QR code
"Mirèio, a Provençal Poem" by Frédéric Mistral is a poem written in 1859. This twelve-canto epic tells the tragic story of Vincent and Mireille, two young Provençal lovers separated by social class. When Mireille's wealthy father rejects Vincent, a humble basketmaker, she embarks on a desperate journey across Provence's scorching landscape. Beyond its romantic tale, the poem serves as a celebration of Occitan language and Provençal culture, weaving in local legends and
landmarks throughout its narrative. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
