, in the presence of Henry III, in the final sessions of the Palace Academy during the summer of 1579. This article offers a re-reading of the three treatises in order to situate them in the history of rhetoric. It aims to show how each author collects and presents teachings of the principal rhetorical traditions. Thus, Du Perron, inspired mainly by Quintilian and Cicero, proposes a kind of abridged version of the rhetorical thought of Latin Antiquity. Amyot, for his part, puts forth a synthesis of ancient Greek rhetorical theory starting with Plutarch, Dyonisius of Halicarnassus and Demetrius of Phalerus. Germain Forget provides an account of Renaissance innovations, by adopting the nomenclature of Peter Ramus under the rubric of elocutio. The objective of this essay is to shed light on the complementary nature of the three treatises, as well as to suggest a probable order in which they were presented to the King, following a logical gradation from the most general to the most specific.

World War II features in the background of a number works by Marguerite Duras that represent grief and mourning related to death brought about by war. Her scenario for Alain Resnais’s film Hiroshima mon amour (1959) exemplifies this concern for the emotional consequences of war. Several decades later, La Mort du jeune aviateur anglais reflects a similar theme of war-related grief and violence. In each of these works, the protagonists travel to a location where tragic war events have occurred and where social forms of memorialization exist. Here they come to terms with both general and personal loss. This article explores Marguerite Duras’s depiction of the rapport between travel and grieving, how memorial sites facilitate mourning and how these historical sites become established. Paul Ricoeur’s treatise La Mémoire, l’histoire, l’oubli provides us with a definition of grief and guides our comparison of these two works that echo each other. Hiroshima mon amour and La Mort du jeune aviateur anglais together illustrate how a journey to a site of former tragedy can be personally restorative.
