米洛依
Mistral"s most important work is Mirèio (Mireille), published in 1859, after eight years of effort. Mirèio, a long poem in Proven?al consisting of twelve songs, tells of the thwarted love of Vincent and Mireille, two young Proven?al people of different social backgrounds. The name Mireille (Mirèio in Provence) is a doublet of the wordmeraviho which means wonder.Mistral used the occasion not only to promote his language but also to share the culture of an area, speaking about, among other things, Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer, where according to legend the dragon, Tarasque, was driven out, and of the famous and ancient Venus of Arles. He prefaced the poem with a short notice about Proven?al pronunciation.The poem tells how Mireille"s parents wish her to marry a Proven?al landowner, but she falls in love with a poor basket maker named Vincent, who loves her as well. After rejecting three rich suitors, a desperate Mireille, driven by the refusal of her parents to let her marry Vincent, runs off to Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer to pray to the patrons of Provence to change her parents" minds. Having forgotten to bring a hat, she falls victim to the heat, dying in Vincent"s arms under the gaze of her parents.Mistral dedicated his book to Alphonse Lamartine as follows:“To Lamartine:To you, I dedicate Mireille: It is my heart and my soul; It is the flower of my years; It is bunch of grapes from La Crau, leaves and all, a peasant"s offering.”Lamartine wrote enthusiastically: “I will tell you good news today! A great epic poet is born ... A true Homeric poet in our time; ... Yes, your epic poem is a masterpiece; ... the perfume of your book will not evaporate in a thousand years.”Mirèio was translated into some fifteen European languages, including into French by Mistral himself. In 1863, Charles Gounod made it into an opera, Mireille.
